How much longer will Sherdog last?

VR?

Holy f#$k I don't want to actually see you bastards.

Unless we can make avatars.

That'd be cool.

If we ever have VR avatars TeTe and TribalDrumz will end up getting swarmed.

I think we need to recruit new users.
The video game sub forum needs more nerds. Maybe gotta bring the IGN posters over here. If sherdog also bought some add space in the octagon that’d be nice. Or we need another ronda mcgregor once ever athlete.

lmao.. I still remember when Dana banned SD years ago, I forget why tho.. so, not likely to happen


Are the IGN boards even still around..?

sherdog's ever lasting reign will be eternal

Fuck if sherdog goes, a few dudes might go postal.

Not just Sherdog, Dana banned all the grassroots MMA news websites that covered the sport and kept it alive during the dark ages.

MMA Weekly, Full Contact Fighter - Dana booted them all. It was a big betrayal, if you ask me.

That was around 2005. There were a lot of rumors on what caused it, but I think it was straight up a control thing.

Dana didn't want independent journalists. He wanted message takers.

Same as the Reebok deal. "Professionalism" used as excuse to seize control and revenue.

I don't know, didn't Jeff Sherwood predict a thousand year Reich?

I plan on being the last sherdogger

Still remember the days when I was considered a noob because I joined after TUF season 1.

lol I had just bought a pc and gotten online around that time- nobody I knew had internet/computer in ‘93

 

[dittohead84]

I remember lurking back in circa '03 when some of the highlighted threads appeared on the .com site. That was the start of me wasting so much time in the college library. Funny seeing the country guys getting their sex talk on in the chatrooms "oh baby I'm coming!" lmao

Shame about reddit... Massive forum that has the ugliest, most difficult UI to follow on the internet. Talk about an eyesore.

Its gui is absolutely atrocious. Have no idea how anyone can stand reading through posts with that layout

 

[NoSmilez]

The website used to have weird ass people posting in it and it was funny as hell. There was some Jason Delucia and Bas thing. I am not even sure that was real. I cant really remember any newer UFC fighters that post on sherdog anymore. Last one I remembered was Bec Rawlings but I wasn't sure that was really her or her abusive husband. I am pretty sure some sherdog members simped over her in the DMs.

I'm guessing reddit which allows hot ordinary women to post explicit nudes of themselves has no trouble selling ads to be seen by big daily reddit visitors.

lol.. she gave the OT a test, I do remember that. And I think Phil Baroni used to still stop in and post as recently as a couple years ago


@PhilBaroni


^Eh, says 2017 was the last active post.. thought it was more recent

As long as MMA stays alive sherdog will stay alive for a long time. A few photography forums I use to go on are still going strong. I haven't been on bb.com forums in ages so I have no idea what's going on there. Is the misc section still a thing? When I was hardcore into sneakers/street wear all the forums from the mid 2000s are gone. Hypebeast and ISS were two big ones. I think Nike Talk still exist but haven't checked. Flyertalk is still active for saavy travelers. I use to go on a forum when I played Diablo II, counterstrike, street fighter. I'm guessing all those forums are gone or dead.

Somehow after all these years (including a few years of lurking prior to opening an account) I'm still on sherdog despite my lower interest in MMA compared to the good ol days.

The misc and niketalk still going strong. You have good taste

 

[Oliver Clothesoff]

It'll stay around as long as it is funded. That is the sad truth of just about everything on the Internet.

Anyone else remember that time they had to vaporize millions of likes just to avert server meltdown?
