Kinda miss the old days on this board
Seems there was more activity, more exchanges between boxing fans. Seems like the posts were better and more creative. I don't know, maybe it's my imagination... but it also seems like some of the better, veteran posters have gone, while at the same time it seems we have more hot-headed newbies. Oh well... that being said, it's still the best boxing forum around. Hope to be coming into saddo's for years to come.
Re: Kinda miss the old days on this board
I have got sick of the same questions.
Mostly ones that start, What if ?
What if I just have a sleep and the new lot work it out.:bag:

everyone was a newbie at some point
Re: Kinda miss the old days on this board
People tend to come and go or else just go, but that's life on the internet. Some actually stay and that is always good to see. I think on the main board new stories are a little slower to emerge and here on the other boards there is less mischief being created. That is because El Gamo and Wacko aren't posting anymore and Booze and Bilbo are too quiet these days.

Yes... that's true. But I like to think some of us at least tried to earn our stripes in the beginning.

Well i've been here longer than you so i know you aint talking about me :cool:
I think the problem is that VD went civil on us.... VD was like a pitbull without a leash when it came to noobs. What happened? :D
VD, your letting all the hot heads steal your thunder. Do something!!! :o :o
Na seriously, we've never really been elitist here so (apart from the odd welcome arse biting from VD) we just go with the flow and in a way that's a good thing.
I always feel that if your not happy with the way things are going, why not contribute accordingly?
I'm somewhat inflammatory most of the time so right now I'm being hypocritical but then again, I've never really been one to lead by example... Hence why Big H is a Mod and I'm not :mad:
;D

What. You've only been here a few months longer than me. :)
But yeah... it's the non-elitist atmosphere here that has kept me coming back throughout the years. I'm not gonna lie. I enjoy watching the occasional butt-kicking initiation given out by the likes of VD once in awhile. It's a guilty pleasure, sure... but it livens up the place periodically. But I also enjoy seeing the old vets chime in once in awhile. Nothing like seeing these old fogies from 2003 come in and post every now and then.
;D

Its not all bad: Soon you will be slightly deaf, short or long sighted, forgetful,a bit sore when you wake up. You will cease to care what you wear or when or what anybody else thinks of you. You can say No whenever you wish to and call people on bullshit when you do hear it. So you find new freedoms including a new take on freedom of speech out in public
That is usually unpopular but adds to the action or reaction ;D.
(Also new freedoms eventuate because you can carry a nasty stick around with you legally. ) Poking youngsters out of my way is something i have look forwards to.

Well, being old's got to have SOME perks.

Re: Kinda miss the old days on this board
Maybe we should start making our own fun. My suggestion is that we watch more boxing and talk about it.
