The place has become too PC .. the county threads are good for local game info. Though some people are way too sensitive.
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

We need to chill out stop the posturing, trolling, faux-offence, ridicule and remember this is an anonymous forum.

And if you think its boring now........

Twitter, FB, etc. killed much of the interest in forums like this about a decade ago. All of a sudden people had an easier, less obscure way to chat shite on the internet.

A certain appetite for forums still exists though, especially among those with a diehard interest in particular subjects. But you have to make an effort with the place to attract new contributors, who in turn create the content we're all here to read.

This forum makes very, very little effort to attract new posters. Things like cleaning up thread titles (especially those relating to specific matches or competitions), merging or deleting duplicate threads, and encouraging discussion on certain topics by opening new threads would all make the forum more attractive. In short, more active moderation would go a ways to helping things.

Anybody here post on the old Debate Central board? Used to be some great slagging in there because it was uncensored. Some boys would get endless hours of fun "hun-baiting" and winding up the prods, and to be fair to the prods they gave as good as they got, which was kinda admirable on a fenian-dominated board.

From the Bunker

The happy days of all sorts of counties breaking new ground in the '00's was when this Board started up. There weren't many counties in that decade or the decade before who did not have a year that they could remember. If you could not enjoy your own county doing well you could piggy back on the back of a non traditional county doing well.

But that seems to have gone. We are back to 2 or 1 team dominated provinces. A back door that prolongs the agony for the the lesser lights.

That romance seems to have died.

And then there is Dublin.

It's far from a discussion board it's a my opinion is right board, and if you dare disagree I'll run to the mods crying like a baby, in fairness the mods with are like VAR totally inept and led to many a good contributor leaving or getting banned.

No one is putting a gun to your head and forcing you to stay here if you don't like it.

Gabe has you sussed anyway - I smell rereg. 😎

The GAA section is awesome for keeping up to date with matches, especially club matches, this section is for the self indulgent who actually think their opinion matters, maybe you fall into said category.  ;)

For club info the Armagh fans tend to go to orchardfansforum and so too probably for a lot of the county talk.

In general I just think the board is a lot quieter with not as many people logging on. Hard to get a debate going when there aren't enough people around to voice opinions.

When folk were voicing opinions everyone was falling over themselves to be offended and running to Mods, ironically the mods were voicing some of the said opinions, no wonder folk stopped posting.
