I never go over there anymore. Thought it was a big mistake to merge the board and it's looking like that is true.
Just for kicks I decided to go look at it and there wasn't even a game day thread. The board is dead, even on opening day.
Banks81 even started a post about the place being dead. Was asking where all the regulars are and got no response.
Should we tell him to come over here?

I'm surprised the guys at Scout haven't tried to back out of the deal with Ballbather.
How much fucking traffic could that board possibly generate?
Maybe it generated some at first, when people would try to visit the old JI board and get automatically redirected to Scout...but clearly no one has decided to hang around that place. It's literally the deadest Jets message board I've seen.

That's really the only explanation. Last time I went there was maybe two months ago and the fucking draft thread was still near the top of the main board. With all of maybe 18-20 replies...throughout the entire draft. |

But seriously seeing Ragu and others go in and carpet bomb threads was amazing. I guess they got the email list, but I doubt that has been monetized in any way. Sad. I love this place, but miss JI.

BUT YOU CAN GET 90% OFF A YEAR'S SUBSCRIPTION!!!!!!!!!! I wish Ballbathersayer would drop by. |

There's a post on there advertising another Jets board and it hasn't even been locked/deleted. It's like no one even cares.

I have seen this with other boards too. The owners see thousands of "members" but the reality is that many members sign up and never return. Anyone who was a regular on JI knew that there were a few hundred posters who frequented it and really only a relatively small amount that posted daily.
After the board changed, the reality of how few members actually posted became very apparent. I'd be very curious about what percentage of members actually became members of scout and of those, how many actually stayed after realizing what a lousy platform scout is.
It's pathetically bad right now. No game day thread? Wow!
Turn out the lights.... the party's over.
