CFL - worst Boards?

Re: CFL - worst Boards?

CFLzone isn't about banning anyone. In fact, I don't even think they edit.

haha "Turd is banned from there right now ...... again!

but he's not the problem it's all the mods fault ..... right Ritch

My gift to Ritch

Re: CFL - worst Boards?

I'm not one to "diss" other sites....and it certainly is not what THIS board is about. Since it is at the present just one's own opinion thus far let me counter (and hopefully steer this thread from site bashing to another direction) and offer my BEST boards from my opinion:

1. esksfans - no place like it, best site bar none.
2. 13thman - if you want CFL (non-team specific) than this is the place to go.
3. lionbackers - a good bunch of mis-guided souls.
4. ourbombers - hate the layout, but a pretty good group of guys there.
5. gostampsgo - this site has come along way in the last year, Calf has a good thing going....almost makes up for them harbouring guys like Newton & Brownee.
6. riderfans - say what you will about this site, but for many of it's negatives it is still sometimes a great place for discussion (just so long as the discussion does not relate to the Riders, a salary cap, or the Eskimos)
7. cflzone - Reiders site looks pretty good, but with iso & Newton as mods you'd have to pay me to sign up there....
8. Ti-Cats, argofans, & goalsgo - although I am a member at those sites...I rarely post there, so it is unfair to comment.
9. esks.com - the site itself is very good (could still be better), but the message board is garbage. The level of discussion and moderation here is far superior.
10. cfl.ca & sportsnet - pure infantile junk, this is where to go for posting nothing but smack and empty headed bs....

nice roundup!
1 - agreed (but I would, wouldn't I? )
2 - and has gotten noticeably better since earlier 'issues'
3, 4, 5, 6 - I'll take your word for that as I rarely go there
7 - Jury's still out here... but I'll agree with your latter comments on this one!
8 - I go to ticats.ca and it's surprisingly good! tame and a bit watery, but good! I stopped going to argosfans.com but I'll be back to taunt them when Maas picks 'em apart. Then we'll see how the do. Know nothing about goalsgo.
9 - very thin
10 - totally agree!

Re: CFL - worst Boards?

I used to go to 13thman quite regularily, I stoped because certain teams fans made it thier life's work to make every post an instant pissing match. It got old real fast. I Lurk there from time to time but am still not impressed too many people let personal pride interfere with facts and common sense.

Re: CFL - worst Boards?

Re: CFL - worst Boards?

the good ones IMO.....

esksfans.com, lionbackers.com, cfl.ca ( just kidding, but seriously)

riderfans.com...a few idiots, but I like it when it comes to talking about the NFL, doesn't get so personal, a few good posters there among the weeds.

cflzone.com...not a big fan of it, but I go there occasionally, don't paticularily like that it's only CFL, but hey, thats the site.

13thman.com...that's where I got my start, I left and never looked back, never gone back on that site, don't intend to with the stuff I'm hearing.

GSG.com, it's alright, if you look past their bad taste is football teams that is.

can't commment on the rest, don't really go there much...

What else would you like to see there?

bad experiences with them I take it?

Yeah, pretty much.. everyone has been great so far with the exception of Ritch. With him being a CFL pal of mine, you think he would be able to follow the forum rules, but apparently not....

Re: CFL - worst Boards?

typically an other sports section. But seeing the name as it is, I'd respect if you guys would wish to keep it what it is.

Re: CFL - worst Boards?

actually, I don't really have any problems with CFLZone...it's alright, and I'm sure it'll get better.

Ah..and will you come back when we beat Maas like we have in the past when he was on a better team than he's on now? Good posters like yourself are always welcome!

I'm with you on this one. Everytime I go over there, there seems to be an abundance of "violent threads" . I spend the vast majority of my time on esksfans, and post a bit at lionbackers as well.

Bear in mind it's only about 3 months or less old. It will find it's niche in the CFL fan realm, some will like it...some won't, some will make it their 2nd or 3rd choice in the rotation. You can't please everyone. I've seen a few boards come and go over the years and this is one of the better ones.

Re: CFL - worst Boards?

Do any eskimo fans even post at 13th man anymore?

Well there is the tavern for off topic discussion (sports included) and a National Hockey League Discussion forum as well.
