Ive done nothing but say good things about BM here and they are now treating me like a traitor there - ive been there for 4 freakin years, have always been outspoken and now im just any ol member it hurts my feelings more than anything really

what do you mean their treating you like a traitor? I am curious to know...PM me if you want to...that is if you even want to say.

But like Tned said...we are not here to bash that board.I won't...theres no
reason too...simple...if your not happy there...then this gives you a nice
alternative...

I don't know, maybe it was getting stagnant over there or something but I don't think anybody should consider this board a "rival" board by any means. It's free will for whoever chooses to post here or there, so why certain people think we are invading on their turf or whatever, is beyond me.

Maybe I really did hate the changes more than I thought I did....hmmm...

Reid...you said what I was thinking and I definately like it better here!
I was there for almost 4 years and it was fun and then the fun went away!
Thats too bad really! But what can you do...nothing...the changes were not
ours to make or like I guess...

That's why I've made comments that sometimes we outgrow things. 1,2,3 maybe even 4 yrs from now this site may not be what it's like now. 4yrs from now my son will be 14 and I'll let him get involved in these message boards and I'll walk away.

I can't even click on BM unless I go to my computer history. It says Bad Gateway.

That's how the Broncos new site is, too. Go to denverbroncos.com and see if you have the same problem...

I post on both....seems that I may start posting here more often though....

Never been banned....never been negged....I am an angel

I really like the feel of a group of posters who all know each other and respect each other, and that's what this is.

Considering all that, I'm splitting my time between the boards.

I feel like I owe a little bit to BM, if it changes a little, then so be it, I'll change with it. I like the direction this place is going, and I'll stick with this and help it grow.

I'm going to stick in both places, and I still like both.

ive never been banned....only negged once but maybe i went too far in my own sarcasm and might have deserved it. sometimes we take risk when we post and you never know how the outcome will be percieved until later.

im pretty tempted to get myself banned at BM....purely because im feeling pretty rebelious and this site rocks like the old BM.

i do have another account on BM.....so hmmmm might try it with that one first.

It became monotonous.

Always the same old ...... stuff.

I never felt particularly happy. People were always either:

A: Attacking me for liking the Browns (I can understand to a degree; but deciding to come after me while giving Charger fans, Raider fans, and Chiefs fans a free ride?) Nuh-Uh .. that's not right.

B: Attacking me for my political beliefs. People knew how I felt politically - people know what I value and hold in high regard. So, they attack me for them and attack me again and again.

There were days I wondered:

"What new thing are they going to do today in an attempt to attack me?"

And I do hope that it doesn't get like that here.

People are people, CR. Whatever you got there, you are eventually going to
get some of it here . . . .and anywhere else you go. But we are trying to
make this a different board. As to your being a rival fan, we want you here,
but remember these are Broncos fans, and Broncos fans don't always have
nice things to say about other teams . . . yours or any of the other 31. The
teams of rival fans are always subject to little side comments on any board.

Regarding your political beliefs, they are very different from most others
here or, again, anywhere else. We will try to keep you free of incurring
unprovoked attacks. However, when you enter the smack forum and P&R,
just remember that your team and your beliefs, respectively, become fair game.

But you really are a valued member here. Don't forget that.

And don't forget you always have access to that little Report Post button
to the upper right.

I'd rather not use that. Back at, you know where. One of the mods told me to use it whenever I had a problem. So, I did. Then, I got under the admin's skin for "overusing it". So, I stopped using that unless it was one of those Porn Spammers.

I'd like to say that I don't care what people have to say about me - but unfortunately I do.

I've gotten 3 negs in the last 2 weeks, none of them signed.

So I think the consensus is......we all like this site better.

I have nothing to lose so I will say it for all of us.

I am not PC, like BM is. I have always told it like it is and unfortunately got banned for doig so.

SO, I will say it again for all of you who don't want to say it.....WE LIKE THIS SITE BETTER!!

If not for the way BM was doing business ...NONE of you would be here. So obviously there was a problem.

If they took care of their folks, then Broncos Forums would have never existed.

I thank Steve at Bm and some of the MOds for never reinstating me. If you would have, I would once again be sucked into BM and had my blinders on. But now I don't, and have no reason to have blinders on.

I know their MODS ( ha ha ha ha ) scan this site and want to have all of you back.

But the funny thing is.......THEY didn't think YOU would actually go through with it and now that you have....the JOKE is on them.

Damn Tned!... You got a neg for that letter? Yea I hate when cowards pull that stuff as well. I've only gotten a few signed negs. I love when people sign them. It makes me happier but its funny stuff when they dont sign them. Pretty Pathetic. They are probably the same people who are scared of thier own shaddow. Silly fans. When I get negging ability I'm going to neg random people and be sure to sign.

I have that problem with this site. I can't type in the address in, and get here.
