This place gets more like OUInsider every day

[Rhino]

And that isn't a good thing.

[Boarder]

No way, they don't have the cool thread preview rollover function.

[Mjcpr]

Plus, they have a lot more action over there.

[Sooner_Bob]

How so? I don't visit Insider . . .

[King Crimson]

"Coach Sampson's style is boring. He can't recruit either."

there, that's all you need to know to post at OUInsider. ;)

[mrowl]

And that isn't a good thing.

don't picture captions rock?!?!? :rolleyes:

[Rhino]

Plus, they have a lot more action over there. More traffic maybe. But the same amount of post-padding, mind-numbing action.

It all started when we had the board hosted on Insiders' servers. And now the Insiders dorks have become regulars.

[Rhino]

All we need now is ZeppelinNick84 to come over, make broad generalizations and post this pic in his signature:

This in a nutshell is why I'm not paying much attention to the football forum.

[Boarder]

Our lack of signature pictures is what keeps this forum head and shoulders above the rest.

[Veritas]

So that's where those gooby noobs are coming from.

[Rhino]

This in a nutshell is why I'm not paying much attention to the football forum. I'm not just talking about the football forum.

[OU4LIFE]

so you're saying we need signature pictures?

whew, i was worried i was the problem......i'm a dork of another source

[Boarder]

Sorry, Rhino, I'm voting against the signature pictures. I just can't support that.

[Beef]

I'm sorry. I'll bane myself.

[Rhino]

That would be the final step into the proverbial grave. However, unlike eZboard, you can ignore signatures here.

Do it and prepare to neg-reputationized into Bolivian.

[Sooner_Bob]

Names . . . we need names. :D

[Scott D]

I'm not talking about the football forum.

I know that...but it's a nice little microcosm unto itself worth of the study of the de-evolution of the message board.

Unfortunately, yes. If I had a penny every time he proved his ignorance, I could buy this board and theirs.

[OUinFLA]

......i'm a dork of another source

Cant be me either, Im too old. I had already voted in 3 Presidential elections before I heard the term "dork"...............well, then again, I might not have been paying attention.
Anyway, I'm too old to be a dork. But I could be a "codger"

[OUthunder]

probably several of them

Don't you just love it when you're prepared to respond to a statement made early in the thread but, as you scroll and read on through said thread, you see that it has become hijacked to a degree that it becomes useless to post your reply at that point? I think I'll go over to Insider for a few minutes and see if this is already happening on any of their threads over there. :)

You've just described almost every thread in the SO.

[BlondeSoonerGirl]

So, what's bad about Insider? I'm serious here - I don't go there so I don't know.

And I wanna hate for the right reason, you know?

They allow pics of scantily clad womens I'm pretty sure.

Is that a bad thing or a good thing?

[Fugue]

I'm ASSuming that if she is hitting you, there just might be a little hate involved.

ok, that's lame, sorry.

Yeah, I don't know why either.

BAWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

i'm am SO NOT curious about speaking another language

[My Opinion Matters]

It's probably my fault.

[GottaHavePride]

Didn't NickZeppelin post over here a while back?

[Boarder]

Rhino may be right. There's a Real World Austin thread on both pages.

[KC//CRIMSON]

It's like the bizzaro Jerry episode.

[Rhino]

So, what's bad about Insider? I'm serious here - I don't go there so I don't know.

And I wanna hate for the right reason, you know? 1) posters make irrational statements about whatever sport or athlete being talked about (think of listening to your grandma try to talk intelligently about sports)
2) a handful of posters post in every thread, even if it's just to say "oh that's cool" or "yeah".
3) posters fight with posters about how they treat other posters
4) numerous threads have to be locked every day because posters can't control themselves from flipping out on someone or calling someone a name
5) posters junk up the board because they don't know what to do with themselves.
6) posters have ridiculously huge signatures.
7) eZboard sucks.

[OklahomaTuba]

yeah.

6) posters have ridiculously huge signatures.

I'm staying here.

For real though, I stopped going over there about a year ago because it just seemed so lame. And those HUGE-*** sigs are obnoxious.

I wouldn't say 'whipped'.

I'd say 'stirred rapidly into a foamy froth'.

I ran into one of SF's own over on OUInsider. He knows what I'm talking about. :D

[DCSooner]

soonerbowie, if you are lurking, you need to chime in. :D

[Sooner_Bob]

So I guess it's a good thing that Insiders is blocked from work? :D

[silverwheels]

And over here we don't have to deal with Mountaineers or Manhatter or anything.

mrbsg? The man needs his own identity. Let him fly.

You leave him under his rock.

He's juuuuust fine...

[Mjcpr]

I think it'd be cute if he posted here. C'mon dude, post up like ya got a pair.

I am a lurker on both boards. Both have issues but this one is far better, IMO.

I have had fun lately guessing who the OC clique will choose as their next victim. They snipe & attack long enough that the poster responds in kind & then gets banned. It's become the forum summer sport while they wait on football.

6) posters have ridiculously huge signatures. It's called progress, people...and I'm starting the revolution.


Please - cut down your 'Signature Photos' (or lose them) (http://mb12.scout.com/fouinsiderfrm14.showMessage?topicID=36132.topic)

Guys we are trying to get ready for July 1, (Friday) when the board traffic begins to come alive. We need everyone to eliminate, or reduce their 'custom signature photos' to approximately 150 x 150; or 220 x 100, etc pixels.

Why?

Large photos slow the board down - for everyone, but particularly those that do not have high speed connections. We do allow game shots, etc. to be used in posts from time to time, but these signature photos really serve no useful purpose.

The alternative is to just turn off the 'allow signature photos' ooption on our master control panel. We do not want to do that, as we enjoy some of them just as you do. But IF we have to, you can thank the people that refused to reduce their signature photo size.

Thanks for your cooperation & understanding.

sure they do: check the "good information" you can get on the incredible personal attacks in the White-Hybl threads, Thompson-Bomar, or "bench Q".

And it's funny how it's still the same 5 years later. It's a bunch of dudes who really don't know **** about football but by God, they're gonna get their uninformed & misguided points communicated, dammit. There are some good posters but they're drowned out by the sheer numbers of dumases.
