MMB:
This discord has had 7-8 more interesting conversation than the board in the last 24 hours
Ween, dark side and newpers cooking channel
Dark sides home repair tips
Peoria Matt’s - life and times of a lone usps driver
Harvard dan - don’t doc me bro
Caller bob hoping mein kampf messages don’t pop up during his presentation
Spiral stairs joining with "cum"
Newper's solution to the Hawk thread
Many heaps praised on longtime board members that aren't here
Bears talk

Superbowl talk

This is your chance to try it out on Sunday, please join us and see what its all about. If you don't like it, no problem all I ask is join us if you have a phone or mobile handy. We have many people reporting in from the field. Will Newper burn his house down with his first deep fry? Will darko have to repair an attic leaking heat instead of watching the big game? Come and find out!

Why not use the board?

This isn't much different than what everyone got mad at Peeps, KS, and OKC for doing.

Is talking shit about Spany allowed ? Or is that only the secret Facebook chat ?

Apparently there's not enough racist talk allowed on the board.

We just got rid of Darko, why would I migrate to where he went?

For the record, is there any doubt bigfan would have immediately deleted this thread and sought retribution against the guy who posted it? As everyone can see, that is not happening here.

Fair point. This wouldn’t have been tolerated.

I stand with CFMB. No Diskkkord for me.

For me, I just prefer the message board format to a chat format. But I'm an old guy.

I think bigfan's mistake was that he didn't understand that he couldn't control where people go on the Internet. You just have to supply a forum where people want to participate.

I do think it's somewhat disingenuous that most of the complaints about CFMB have been about "offensive" content, i.e. racism, bigotry, yet people are so eager to go where they can palaver with the worst offenders.

I don’t know anything about discord but it made me wonder about this board. It seems users desire chat and maybe some more options. I was a member of othe boards before this and it seems their platforms while being the same as ours did have chat rooms and stuff. Other than that they were identical. How much more money can it be or trouble to have a newer platform?

Not only wouldn’t people go to Facebook or discord but maybe there would be fewer long thread fights because the steam gets released in chats.

Have you ever used Discord? It's like asking why someone wouldn't just use a typewriter instead of an computer to write a letter.

Chats for special events instead of game threads that are just lots of posts that go "oh" "OHHHHH" "oh nooooooo" yeah!!!!!!" are a good idea, but they shouldn't run parallel to the entire message board. So I'm guessing this chat is mainly a way for ToxicMasculinity to be even more mask-off than he is here?

Yes, but do you buy board member drinks?

This thread is no different then people posting about FB chat. He isn't saying come to another board. He is inviting us to another platform. What Peeps and KS did is different.

Discord is like a group text chain. This place is like a reply all e-mail chain. Discord is good when things are happening like a game because everything is in one spot and instantaneous. This is better if your want topics and like to browse/add longer thoughts.

He was saying it was used all week instead of the board with specific examples.

I've been on the Discord a few times and there was no racism talk so it was fine.

I do like a little structure which is why I prefer the board format. Discord is like a chatroom where there can be 7 conversations going on simultaneously. Nothing wrong with it, and probably good for quick chat.

You say there's a heaven for those who will stay
Some say it's better but I say it ain't
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints
The sinners are much more fun

I used Netflix to watch movies instead of checking the bitching threads here. Should we delete the Netflix thread?

What what what? You ran off the board's first and only Hall of Fame poster? Why the fuck would you do that when the board needs its top selling points like Dar to keep the steady influx of big fishes like len kasper and Danny parko coming? Surely they're not gonna carry on with msgboards bereft of HOF posters!

I’ve seen nothing untoward posted there while I’ve been on. It’s great for in game commentary or if you want to chat with a certain poster without mucking up the message board.
