    There's already a Blazers site for that - Blazersedge

    IMO we don't need it here.

    I've never taken part in Reddit, but that interface is ugly.

    Once a year or so, I unblock all....one at a time....and check recent history. People change sometimes. That said, I usually find the same triphammer reposting of the same hate.

    Thank god.

    I like reddit but I hate the indented replies. I tend to skip over those cause it's overwhelming.

    Are we going to still have our likes and trophy points?

    I occasionally trade in my trophy points for gift cards here around town.

    I've been getting a few PM's about this upgrade. Including more than one person threatening to leave over it.

    All we are doing is upgrading to the latest and greatest version of the same software we are using now.

    If you scroll down to the very bottom of this screen, you will see that the version of software we are currently using is from 2010.

    I have been the one bugging Denny for the upgrade. The number one reason for this, is how hard and outdated our ability to post media/links from other social media sites.

    The following either don't work at all or don't work correctly:

    Youtube Shorts
    X/Twitter
    Instagram
    Tik Tok
    Facebook
    Reddit
    Bluesky
    ESPN
    CNN
    Amazon
    Plus others I can't think of.

    One of the nice things about this place is the ability to share and talk about things from other sites. That is becoming increasingly more difficult with our old software. Hell, many of these social media sites weren't even around when this software was first written.

    Also, this forum will display better on mobile devices.

    In 2010, the percentage of people primarily using smartphones to view the internet was extremely low. Globally, mobile devices accounted for only 1.6% of all web browsing, with desktop computers dominating traffic.

    As of 2025, approximately 62% to 64% of global web traffic comes from mobile devices, a figure that continues to rise.
    Likes and basic format will remain the same. Also, our years of old posts should also make the journey.

    Our number one goal in all of this is to make it easier and more fun to talk about the Blazers and sports.

    I don't know. This reminds me too much of the premise to the Terminator series.

    Look. We just want our Likes. We don’t want you to still have that statement we made a decade ago available to hold over our heads.

    SLY, if somebody took the time out of their day to contact you and threatened to leave over THIS…..they aren’t emotionally stable enough to be here in the first place. Let ‘em go.
    Also, I could count on one paw how many people’s old posts are worthy of re-reads, sorry you aren’t one of ‘em.

    Yeah only issue I have is the ability to post IG Reels and when I try to share a picture, the ones we take on our phones are way to large of file size. I have to screen grab my pics twice to shrink em down.
