I'm making this thread, not to try and troll, but because I feel it is a necessary question to ask.  I was talking with some people who frequent this forum and we noticed that there is a lack of an aura of fun on the forum.  Sure the site itself is growing and the viewing threads are entertaining, but as far as the forum as a whole goes, it doesn't feel like it is as lively like it was when I first started posting regularly.  There isn't many forum games anymore (especially with the long hiatus to BLC).  There isn't any goofy fun threads to just post in.  A lot of the weird characters that used to create mischief are gone or banned.  It feels vacant and is making the forum part of the site feel rather dull, because we as users have nothing fun to do.

I guess my question is: what can we do to make this place more exciting and more compelling to post on?

And as an additional question: is there any new features you as mods can add that would add some interest?

@anaconda you've been banned before for spewing racist garbage.  now you ask someone to commit suicide, you say how much we suck and how much you hate the place. 

goodbye, don't come back!

@GreenHornet Knowing him, probably eating kimchee while his wife continues wearing the pants. :) 

In all seriousness, hope he comes back soon. He said he was taking a break.

Another problem with all of these 'trolls' is that they're usually too stupid to realize what the lines are, and when they cross them they get banned. I used to get banned all the ******* time, until I mastered the art of insulting people without getting banned. Wolf has always been good at annoying without getting banned too, until he stopped giving a ****. 

The mods have always been consistent when it comes to certain no-tolerance rules, an example being racism. It's the insecure personalities that cross it and then are suspended as a result.

Cthulhu as an example, got butt hurt about that finishers ******** and so he started saying racist **** everywhere. What the **** are the mods supposed to do in that situation, when someone is directly testing them? 
Also shout out to our residential Satan worshipper and Chase's best friend. I don't have a link to the IRC, can someone hook me up so that I could stop by when I get the chance?

That realization that there's a bunch of grown men having arguments about why they don't like to frequent a forum anymore for a website that they are currently on. This type of ****posting is why I don't post on forums much anymore. Let's talk about the fights, the fighters, the promotions, possible matchups but leave all your trolling and ****posting for Sherdog.

Yeah, let's not discuss how to possibly make the forums better and possibly more active again. Or we could just continue to let the forum die it's slow death, doesn't matter much to me either way. Btw your post contributed nothing to the topic, get this **** posting out of my sight bro.

I'd be at 90+ percent if I didn't throw picks on purpose due to being humble. Maybe you shouldn't brag too much dad, I mean hobo.

I popped in this thread because I saw Skelli talking about ham. I came back to Anaconda telling people to commit suicide.

That Anaconda_choke guy thinks he's too cool for school ... he made an insinuating remark about me in one of this comments on this thread ( and others ).. funniest thing is that if he stepped on a mat with me , I could make him cry no problem  ( or it would have re think your life affect on him ...) who the hell is that guy to be judging a down and  condescending others ... its about building people and empires , not  breaking them down

I own two shotguns. I have a Kel-Tec KSG shotgun. its one of the baddest shotguns on the planet. i also own a savage shotgun, I have  Glock 10mm and 30/30 rifle too.  I can shoot my guns all day out here and its no big deal.  the only animal i would kill is a charging grizzly and you better have a glock 10mm b/c 9mm pistols have been known to just piss off grizzly's and you end up dead. i bet the guy whose username is anaconda choke has a snake somewhere in his house. don't sleep to heavily  b/c you might have an accident. - _ =
