I damn near pissed myself when I read that as well, Timbo :lol:

I think until today, the last time I went to that site was when this place went down for a brief moment there about 2 months ago or so. Other than that, I've never been back there. But yeah, there is a lot of shit being slung around over there for sure. Admittingly, there can be some nasty crap slung around here, bad blood can, just as it has in the past, develop pretty quickly but for the most part, meh... whatever.

Lets just not mention the land that time forgot ever again :lol:


in all fairness, autism is NOT based on IQ. many autistic people are smarter then you and i. as a person with a very mild case of aspergers, i find this slightly offensive, but i certainly see its humourous merits as well.

(when i say mild, i mean, i show no symptoms outside of having trouble looking people in the eyes, and im socially awkward at times)

Socially awkward? Aren't you just awkward?

Wait, there is an old Sabres forum?

im awkward yes, and thats an attribute of it. i get nervous, so i just try to make people laugh, even when it puts myself down.

its nothing serious, no one can tell anything, they just think im a little goofy at times.

it comes with its benefits though. i have an eidetic memory, which im not sure if the two are connected. i assume so.

:lol: Oh dear.

That's my first look at the site since this place was created, basically. Place is dead.

I don't think that's a former member of this message board, knowing the people who have left. Perhaps it's someone who has been poorly spoken of here, who was a regular contributing member of the old boards and would have joined here had s/he not visited here to see certain things said. There are a few people that have been sort of bashed here, or that were at the beginning.

I try to avoid the old forum, if for no other reason than to protect my eyes... what a terrible design.

It helps that seemingly no one posts there in the first place, no reason to return really.

I've been there in the last few days and that PowerSupply uses personal attacks which is or was against the CoC. I'm not sure what the mod could do about it though, since a ban can only be handed down buy the webmaster and he never logs on. I think just to piss off PowerSupply we should post there. :lol:

just sent this to the webmaster, not that it will help.

What is going on with the Message Boards? Members are running a muck posting off topic threads in the wrong area, launching personal attacks, leaving the boards for the fact they are hideous and not user friendly. Can a change be made? Sabre fans should not be alienated buy the team's Message Board to the point that they have to go elsewhere to talk about the Sabres.

DO SOMETHING!

Yeah, that was one of our biggest complaints about the new system. Because of the unified login nonsense, mods couldn't really do anything to someone like Power Supply other than edit his posts. Scott said there was nothing he could do about it, except for the fact that some other teams mods complained, and KickApps come up with a solution for per-website actions.

I get the feeling that the guy really doesn't care what happens to the boards, and only kept them up because he was mandated to.

Well he's either a former member or he just lingers around these boards. Check out his last post in this thread.

It's just a matter of annoying the right person to get things to change.

I still feel sad when I go over there and see how awful it is... We lost a lot of good members during the transition.

Okaaay, that longer post has me convinced that's Hal. The writing style is the same, and the reference to Justin Timberlake and adolescent girls cemented it hahaha, along with the complaint that being negative about the team is not allowed (um...).

Yeeaaah, OK, going through the rest of that thread and reading his posts, I 100% believe that that's Hal.
