You do realize that pretty much all the basketball boards are going down the shtter, right? I'm sure the admins and mods have realized this too, but there's nothing we can do about it. There's just too many ballboys and annoying fans. We talk about basketball in the OTB, and we don't have to face annoying arguments about nothing that you can see in pretty much every thread on the general board.


Incorrect. The Bucks forum continues to be awesome 8-)

I'm offended by your remark.

We do post on basketball related boards but the quality of conversation is much lower there.


Yeah, because the quality of the conversations on the OTB is so much better. Talking about fapping and chloroform, posting random pictures, insulting each other and posting random crap that are 1-5 words long in the RTT threads to post pad. The OTB has gone down the toilet in the past several months which is why I rarely visit that board anymore and have been using the Media Lounge for my off topic discussions. It's also probably the reason why that board hasn't attracted any new posters and it's always the same handful of posters that roam that board. Now it's just littered with RTTs and Survivor Challenges. Even when someone does post a serious topic, no one replies seriously.

That's some great discussion here: viewtopic.php?f=42&t=1004497

Wait, you think the quality of conversation in those RTT threads is high? Seems like its all farts and giggles. That aint no high quality.


as opposed to the sharts and dry-heaves that fill the raptors board?

did you also notice that many of the posters on there are actually forming freindships? i've forged friendships with many of hte posters on there, and have them on facebook. i wouldnt say that just because you dont fit in, doesnt mean that it demerits the board. you're just a bit of a tool imo

Ha, there you are wrong. I am a new poster there. And do you honestly think we care about the post count over there? I can't think of a single good reason to "post pad". I mean as awesome as having a different word under my name is, it just seems rather pointless.

I want to point out that nearly everyone here has over twice as many posts per day than I do. How can I be a post padder Salami, when your post count is more than 2.5 times mine?

Not everyone agrees with the content on the OTB board because people dont understand the culture. Each board has its personalites but there isn't a better board per se.

Please don't compare the OTB to the Raptors board. If you don't like it over there then don't visit.

Sometimes Raptors mods will even go to the OTB to get away from it all.

No I said it had its own culture like most large message boards.

I find it laughable that someone can say that the Raptors board sucks or that the OTB is the best board on realgm. Both forums have good posters.

Hahaha. Great post
