    I was looking at a newer forum the other day and it was just pathetic compared to JustBBall. The members weren't as knowledgeable, it wasn't very active, and arguments between staff members were breaking out everywhere. This got me thinking and now I realize how far JBB has come since getting started a few years ago. We were at one time a small board with few members and we've really grown a lot. I'm not just talking about JustBBall as a whole either. I remember a few seasons ago this Magic forum was dead. Ice was gone and it seemed like nobody was posting anymore. We've all brought this place back to life and have put it among the best boards on JBB once again. I think JBB has improved a lot since it's "birth" and I feel we are one of the best forums out there (if not the best).

    What are you talking about? I was talking about how JBB went from being a small board with barely any members to being a pretty large forum. At no point was I patting myself on the back or anything. If your talking about my statements about the Magic forum, I'm not taking credit for that either. If anything, Gators, Chuck, and Coranor (an older member) never let this place die. I just came in after. Jeeze.

    Do 12 year olds always take everything so seriously? Damn Swish, you take not understanding sarcasm to a whole new level.

    Yeah, JBB has grown a lot since I joined too. [​IMG] [​IMG]

    The Magic Lounge has picked up the pace recently, and I think it will only get more active from here on out, since Winter Break is comnig, and the Magic are getting recognition from everywhere.

    Yeah, definitely.

    I still think we could use some more members in the Magic forum just to increase the level of discussion a bit. We're doing a good job but I think we should continue to grow. If any of you guys have friends (that counts Chuck out [​IMG]) that are Magic fans, try to get them to sign up for JBB. We're pretty active but the more members, the better.

    Hahahahahahahahahaha. You little prepubescent twerp. [​IMG]

    In actuality, I got a friend that I just recently got into the Magic (towards the end of last season), and he frequents message boards. In addition to that, he has read some of my posts here at JBB. He finishes school tomorrow so I'll see if he's interested in registering, but I'm not gonna count on it.

    Yeah talk to him about it. I tried getting one of my die hard Magic fans to sign up but I think he forgot his password. I'll try to get him to sign up again though.

    You're not the best forum.

    I didn't say we were. I said JustBBall was the best forum. [​IMG]

    You misunderstood.

    Take it however you want.

    This lounge is cool. I don't know how I lived without Chuck before.

    The forum has picked up because the Magic are doing good. That could be a reason.

    Thanks for all the kind words guys. I have tried my best in the past couple of years to make the Magic forum as active, and as good as it is. It's good to see all my hard work being paid off. Now, the Magic forum is one of the best forums on JBB. Thanks for the appreciation guys
