[img]One contributor mentioned an evolving membership/contributor base which I suppose means some ebb and flow in terms of overall activity and the number of interesting threads.

For what it's worth I think that all contributors (and particularly senior/hero members) should do their bit to encourage the membership base to flourish and welcome new folk.

Maybe I'm wrong but at times I perceive new contributors get a somewhat cold shoulder from the so called heroes who prefer only to comment/reply on each others threads and comments. There is also the gauntlet each new contributor has to run through when the heroes  bring up the " you're a kid on summer holidays" stance. 

It would be nice to think that all board members remember they too were once newbies.

Anyway my door is always open.

ffs, school holidays not over yet...................
have to agree, though ive been around a bit, im not too regular a poster, but the amount of threads ive stopped in my tracks because im not in the clique would be embarassing if i gived a toss lol, but agree with you on that point, (if you can make sense of what im saying)
do have to say its not the craic it used to be, not the same volume of posts to read etc

Maybe it's not because you're a relative newbie. Maybe it's because your talking shite

I've never seen a newbie with something interesting to say being shot down. I've seen newbies who want this place to be like Football365 being given short shrift alright, but I think that's fair enough. Nothing against F365, and if that's your thing fair enough, but I think there a lot of people on this forum who've grown old with it I was about 25 when I joined it!!

Thanks (AZ) Awfully

Hi shut your pipehole Mr 86 posts. OK?

[laoislad]

Another decent thing about the board is meeting some of the lads who post here.
I've met about a dozen and all were sound.
Well except for Shamrock Shore, the hoor spent the whole time trying to sell me a set of jerseys and some hurls.

I dont post that much compared to many but there isnt a day goes by when im not reading the board.
I think its the best website on the web and like reading the Antrim Football Threads the most (though not enough people post on it!)

General Discussion Board is v good but i miss the New and Improved Hot Ladies Thread NSFW !

We need an Even Newer and Improved Hot Ladies Thread!

[Tony Baloney]

(b) gaaboard.com has done very well to last like it has and keep up it's popularity as long as it has.

The board's stats would suggest that the place has been heading out of fashion for a while now. There's only half the chat there was three years ago.

Maybe the quality of chat has improved!

Anyway, those stats - fcuk there has been some shite talked about Derry football!

The reason this board is great is the Iris thread and the Rachel Riley thread, some craic. Also for all the shite and arguments you get some good stuff from the board, whether it is scandal, good jokes or a few videos or advice.

[JimStynes]

Still not half the craic it used to be though. Mods kill the craic!!

[Mayo4Sam]

I think for a while all threads turned into the same arguments, destroyed the board for a couple of years but lately it's been improving again I think.
Some new posters provide great craic, like Olly, poster of the year IMHO.
The mayo lads have a wealth of information on everything mayo related, even I'd Barney isn't seen enough.

Also think its gas to see lads grow up on the board, I remember O'Neill making up a fee different aliases for himself and coming on backing up his opinion. There was a dope from Dublin that did it a couple of years ago and forgot who he was logged in as, swore blind he wasn't both posters, a good laugh.

I think in general we've stayed away from the reservoir dubs, HS standard

Really? Could you point me in the right direction, or even a little hint?
