I examined the last 100 posts. 71% of them were made by only 7 posters. Sad. Any wonder why advertisers are dropping their ads on this site?

Unfortunately, many good posters left or no longer post.
I know, I post a lot less. A few idiots ruined the experience for many here. The name calling, disrespect, thread derailing, passing contests, etc, has ruined this site.

I’ve been on this site since 2005. It really isn’t much different now than it was 18 years ago. The cast of characters might change, but the name calling, disrespect and thread derailing has been going on for time immemorial.

The cast of characters has changed, or more like the names have been changed to protect the not so innocent? ;)

Guilty as charged. For what it’s worth though, I usually direct my disrespect and the disrespectful😁.

Growler was the original AZGrizFan in the Griz message boards. You weren’t around at the beginning.

Advertisers pay on the basis of clicks and views, not posts.

Stick to personal injury..... your knowledge of marketing algorithms is obviously limited

I beg to differ. There was 1000% more solid football discussed back then. Now, egriz has become the Twitter of athletic boards, and the same 3-4 posters are 100% responsible for it. They know who they are.

You mean when the Griz were winning?

All message boards are the same. When the team is winning, there is little to bitch about. When they are falling short of stated goals...bitching will increase. It's correlated and predictable.

1. “Websites earn revenue when visitors engage with their ads, commonly by generating impressions, engagements, or clicks. An advertiser, for example, might pay a publisher 20 cents per click. If their ad generates 500 clicks each day, the publisher earns $10 a day or $300 a month.Jan 21, 2020

2. “Why is revenue per click important?

This metric is pretty self-explanatory: it's the amount of revenue generated by the average click. Trends in this metric offer a lot of insight into campaign performance. If more revenue is created per click, you may be able to justify an increase in spend (assuming cost doesn't get out of hand!)“
 
I’ve been posting to this site since 2010 and read it for a few years before joining and first posting anything. I’ve seen posters come and go but it’s mostly similar to what it was 13-15 years ago as far as I can recall.

Dumb post. Really dumb.
 
It seems that play calling should be heavily scrutinized here as well. It's not just WRs failing to get open. It seems like the Griz would not use TEs or the middle of the field for large chunks of games! Play calling was too predictable at times.

Very true. But, what if the offense was predictable and still unstoppable.

Tailback - one hole for 4.
Tailback - off tackle for 5.
Tailback - one hole for 2.

Move the chains. Repeat. Mix in play action to move the ball downfield...win the conference, beat the neighbors, win the natty.

I'll take that kind of predictability.

Everything is archived. Not like you can't go back and look for yourself. It's hardly different in tenor and tone. What's missing is poster panache. The old board had it in spades.

For me, everything went to hell in a handbasket when Snap fell off the face of the earth. Boise swallowed up Ursa Major. Schi-Shau is pinching Everetts internet time. The list goes on. Sad.

Yeah. It was a veritable Utopia with Ronbo, Hammer, Silvertip, GGG, Grizo….the list DOES go on, but the conversations and pissing contests are largely the same…

Four time pissing contest winner right here. I pissed so well back then. Lost a few later on due to old age and bananas, but, man, there was a time when I could just piss with the best of them.
 
I’m hoping that we have an o line that can open holes and pass protect. If they can do this consistently we will have an awesome offense. The more you can run the better the passing game will succeed. Just saying!

Yeah, but the amateur comedians who muck-up every football discussion because they know nothing about the game, and attempt to gain respect by stupid, not-funny posts, did not occur back then.
