Stupid. Stupid Stupid Decision

(This post was last modified: 05-22-2017, 01:02 PM by Up North Jag.)

Quote:Agreed, but the powers that be don't see it that way, and they're the ones making the decision. Honestly, this is a trend that we've seen with a lot of teams around the league where they no longer host their own message boards, and we kind of expected this to come to Jaguars.com eventually. That day has arrived.

I hate that day. Fred Will Always Be A Jag Sad

10 days before the board dies and I can finally log in.


These last few days of posting are going to be glorious.

Hmmmm... So, If I were to go off on a tirade on May 31st and tell a certain self-righteous Mod what I really think of him, it'd be ok, right? I mean.... What's he gonna do, ban me?

Somebody brought up creating a discord channel for Jags stuff and that's really not a bad idea.

MODS: 

Is there a rule that I'm not aware of where you can't link other sites? 

I've just noticed that multiple posts I've made with links to the Jaguars subreddit and Discord have had the links removed from them.

I have so many questions now that I'm a free man again.


Will there be snacks and a movie on the last day? I hope there's no quizzes or homework.


Have we started making funeral arrangements for the board yet? The day is coming.


Can we bring back TMD for the last week? Just for kicks.

It can't be because of criticism.

 

First off, when you have the record the Jaguars have had over the past 10 years, you are going to get criticism even from your most loyal fans.  NFL.com and NFL network constantly criticizes the team, but the team doesn't steer people from those sites.

 

Furthermore, it's not as if shifting to facebook or some other social media site is going to stop the critiques of the team if the team is objectively performing poorly.
 

I disagree.  I have a couple of websites hosted on a server that cost a small amount of money, (especially when talking the amount of money the Jaguars put into marketing).  Running a database as well as message board software isn't all that time-consuming and doesn't cost a whole lot.

Exactly.  What they are kind of "short-sighted" on though is the fact that this board is a resource for not only local and out of town/state fans, but also the other "home-team" fans across the pond.

Hmmmmm? Do I sniff "emotional distress" implications here? I better call Morgan and Morgans fat [BLEEP].

Looking to troll? Don't bother, we supply our own.

He retired a few years back, and he was really the only one at the time who was fighting inside the organization to keep the board.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I'm assuming that because some of the content on your subreddit is inappropriate for this site, the links have been removed.  They were there earlier.
