Why don't fighters and journalists engage with the community?

[PubliusVentidius]

Ariel Helwani used to have an account here I think, dunno what happened but I don't think he posts here anymore, it's obvious most fighters and people working in the mma scene read this forum but they don't engage in it, how come? Even Reddit has more ''celebs'' than Sherdog (Shane Carwin writes there for example lol).
Maybe a lot of fighters do post here but ''undercover'' so to speak? Reveal thyself.

"blah blah fuck you you suck blah blah."

ya, that'd be fun and i'm sure they'd rush back.

Why wouldn't they want to go to a place with random asshats constantly talking about how much they suck?

 

[Rimbaud82]

Too many morons and trolls on here.

 

[The Natural Born Runner]

Why would you? Surely lurking is just as effective.

 

[ralphus1]

I imagine many lurk, but few admit it.

Otherwise it would lead to constant questions about training, or worse, trolls begging for attention.

McCall used to come around here but this is Sherdog where he was probably called a cuck and a bitch.

 

[PlatinumAmerican]

Who cares about name calling pros should come on here and roast some sherbros lmao

I believe that they do lurk this forum, because topics we have discussed on Sherdog have shown on up on the MMA Hour and the MMA Beat.

The journalist can't handle the truth about how much they suck. Most narcissists (Schlub) like to be surrounded by sycophants.[

Ariel got banned on Sherdog for spamming Fanhouse links years ago. His fragile ego won't allow him to come back.

Most fighters also have fragile egos and can't handle the truth talk and awesome shoops here on Sherdog, so they opt to post on lame PC communities like r/MMA and UG with Nazi mods that treat them with kid gloves and would ban anyone with a dissonance voice.

These people are the worst. Why would anybody involved in the actual sport want to talk to any of these pathetic fucks?

I wish a ninja would.
