I'm RAVENSDEFENSE52 over there.
Toon face!!!!!!!!! Toon face!!! Toon face was my favorite poster ever. Omg. It was so stupid he/she/it got banned.
And GENE. I also loved CabbagePatches and The Humane Train.
Never much cared for CPR4LIFE or DkBlue. I felt less negatively about CPR4LIFE, but that really doesn't say much. As I remember it, the Steeler troll problem on sunspot chased CPR4LIFE off long before the paywall - I felt they kind of embarrassed him. DkBlue maintains a membership over here, but, I think, quickly discovered that, in this place, the rules for being a smartass Steeler fan are a little different than the rules for being a smartass Ravens' fan.
By contrast, I do like SteelFaninBaltimore a lot. I can understand his not wanting to hang out or participate here much this off season, though. Lord knows, I can't stand their afterglowing, can't imagine he'd have much interest in ours.
Speaking of corporate entities making stupid decisions that chase off loyal and engaged board members, ESPN decided to partner with Facebook for the comment sections on their entire site. In other words, as of July 17th, you can't comment on an ESPN article or blog without a Facebook account.
Well, the loyal readers/posters of Jamison Hensley's ESPN AFC North Blog did not take very kindly to that (at all) and started their own blog - http://biguglies.com (I actually kinda like it). Today's morning post on this blog, featuring a headline and article link for each team, has 500 comments. JH's version of the same thing on ESPN - 2 comments. In fact, of the 5 blog posts that JH has put up today, those 2 comments are the only comments any of them has gotten.
I really have rarely seen people driven away so effectively. Good job, ESPN!
The reason some sites are requiring a Facebook account is so people will think twice about what they post, knowing they're not anonymous.
