An ignominious end to a great community

Recommended Posts

The final break-up is almost here. Do nMWC fans want to try and rebuild this site, or someone start another site? I’m thinking about doing one on the free proboards  site…
As soon as the basketball season is over, the divorce will be final, I won’t be posting much if at all, on the other site. It’s pretty much all nPac posters there anyway.

I'm into being here, honestly. But, the lack of traffic is sad.

How can we get the word out for just MWC fans to come back here. Don’t want to try to just say that on the other board cause I’d just get banned, but yeah. Jeff needs to a point someone that wants to be here as administrator so they can help with the place.

I wish I could be optimistic about reviving this place.  Message boards are a pretty hard sell to Millennials and Gen Zer's.  Mostly just Boomers and Gen Xer's left on the two boards I haunt.  This board was slowly dying even before Jeff officially starved it of all remaining life.  It's pretty much impossible to get a board going while the owner is MIA.

The only boards thriving now are individual team boards. 

I started my foreverlobos.com site. I was thinking of starting a nMWC site too. You guys think there be some interest in a free forum site on proboards?

The WCS Board has a cancer growing there that will eventually kill it. Instead of sports talk between conference rivals it has become a better than thou pissing contest. Every discussion started eventually becomes about how the PAC schools are better in every way and the MWC schools are just the poor red headed step children. Many people there don’t even bother to post because of the direction every thread eventually heads. It’s not the old ribbing your opposition conference mates, it’s just trying to massage  your ego in an insulting way.

Unfortunately this place is beyond being saved.

I need to join your site but I’m just a casual New Mexico fan. Great year for the lobos.

I sent you a link, robe. And as an honorary New Mexican, you’ll be welcomed into “la familia Lobos”!

Yes, it's 100% one-sided there. No ranting about the nPAC schools being traitors, and wishing they all fail. No, that hasn't happened at all. 

Talk about holier than thou....
