Since BBMB Shut Down - Do you Go To buffalobills.com?

Recommended Posts

Maybe once or twice to check news but not really.     That board was going downhill fast, but there should have been some type of warning.    I didn't stop going to the site out of protest, more then I never really looked at anything there besides the BBMB in the first place.  

 

I do not post here nearly as much as I did there, but this board is higher quality overall and I am glad to have found it.

Curious, did bbmb have a poster with the screen name of neeraj or something similar? 

 

That was the Democrat and Chronicle 

forums.  If I'm not mistaken that person posts here frequently 

 

WEO was also a regular there.  

 

That also reminds me of the asshat Miami fan JackRabbit 

 

 

Funny thing is at that time at the D&C, we thought this place was like the BBMB.  Bunch a whiners.   

 

How times change and yet it seems it never does.

As someone who was on the bbmb for a long time, this board is 100x's better. I only go to the bills app to look at the schedule or watch press conferences if I feel inclined 

yeah i'm not going any farther than this. i joined bbmb in 2004 and  i used to go to the bills site to log on so it was peripheral  info from the team site. i went there just to click on message board....and quite frankly found that board very entertaining. the only thing better here is the by product of updated technology and such.

 

it seems as though a majority here are from there...AND YOUZ KNOW WHO YOUZ ARE....and the rest of us do too.  anywho, there wasn't much copy and paste in those days, not to mention the advance of social media platforms.  that being said, i enjoyed bbmb and now i enjoy this. no blood, no foul......

 

but no, i very rarely go on the team site only for roster, schedule and articles that 26 posts.

And that was a HUGE benefit 

 

you could link a story but you were not allowed to post the entire story.  

 

 

 

Oh also on the D&C forums was my Daily Babe Thread 

 

I cant recall if it was 1000 + pages or 4000 + pages.

not quite sure what you're getting at here but when 26 posts links to articles (and we've had our differences),  i like it because i can hit the link and read without visiting multiple sites and i really enjoy the reading material without having to leave this board to do so. i'm still not on twitter as i can't yet see myself as a twit....but to each his/her own.

 

i have to set limits on how far on the grid i am. besides the d&c is dead.  who reads or gets the paper anymore?

On accident on occasion.  Habits are hard to break.

I remember it crashing after the TO signing.

this is a bit off the trail here but, there used to be a guy named skeletor on bbmb that posted a pic of jauron on halloween in a coffin and to this day when i think of it i get a chuckle.

wish i would have saved that. funny af.

What’s the term for posting someone else’s story...... infringement?

 

 

There are rules and regulations that need to be adhered to

i believe the term is internet....

 

edit: i don't care, if i see an interesting subject/link, it saves me time and most of the time it's a good read....so

A thread should be started about the most hated posters on BBMB.  By far, mine was some jack wagon with 8 million posts named Schpeily or some spelling like that.  Some of those guys probably committed suicide the day that board got shut down.

Ah man, I can’t remember the guys username, he ended up getting permabanned for flying off the handle on people. One time he got all heated after we went back and forth over some Bills bologna and threatened to come “find me” at the stadium. So I posted my seat # and said “stop by any time, I’m there every homegame. Bring beer.”

 

He never showed :(

The content was never good (boring and biased) nor up-to-date.  Haven't been on that sight more than a handful of times since BBMB closed shop.  I like the content here although I can't read the Buffalo News stuff - not a subscriber.

Didn't go a lot before; even less now.
