Or maybe you'd prefer a twitter style helldump of reaction gifs instead of content? Topics I mentioned are lame in any format as -at best- they’re directed at the teams powers that be where we’ll never know, ergo no right answer. Being a Mod is fine, being a nursery school moderator isn’t and requires financial compensation. Now take you seat, Jimmy. 1 4

Draconator Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 As someone who signed up in like 2003 and rarely posted until the end of last year, there is a definite learning curve in regards to posting here. Make one comment that isn't factually correct, and the long timers and those in the know (which is vast) will "aggressively correct" you. It takes a bit of time to really know how the flow of this board goes. And to any new posters who post here, you are not going to beat @YoloinOhio for Bills and NFL breaking stories. He already knows how many yards Allen is going to pass for in the SuperBowl, and is withholding the info, kinda like the President's knowledge of UFO's, just so he can break the news. Don't bother trying. 2 2 1 3 1

That typically comes with humor, if you want it to succeed There's nothing wrong with those threads. If you don't want to read threads started by people excited about Sunday's game, there are a number of other similar websites/forums dedicated to a whole range of topics, one of which might better suit your temperament 2 1
mannc Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 Personally, I miss the "twins separated at birth" threads, featuring mugshots of the opposing team... 2

BigDingus Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 Are we really gate-keeping thread posts now? lol I feel like we should be happy how much interest there is, even if the topics aren't the most elite subjects for only the highest of intellectuals 😂 If anything, it sure beats offseason posts where everyone is bored out of their minds, and every free agent/trade option is a potential Bills signing (is Ertz signed yet)? 1 2

muppy Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 I'll go on the record and say I want zero drama with moderators. If I ever type anything even slightly snarky or wrong please take it that my heart was not about raising rabble. I guess Im considering myself newbie since only recently posted here more regularly. Peace Out everybody GO BILLS!~! signed fangirl muppy
Don Otreply Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) But but but, what about, me, wanting to express my thoughts and needs in my own personalized thread? Well…? I’m waiting…, Not that there is anything wrong with that. Go Bills!!! Edited October 8, 2021 by Don Otreply 1
