Find me on Reddit as "BoldCityDigital"

 

You can also find me on WE ARE JAGUARS on Facebook.
 

Found you. 

I'm Jagsfreak
Wow...

 

This is what I come back to after a couple months of the site being down? 

 

What an absolutely poor decision and travesty for us passionate Jaguars fans. This forum was the only place where we could formulate and express our feelings, thoughts, comments, and debates to fellow fans regardless of where we stood. 

 

I have been here for many, many years (far before my joined date on this account) and I can say without any doubt that this is a big blow to us fans… 

 

There is no way in hell that 140 characters or certain social media platforms could provide what this message board has for all of us - i.e. developing friendships with fellow Jags fans, venue for expressing thoughtful debate (not just "BORTLES SUCKS", "Fire ___", etc ,etc…) and more.

 

This long run was a blast to be a part of with all of you guys and gals. Thank you for bringing whats makes you unique to this message board (and yes, even TMD and TTR lol). It's too bad that this MB won't be available to us hopefully when our beloved Jags are on the rise again.

 

Dang man. Dang.

You hit the nail on the head, (as so many have)

You know... you never see him posting on the board... and now it's going away. You just might be onto to something here.

Quote:This isn't a money move.  It's a decision tied to the social media strategy the team has been developing for the past few years.  They don't see this forum as being necessary with so many other avenues already in place.  They're not averse to criticism.  They've grown to expect it because it existed even when things were going well.
 

I can see that being the case.  Social media is a cess pool that makes this forum look like a safe place.  Between bias machine learning and algorithms, I hate the whole feed/post wall concept.  At least in a forum you can search my posts out and call me out more rapidly.  In the swamp of facebook/twitter, you can do the same but all your doing is lining their pockets.

 

I want to support the team not the Silicon Valley crowd.

His column is a  filter and I no longer find it informative.  It was never entertaining.
I heard somewhere that when Khan closes a door, he opens a window.


Where will my comments go when they die?

To deaf ears and blind eyes.
The only thing you can do is let your voice be heard and not just on this message board.

This is stupid. But not the first time the Jags organization have done something stupid. It is what it is. 

I'll go ahead and echo everyone else's frustration with this news.  This is a place I've checked almost on a daily basis, as it usually gets Jags news faster than any other source (aside from Twitter).  Hope to see some of the same people around on another site/method, whichever becomes the main meeting place.  

Quote:As far as facilitating good and substantive football discussion, Facebook and twitter are poor substitutes for this forum.
 

LOL .... the only thing of similarity is that they both have "Like" icons

In the end it will be known that his curse doomed us. We're fools for not listeng to you lol
from time to time you can also find me on the forums of www.Hot_Siberean_Chicks.com
I echo with what alot of people are saying. This is absolute garbage, I kinda feel like one of best friends is in hospice dying, and I know the exact date they will die. I've been on this board for over a decade, since before my join date. I never posted that often that's why my count is low, but I came here every day. We where a community, and I grew to like or know what to expect from the regulars. This is a sad day. Is there no way to keep it up after, like could the admins not keep it going?
This is a terrible decision. I promise if I see Alfie/rainy day make a stupid joke about this, Im gonna embarrass their @$$e$ in front of their own lackeys.

Thanks ..... I just revised mine to (904) ###-####

 

I already have $750,000 coming in from my Nigerian inheritances.  Apparently, the cash is tied up in escrow accounts awaiting for me to contribute another $5,000 for their attorney fees.

That's AWESOME!

I wish I could get that lucky some day...

Lol ... you honestly don't need to take any action to embarrass Alfie.  He does a pretty good job on his own.

Exactly, I used to ignore those emails thinking it was a scam.  Then I sent $500 then $1,000 and then $2,500.   Now, I'm finally getting really good updates from them as they continue in their efforts to get the inheritance released.
