Hey everyone, huge, huge fan of the site. I've been here for a little over a week now and I'm getting a feel for the community and how everything works here. I miss old school forums like this as I spent my teenage years on a few. Bottom line is I plan on making myself at home here, using all the hot water, drinking milk out of the jug etc. If anybody has any info that new people should know, or any resources I should use to deep dive into Pankration that would be cool, though I've already figured out how most of the site works. I'm going to really try to get some discussion going on here, or at least just mess around and amuse myself.

Hello Shat. Best thing you can do is turn up for the live discussions during live UFC events. That's where the action is. Plenty of banter. Outside of this, not much talking happens. Some more useful site information:

A) I generally hate WMMA, and even when I don't, it's typically only because I'd like to **** one of the competitors, and I'm prone to talking about that quite a lot, and trashing fighters I simply don't like fairly routinely--especially serial **** sniffers who press their opponents against the cage with their face embedded tick-deep in their balls. I'm here for violence, not to be brokeback mountained. Please sign on for my Avaaz campaign in which I'm pushing for WMMA to happen in the nude, and for a rule change that demands at least three north/south positions per round.

B) Make sure you join the free entry games to earn chips. I'll post a link on how to do that.

C)`Everyone hates John Jones and is praying for him to have a leisure suit larry type death as soon as possible.

E)  If in doubt about a pick, consult worstpredictionman.

F) Non-Major events you make picks in don't get updated automatically, and take some time to tick over.

That's about it.

Oh--and Greg is a Jew.

Enjoy.

Thanks for the warm welcome Fishrat, worstpredictionman alone is worth his weight in gold. You practically handed me Biff's Almanac there, though I do tend to listen to MMA Expert Skip Bayless for the last word in combat sports, his insight is spot on. Appreciate the link man, answered the questions I had left.

What a great way to welcome a new member, ImperatorFishrat!  Sexism and antisemitism! What a ******* welcome wagon. 


Over the last couple of years this forum has become flooded with *********s. I don't even know why I post here anymore. Habit I guess.

@AnAlias are you calling @Fish a *********? How? He's almost outpicked you in 3 years. You have more forum posts than picks...I know you're not a troll, but that's troll behavior. 


All these "*********s" are actually picking fights though...




the 2011 class of this website seems to be the worst. All of you are so entitled yet don't pick that many fights...Its incredibly confusing. 


The times are changing, that's all. There are THOUSANDS of more users than in 2011. We get it, there used to be 25 people on the site who got along and picked fights, watched PRIDE together...I get it. Sounds like a brotherhood..but there's just 1 problem. You guys were never that good at picking fights..

So I take offense to this whole "past couple of years its been getting bad" rhetoric when in reality, its the opposite. Guys like Fish, Free, Brad, Bry & Mikey are the ones keeping this place going...and this site has improved LEAPS & BOUND since 2016, when I joined. Thanks to guy like me. Not the OG's. 


@AnAlias I respect your opinion, especially with grappling, but you remind me of an old Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino. "Those damn kids I swear" while sitting on your porch doing nothing.

What the **** does how many picks I make have to do with anything?  I normally just ignore most of what you post, MassaBruce because you're often the biggest ****** of them all, and I don't have time for that ****. I guess I'm just in a particularly ****** mood today.

This site was made for 1 thing and 1 thing only...to pick fights. 


You don't pick that many fights and just called a group of people who actually pick fights, trolls. 


Doesn't make anysense. You're right, I am a ******. I've been working on that. Notice the "i respect your opinion" but I know its not enough...because you can't handle disagreement. Because you're a silly old man :) 


Your class is the most annoying on here...none of you can handle a discussion without it being an argument. That's a troll. Case & point.

I never called anyone a troll. The site has many features, not just picking fights. I pick the fights I want to pick. How many fights someone picks or doesn't could not possibly be more inconsequential.

You're wrong my friend. 

"over the past couple of years this forum has been flooded with trolls". 

Which includes guys like Fish and pretty much myself. Because guys like us are the ONLY ONES in these supposed forums man. You're barely around. Who are these trolls? Me? The guy who does EVERYTHING you don't? You want to upload fights for WEF Global? Why not? The guy who does spend time for some random ass promotion is a ******? Why? Because I despise lazy people? 



Maybe the new users would respect the OG's more if you guys were around & actually put forth effort again. You miss those "glory days" so bad then why not do something about it? You should know way more than myself...yet, wiki after wiki its @Freemoney & Myself updating.

Wow. You actually just quoted me, but changed "*********s" to "trolls" as if people can't just scroll up and read the post. You are something else man.
