    Default This may sound silly, but maybe you feel it a little, too.

    After spending 6-8 hours a night, 5 nights a week at work on Broncomania (or what's left of it) for over a year, I have grown very attached to it. It sounds silly that one could grow attached to a non-material item let alone a website....but I have.

    And with this, I feel a strong sense of loyalty to Broncomania. Kudos to those who envisioned making a website as beautiful as this one, and then creating it. But does anyone feel a little like they have betrayed a loyal friend and joined this revolutionary Broncos forum?

    Or I could be completely off my rocker here too.

    Edit: Someone might be saying to themselves "why not just post in both?" My answer would be that like my football team, I can only have 1 obsession....it wouldn't feel right to be to split up my time. I have to give it all...I don't know if this makes things more confusing?

    You don't have to quit one to post at the other. A lot of people post at more
    than one message board. Maners post on Mania, and those from Mania post
    in the Mane. There is also BroncosFreak, whose members also belong to one
    or more of the others.

    Our Admin, Tned, still posts on Mania, and he has already announced his
    intention to keep on doing it.

    I personally believe we have a better board, and it is going to get even better
    as it develops and accumulates more members. But that doesn't mean it is the
    only one.

    Just go with your heart. No one here or there (hopefully) is going to judge you
    for that.

    You can still post at Broncomania. I will myself, but now I have a place to post and talk football with members who no longer visit there or who have been banned for absurd reasons.

    It's like having more than one sports channel.

    I'm actually on a few forums myself .
    Theres about 2 forums That I post on regularly(Broncomania and another one)

    I use to post on Broncosfreak but I liked Broncomania a lot more.

    It always takes me time to post on new message boards but I know everyone on this site so it shouldn't be too hard to post on.

    I will try to recruit people to join on this site as well and help it grow.

    I completely understand. I think most of us feel that way to some degree. On the other hand, many of us feel that the direction the forum has taken over the last 6-12 months have left it feeling less and less 'special' like it used to.

    I can only speak for myself, but I don't feel I have to be forum monogamous. I will continue to post on BM, and obviously spend a significant amount of my time here.

    im judging already...







    ...

    but after all is said and done, i kinda feel the same way, i feel dirty for leaving my first and only message board that is broncomania...

    and i simply do not spend enough time on the computer to be on more than one site...

    as time went on, i posted less and less on mania, simply because i found it stagnant and repetitive...

    ill try to remain on both but i think eventually i will have to make a choice...

    and i feel as though i somehow owe some loyalty to mania...

    so i may not like my choice...

    i kinda dont like the position im in, and although a message board wont make me lose any sleep over worries, when im online i kinda feel empty...?

    thats my two cents...

    I enjoy the people. They make the board and I visit the ones that have the people that interest me. I stay true to my team and myself at all times and enjoy and learn from other people. I think you will find happiness in that approach.
