MVCFANS: How to survive

[C0|dB|00ded]

I am going to make a concerted effort to make it over to the other Mbbbs or whatever it is this season. I have a friend tell me about MVCFans every once in awhile but it sounds like I am not missing anything anymore.

Think of your contributions over at MVCFans as a duty rather than being about what you are missing. The unwashed over there need your help.

It's been said numerous times, "recruiting is like shaving, if you don't do it every day, you look like a bum.” :chuncky:

By the way, I do like your new beard. :barbershop_quartet_

I hope Shocker fans avoid joining that site; it is a joke. Reading it is fun but posting there is silly; you're wrong (in the view of posters, administrators, and moderators there) no matter what you say.

Fixed.

Ditto.

That i why the CSN board is where I go. I et to learn and get input from many other schools and leagues. Also fun when pipe in unbiased opinions.

I hear the mod there is very laid back. And a Shocker fan. But he gets monitored by the overall board owners. He has no dog in the fight.

Went to CSN and saw your post re: "Evansville to the Horizen". Is that the correct site?

I signed up last night, but don't have permissions to do anything. Help a brother out?

Kung Wu -- the good and the bad is all approvals are done by the board. They are normally pretty good about approving them.

Obvious... Ly.

Still no bueno. In fact this process is no bueno. Without near instant gratification I don't see this forum taking off at all. Could be wrong tho.

[Aargh]

What is this board you speak of. I can't find it by Googling anything I've seen in this thread.

Try pulling your pants down and looking backwards in a mirror.

Edit: LOL I thought it was a sarcastic comment about MVCFans. @downtown @SubGod22: sorry, no disrespect meant.

Or "blue gnats", as rjl put it. Speaking of, there's another one I haven't seen around these parts in a while.

I'm still here. Just not much time to post anything these days, nor do I really have anything to say considering not much goes on in the offseason that isn't overtly obvious like "we signed a player" or "a player transferred away." Me, I'm just laying on my couch hundreds of miles away, hacking away on my laptop in my flannel pajamas, and I can't really think of anything I have to say about the subject because everything I know about the subject I just read in the thread.

As far as MVCFans is concerned, I have come to realize that I give absolutely no shits at all about any of the other Valley teams. I mean, any substantive information that ever gets posted there--for example, UNI signing a player, SIU losing a player, etc.--is so ****ing uninteresting to me I would rather read the wikipedia page for the word "boring." The simple fact that, according what I have just read here, every thread there turns into a Shocker hate-fest is proof positive that the posters there harbor some intense feelings about WSU, and they see MVCFans as a safe place to congregate and tug each other to death about how much Wichita sucks and how terrible the Shockers will be this season and, oh my god, trailer parks and fat people and fast food are totally the only things in Ta-Town.

Speaking to these people on any level that resembles reason is pointless, simply because these are unreasonable people, or, at the very least, reasonable people who go to MVCFans.com to be unreasonable. That, and, at a certain level, arguing about which team is better when the teams will all actually play one another is a bit like dancing about architecture. If we think WSU is way underrated this year, typing words to be read by morons certainly doesn't sound like the sort of thing that will convince a moron, but beating their ass on the court will be a bit more persuasive.

Since these people are so beyond convincing, and reasonable words only have effect on reasonable people, the best move is to let the site devolve into the cesspool of idiocy that we all know it is--as one stupid post begets and even more stupid post--so if some hapless reasonable person should stumble upon it, the site's absurdity will do far more to convince them than any of us ever could. It's essentially the same move I have successfully made with this site's political forum.

www.mvcbbs.com

I think that redirects you to csnbbs.com. But it's moderated by @SubGod22: I believe.

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

I posted some info about the mvcbbs.com site on there. Should help with some of the questions I have been getting.

Sorry for delay in some getting access. That is out of my control. You can read more about it there.

[Ricardo del Rio]

I just don't get why anyone would want to go to a site like MVCFans.com.

For the arrogant, illogical posters, there is joy in tail twisting, though sophomoric it may be.

You should publish that.
