    It's kind of annoying to see years old threads on the board, as if they have some kind of relevance to today.

    It has made things more interesting. I logged on and was like, "Trade with Denver?"

    Mods here are more concerned about personalizing battles with mere posters as opposed to actually moderating? :dunno:

    Yeah, with all the money they're making from moderating this site they should be much more vigilant!

    Sorry, we were all out riding around in Denny Crane's new Aston Martin. It's pretty sweet.

    I think I saw you guys. Were you the one who sat up on the top of the convertible's seat, Farrah Fawcett-style, with your hair blowing in the wind?

    Are you serious? The guy bumped 60 or 70 old threads, made a mess of the Blazer forum, and just to top it off, the "bump" messages were all blatant personal attacks. Yeah, one of the mods got a little irritated. Can you sit there with a straight face and claim *you* wouldn't have been annoyed in their shoes?

    Its amazing what the power of a search engine on this site will do to pick up old threads. :)

    Im not sure which thread you are talking about in particular but SOMETIMES I really like it when a thread gets bumped. Its a snapshot in time and really makes you think about your reasoning at the time....

    ...I mean cmon, wouldnt finding a "Draft Adam Morrison" thread and reading posts of posters you still know be hilarious. Everybody makes mistakes....

    A draft day discussion thread from 3-5 years back or something like that would be cool too


    edit: oh...i see there was drama, not just one or two threads

    A couple of old threads were spammed and the user's posts were deleted so it looks like the thread was bumped by a ghost.
