Description: What Happened
Mad Dog - October 13, 2005 03:35 AM (GMT)
I remember lurking there and being too intimidated to post because it was the elite wrestling board on the net. I enjoyed stopping in a couple times a month and checking out what they had to say. I noticed this summer that the quality took a huge nosedive over there. It seems like most of the quality people are gone and it's just the usual generic smarks that hate everything.
Any clue when this happened?

Did some of us go over there?
SamoaRowe - October 13, 2005 03:45 AM (GMT)
They kept closing out my accounts because months would go by without me posting. Now it sounds like someplace I'd probably post more, since I wouldn't feel like one of the stupider posters :D
Scrooge McSuck - October 13, 2005 09:44 AM (GMT)
I guess having that list of horribly unfunny rumours was DVD's fingerpoke of doom. :D
prof_plague - October 13, 2005 05:21 PM (GMT)
I never actually posted there, I've just read the random threads.
dynamite kido - October 13, 2005 05:30 PM (GMT)
Meh, maybe it's me..............but I don't think it's too bad there...........then again I don't go there THAT often.

It's gotten much worse since the restart.
Mad Dog - October 13, 2005 06:55 PM (GMT)
I noticed a huge drop after the restart. Spelling and grammer have even taken a huge hit there as well. Not as bad as TSM or 411 but getting there.
whitemilesdavis - October 13, 2005 07:23 PM (GMT)
The influx of useless threads is getting out of hand.

I signed up during the whole craze with the Urban Legends thread, posted a few times, then realized it wasn't as much fun having nothing to say when the people who are insulting you mean it...

Real F'n Show - October 13, 2005 08:56 PM (GMT)
I post there.
It was alright until those fucking Dutch hacked the place. Now it's just like TSM, except not as many dumb fucks.

The Urban Legends thread is the main reason why I read the posts there.

Most smarks suck. I think some smarks forget that the point of being a smark is to be a mark.

What happened exactly?
Mad Dog - October 13, 2005 09:44 PM (GMT)
Yeah, the last few months have really turned me on smarks. The anti-smarks are just as high on the jackass list though.
But 90% of the net smarks give all of us a bad name. They really are never happy with anything as opposed to those of us that have a list of things we want to see change. A lot of the negativity towards TNA has opened my eyes to that. Here was a company giving smarks almost everything they could ask for over the summer and they still bashed the shit out of it.
SamoaRowe - October 13, 2005 09:54 PM (GMT)
This is why I like DWB because I think most of us here have valid opinions and back them up. I trash WWE sometimes, but I like to think I do so when they really deserve it. I still think WWE has some entertainment value, so I haven't given up on it yet. I still think 2002 was the absolute worst time for them quality-wise, and I like to think that if I stuck through that time, I'll be able to stick through forever.
And I hardly have anything negative to say about TNA right now. I wish they'd used The Naturals and Samoa Joe on Spike TV by now, but I won't get worried (unless I don't see them by the fourth show).

2-3 posters there who were Dutch thought it would be funny to hack the place, to the pint where the whole board needed to be re-done. And now a lot of "y2j80567" type posters are signing up, if you know what I mean...

Gee, that's hil-arious! How come no one else found it funny :blink:
New DWB rule: No Dutch. :P

What he means is the l33t speakers are taking over.

What is the point of l33t? Some people seem to think they are pretty cool for using it.
Mad Dog - October 13, 2005 10:19 PM (GMT)
l33t is for retards and those too lazy to spell correctly.
Scrooge McSuck - October 13, 2005 10:31 PM (GMT)
I hate most smarks because they tend to think a match needs to be "OMG!**************3/4!" to be an entertaining one. I know I'm a smark a bit, but I also enjoy most wrestlers who aren't what I call "Smark Darlings."
For example: Hardcore Holly, Orlando Jordan, Viscera, You-Know-Who, You-Know-Who #2, and Rene Dupree.
Mad Dog - October 13, 2005 10:44 PM (GMT)
I liked the Haas and Holly tag team quite a bit. They should've beaten MNM eventually. Not the Hoss Warriors.
Scrooge McSuck - October 13, 2005 10:55 PM (GMT)
Heidenreich isn't that bad either now that you mention it. It's because he's 6'7" and 300+ pounds that everyone automatically labeled him as "sucks."
The Last Free Voice - October 13, 2005 11:02 PM (GMT)
Personally, I label him as "sucks" because I don't enjoy watching his matches.

Yep. I thought the same thing.
Plus, I like this place anyway because there isn't any trashing of stuff that people haven't seen. I fucking hate reading when people trash something and they haven't even seen it. Fucking morons...............that's what mainly turned me away from TSM, besides the fact that 90% of the posters there are fucking hard on's.

I left TSM because 90% of the posters are hard-ons, the new mods were worse, and 50% of the board didn't even watch wrestling

Same here, but I really decided to stop posting there when there were talks of actually getting rid of all the wrestling related stuff and throwing it into one wrestling folder.
Scrooge McSuck - October 14, 2005 01:03 AM (GMT)
I left because I found a better (and more enjoyable) alternative in several smaller forums, this one including.

Out of curiosity, where else do you post?
And do you have a rediculous amount of posts there as well :P
Scrooge McSuck - October 14, 2005 01:14 AM (GMT)
Yes. Yes I do, but this is my #1 board to visit. It's even at the top of my Favorites... followed by 500 pages of porn... and more porn.

:lol: That's our Scrooge...
What about the thousands of Kane fan-sites you must visit?
Mad Dog - October 14, 2005 01:16 AM (GMT)
He posts at the Pit but I think he might still be under 1000 posts there.
Mad Dog - October 14, 2005 01:16 AM (GMT)
Strike that, he has 2008 there as of this moment.
Scrooge McSuck - October 14, 2005 01:20 AM (GMT)
What is this, the track the loser life of Scrooge McCrap?... Don't change my name to that.
And yes, I visit many Kane fansites. All 2 of them. Assclown.

What about your bookmarked Kane-Porn sites?
You know, the ones of you verbally blowing him.
Scrooge McSuck - October 14, 2005 09:07 AM (GMT)
How I can see myself VERBALLY blowing anyone is a mystery. Please explain how I can see myself verbally blowing someone, because it's impossible to see speaking.

That made about as much sense as Triple H's promo about attacking Flair.
Scrooge McSuck - October 14, 2005 09:52 PM (GMT)
Made more sense than watching myself verbally do anything. That must've been the most boring porn ever.
