If we have an aesthetically pleasing forum, why is it dominated by less than a handful of repetitive individuals with their nauseated same rhetoric over and over and over again?

PH was never meant to be a place like that. I can't come here to read Packers news and opinions without seeing the same 3 or 4 people shoving their opinion down my throat over and over again. It was meant to be a place where we get lots of various opinions ... freely.


As for this YAF software, maybe I'll grab the latest version, hack it up into what I want and strip out the rest. Might take less time than building one from scratch. I read that flarum guy quit his job and it took 8 months to get that software going. Color me intimidated! haha

No board is hopping this time of the year.

What is it like during the season when I'm not here? Vastly different?

I think there should be different sub forums. I believe I suggested that before.

There are Buck type posters who like the homer stuff and anything else is an affront to them.

If you had a critics forum that would keep people like me out of the main forum away from those who don't want critical evaluation of their favorite football team. I truly believe that would solve most of the issues here.

Heck. You could have a Ted only forum and a MM only forum. The Ted talk would then shift to a sub forum.

I just don't get it. I just don't understand why some feel they have to go on an on an on about the same thing and then ignorantly label people "homer" when they try to be positive about things. I mean, God forbid a FAN think POSITIVE about their team. What a crime, a low down dirty crime!

It's just discouraging and if I'm not wanting to post (keep in mind, I am the only one who pays to be at PH) because whatever I say will get muddied up and drowned out with "regime hate" ... what about all the lurkers who don't register?

Read the top five topics and the posts. If you weren't already registered, would you? Where in there is an opening for someone elses input when you know your'e going to get slaughtered for being a FAN of the Packers? You're either a homer or looking through green and gold glasses. For fucks sake, this is a fan website for GREEN BAY PACKERS!! Yet, being a supportive fan gets you ridiculed and just repetitive post after post until you give up because you just don't care to argue with some folks who are no better than a brick wall when it comes to conversing with.

I had planned on writing a piece every week or two when time permits. I even bought NFL Gamepass to review film to do it. Seeing those few people constantly just barrage posts with their same adage over and over again? It's just not worth my time because I've seen all the hate. I'm done with it.

I like it that we now get 20 posts on a page instead of 10. [pinkele]

It took me a couple of days to notice it.🤦

Why not make a Packers critical sub forum? I'd stay away from the homer main forum if we had one. Or... You could just ban non homers like most sites do. Homers and non homers are never going to get along.

TT, MM and AR are going to be the 3 most talked about and scrutinized members of the franchise. Will never change.

If me telling the truth gets me banned again then that's just how it is. You've called me a DOUCHE on more than one occasion and used the f word and the a word toward me in shout just recently that was later wiped clean.

People know this is your site and if they see you do it they believe it's tolerated here. Buck and Barfarn have just recently followed your example.

It's ironic to me that I get heat for my opinions on the Packers while not a word is said when I'm called a racist, an a hole and told FU twice in the same post.

Myself included, I say some idiotic stupid things. I'll say it too. That doesn't mean I'm saying I am an idiot or stupid, just means something I said, or something I did was idiotic and/or stupid.

e.g. saying Aaron Rodgers is Jay Cutler is one idiotic moronic ignorant stupid ass thought.

Now, the person who said it, I'm not saying THEY are those things, just merely the thought that Cutler and Rodgers are the same ilk is those words.


I've said it probably 49 times now. I like your outside the box thinking. What I don't like is you drowning out everyone else so only your thinking is front page. Instead of leading a horse to water, you dump gallons of water on the horse and when the horse doesn't drink, you call them homers.

I don't see a reason for you to be suspended or banned.

Zero it was not just uffda. Apparently I misunderstood some of your "douche" comments too. It just shows that it is easy for people to not communicate effectively on any message board. I know I have had to explain my thoughts on more than one occasion because I was not making myself clear.
