So, one dudes opinion, take it for it's exceedingly low value: I've posted here at various times since JI died because of the people here, the ex-Hampurites, the guys I hold in fond memory and respect. Guys like Jetworks. I never posted here because of football. I only ever visited the Hampur section. I think I have what, like 5 posts in the actual football section and none anywhere else. It was always the Hampur here, the PEOPLE here I missed. No offense, if I want football talk, it's just alot better at JN. If this site existed for football and I didn't know any of you or have fond JI memories of you all.....I'd not spend a second here. Sorry. As to Max's limits of some topics keep the focus on football, and I think thats the right choice for JN......despite my occasional attempt to push that boundary, lol. Crusher for example is as good a dude as you could possibly want as a Mod (comparing him to Ham? Lol!) but he's does what a good Mod does, he's non confrontational, doesn't get bogged down in personal shit, and he follows the site owners rules. So some topics get locked, we all get it it, we all move on. JN really isn't about the good bants. As for me, I stopped posting here (but I still read the Hampur section it on and off pretty regularly) around the time Stokes came back from the nethers. He and me, yeah, just not people who would associate in any realm I think. His return quickly devolved into me not enjoying the "good bants" here anymore. Same goes for Shakin. The bants weren't good bants, they felt like shitty bitter not-so-veiled dislike bants, and no one needs shitty bants in their lives. And I think I was taking the bants too seriously so it was time to go. Plus I get more than enough of that on the one non-Jets forum I partake of regularly, lol. So I ditched out. Honestly, I wasn't missed, so I think it's all good! Lets be honest, I was always barely-fringe Hampur Crew anyway I think. So today I waste my hours obsessing at JN over the Jets, like JI back in the day, and spend little to no time at JN on making friends, telling/reading funny stories or all the great hampur-style off-topic fun posting of days long past. As I said to Jetworks a little while back, I have nothing but respect for what you guys did here after JI died. You kept the folks together, and that's damn admirable. But I think if this place were to go away, I'd love to see you all on JN, but I think many of you would find it far too limiting and not enjoy it. So yeah, a longwinded, overly serious post in a thread almost assuredly not intended for any kind of serious talk of any kind, but hey, that's why no one missed Warfish anyway amiright? Lol! Love to you all, truly. Fist, I always thought of you as part of the gang. Another finger on the doot-hand. And for your info. Stokes was chased outta here by another mouth-breather over recipe arguments. If that alone doesnt sell this place as pure comedy gold, nothing will.

With the benefit of hindsight, this virtual island of misfit toys was doomed from the start. We had nothing to keep us grounded. We started out and remained untethered to any underlying principal or mission other than our perpetual self amusement. It was not by any accident that "lunatics running the asylum" became our pictorial theme. And really, "Welcome, Dickheads!" (full disclosure - it made me giggle when I said it in my head). Who were we fooling? Did anyone really want other people to join us? This place was never meant for anyone other than the hampurites who where abandoned by JI. It was an internet life raft. But, you have to get off the life raft eventually, and we slowly, but surely, lost people. Some swam for shore. Others were thrown out of the raft.
I enjoy seeing some familiar screen faces over at JN. It will never be as fun as this place once was. But life moves on. One thing that really amuses me is the reality that, ironically, there are lots of Dickheads over at JN, and they didn't even put up a banner welcoming them.

Love to you all, truly. Nicely written post and sentiment. As for the part in bold? I could not agree with you more. Crusher is an awesome person. One of my all time favorite posters and mods. He's often really, really on it comedy wise.

Havent ventured over there in a while, but there is some comedy gold in some of the one-liners in the "Please no Rosen" thread that got closed. Some funny fuckers.

I agree. Even at J.I. I read the football posts waaaaay more than I posted simply because plenty of dudes seemed to be alot more informed and passionate about the details. I had little to offer but vague opinions but I learned alot from the really informed dudes...same could be said about the posters here. Some real smart, informed guys whom I enjoy reading. I dont need much more..and if I do (specific player info etc.) I know where to go to find out. Some of the shrill, argumentative dooshes that I hated on the Landing strip seemed to have disappeared, which is good.

There is no way I would have ever stuck around on JI if it wasn’t for the Hampur. The land of mosfit toys is a perfect description.
A lot of laughs, a lot of idiocy and even dome semi-intelligent conversation. So I was glad when many of us ended up here. But this place was probably always doomed to fail.
If this place finally shits the proverbial bed, I hope most of us end up in some other shithole so it will be bearable.
And Warfist, you were ok in my book.

So to summarise: You go to JN for your football talk and here for your jollies? I’d still rather talk football here if I’m honest, I mean where else can you get away with saying...
Geno - Dumb cow grazing in a field.
Fitz - Drunk bearded noodle armed mick.
Robby - Smacked-up little gangster wannabe.
Bowles - Fat Bubba Gump Malteser head.
Rex - Turkey neck bastard.
Mac - Four eyed Irish Faggot
Jets - Disgusting, complete failure of a cunting franchise.
All these need to be said to have a good ball debate IMO and all will end in thread lockdowns and bans anywhere else. This asylum is my home.

We are the Lunchroom table with all the kids who tried cigarettes before they were 10, who didn't wanna be Jocks or true Rats.
We also are the kids who could roll a Beer keg into the fields and remember to bring cups....
Fuck JN we would fuck them up in a pick up Football game too.

As bad as this team has sucked since I’ve been following them, a humorless jets message board is a useless jets message board. If and when this place goes belly up, I’m done.
