    Default Can we just get it over with and rename this site Pacquiao 24/7?

    I'm really fed up with this. I'm sure this thread will be moved, but my Saddoboxing experience has been pretty much ruined. I am considering leaving the site once this season of the sports book is over.

    So to all you Pacfans out there (with the exception of PacFan and C-Lo) you win.

    Bro Killa... It's a normal forum phenomenon that so many fans will be starting or creating threads on the most interesting and worth discussing issues about the hottest boxer of the moment...

    I agree that there's too much created at the same time just like this very moment but MODs will manage to have them in control like merging all these threads... We have the Admin and MODs to manage things out...

    Hope you will reconsider your plan...

    This is in the top five strangest sentences in saddoboxing history.

    You think there's too many Pacquaio threads.

    It's Pacquiao era, bro. Live with it.
    Otherwise, create your own site.

    We should just have system where MODs or a selected panel can vote people off the site. The forum is seriously is trouble. I love talking about Pacquiao but JESUS have I been tired seeing his name all over this forum too! I wouldn't have started my Pacfan rant thread if it wasn't such a big deal...

    Yea...I don't think anything you could possibly say would help anyone chance their decision for staying on this site. You're probably the reason everyone who wants to get out of here is leaving.

    I'm in the same boat as those that think there is an overload of Pac going on around here. I have no qualms with people discussing Manny and talking about the boxing. But Manny's name is even getting in threads that have absolutely nothing to do with him. And it is perpetuated by the same old people with the same old act.

    Today we have seen the same thing going on. Multiple threads started on pretty much the same topic "Blah, blah thinks Manny is god". And another thread that descended so bad that it had to be moved because it resorted to petty name calling. And all over the place you will see various threads littered with Manny despite him having little relevance to those issues.

    Spicoli made the good point that we have lost a quality poster this last week. Mick might have his own reasons for leaving but I'm sure he wasn't a fan of all this. And now with Sheep making threats to leave. Well, it's a shame. A lot of us have voiced concerns. I don't know why serious huggers don't just go away to Pac forums and just come out to play here when they something meaningful or new to say. Why pollute a general boxing forum with a one track agenda? Just seems so pointless to me.

    Those who are having too much of Manny threads should live w/ this situation. You can't do anything about it. It happens in all boxing forums because Manny Pacquao is the staple subject of the moment. You can't blame the guy for achieving so much and you can't blame his fans for glorifying his achievements. Anyway, everyone has his freedom to do what he wants. If you cannot stomach the glut of Pacquiao threads, you are free to leave the forum and come back another day when the coast is clear.

    You have 28 posts in a sum of THREE years and you would deem yourself fit enough too tell other active & loyal members who believe in what this site is to simply jog on You have to be a plant

    One member does not make a forum just as one boxer does not make the sport.Get over your fetish already.

    Naah... I will be happy if you stay... You know, the more the merrier... The more people involved in the discussion, the better...

    Actually I started 2 PAC threads today (the Cotto and Bert Sugar comments) which were eventually merged into one thread... Maybe you were overwhelmed by the number PAC threads seen on the main board... New ones and many old ones too (as old as started years ago )... This is just some kind of forum phenomenon.... PAC the hottest subject today but maybe it will just die down weeks, months or a year from now...

    Actually there are so many boxing topics on the daily basis but we don't really need to pay attention to each and every topic... Normally we only post replies to the ones we're interested in or we have some info/knowledge to contribute... On our own we can already control what topics we want to read or not...

    I'm sure you can deal with these things that's annoying your very existence on this board... You can do it Killa... One way is to simply ignore them...

    Hoping that you will stay for good...

    Wow!! Good decision Boss Saddo... At least those numerous PAC threads scattered all over the main board are now confined in one place... MODs will have lesser work managing/merging those numerous PAC threads...

    I also appreciate the open language policy for this new PAC board...

    Lastly I hope Mr. Killa will reconsider his plans to leave this forum (due to annoying PAC threads)... Hope he's starting to smile right now...

    Although I don't as annoyed by Saddo/Head/Pac/Xadu/Pactookadumpboxer as everyone else, I do think that things are getting a bit ridiculous, especially when he have threads about a boxer going to another boxer's fight or what two common opponents of two boxers MIGHT think IF these boxers were to ever face each other. There's some sh*t that just don't deserve a thread, & isn't an interesting topic. Just because people reply doesn't mean it's a good topic, just like just because people vote for the BNP (an extreme racist political party in UK) it doesn't make them a good political party. I remember Mick doing some great posts about lower weight boxers from the 60s & 70s & it was a great way of finding out about fighters I knew nothing about, but they would often struggle to get onto a 2nd page of replies. Does that mean they were pointless? No, it just represents we get a mass of forum members with nothing constructive to say about boxing as a sport, but who are basically WWE fans who've drifted into following a boxer (usually at least one of ODLH, Pac or Cotto)

    Anyway, Greg, I implore you not to leave, what with Mick leaving, it would be a huge blow to the forum, & particularly on the statistical side where you make such a big impact.

    Anyway back to The artist formerly known as SaddoBoxer, I think as irritating as posts can be, he has toned it down marginally from the point we were at prior to the Hatton fight & after the ODLH fight. My irritance comes from these 'new' members who seem to either mention Pac in every thread, or to try & put PBF, JMM or occasionally Mosley down in something that has nothing to do with them. There are other boxers outside Pacquiao & those who might face him, I remember a Berto thread turning into how Pac would beat him senseless for his '7th Divisional Title making him THE GREATEST BOXER OF ALL TIME' etc. It just takes the piss with the amount of people who want to talk about other divisions, fighters & maybe learn something new about the sport.
