While cruising around cyberspace, I blundered into some other Packer Forums.

Banning posters for a year for criticizing players?

How do some of these places stay afloat?

If you put a space in your URL, it blanks your whole message.

Aside from the periodic bickering this is an awesome site. I'm constantly reminded of that every time I read a JSO article and then look at the posts at the bottom.

If we're not bickering, what's the point of a forum???

Exchange ideas, then argue like hell about them :D

How do some of these places stay afloat?I once poasted there, but they have so many sub boards, you don't know what to post where. As for the poster who got banned 365 dyas, he made derogartory remarks including sexual preference of a Packers employee. Looks like Tank got banned at another site.

Packerchatters is a good board. A lot of those folks are knowledgeable and try not to bicker too much. The language is PG-13. Packersnews.net is another forum I read daily too. Packerforum.com is okay too but it doesn't have a lot of traffic. The GB Press-Gazette blog is the worst! :P

Having a Mexican running a sports site on a team that is in one of the whitest areas of this country is what makes this site great!

Seriously though, based off that thread everyone on this forum except Patler, Oregon and Pugger would be locked out.

I can't imagine what an ignore button would be good for.

Back in the ancient days of usenet, alt.sports.football.pro.gb-packers had some real psychos who made hundreds of posts a day. The ignore button there was golden.

I understand there may be posters here that you don't like, but I don't see anybody spamming the forum. I should think an eyeball-driven ignore ought to work wonderfully. IF accidentally reading a few lines of some distateful person puts your stomach in knots, the answer is therapy, not an ignore button.

Were you on there too?

That was a great forum for a good bit of time.

The spam wars destroyed that and Alt.recsports.Scuba, also.

I remember when the Spammers first hit, I couldn't figure out why they were doing it & I still don't know.

There are some goofs on here from time to time, but just a shake of the head gets you past 'em.

A true destroyer can be banned and that has to happen. Some people just get off on destruction.

If you're using the ignore button to stop viewing posts by someone you're having a tiff with, doesn't that just mean you can't see what that person's saying about you? That could get kind of humorous.

Guess I should have qualified it more as bitching. The whole Favre drama got old after Day one with those blindly in Favre's camp and those blindly in TT's camp.

The vast majority of discussion (and humor) in here is awesome and things are definitely far better as of late but for a while this board was tending to one big bowl of suck like the old JSO.
