why do you hate website owners so much?

 

i hate ads.

 

and i've stated in the past that i'd happily send money to support this board rather than clicking on dumb ads about whether i can pass an american citizenship quiz.

I might need it in writing that this money won't be used for illicit purposes, and only for maintaining the site.

I guess to sum it up, others are most likely in the same boat that I am....it's a great repository of daily information.

 

Agreed. While it's probably true that more people would post if some of the old-timers didn't look for the most abrasive way to make their point, I'm guessing most of the lurkers probably aren't going to post regularly anyway and just use this as a news site. And it's one I'm grateful for. I sincerely appreciate those who follow the Jason Parks and Keith Law types on Twitter so I don't have to, and I'm sure a lot of others feel the same.

How come?

 

Twitter is way better for this. Like way, way better.

I have yet to really utilize twitter for baseball. I usually only come here for info unless someone posts a link to somewhere else.

What do you use it for?

 

I basically only use it for following sports. Of the 200 or so accounts I follow, I'd guess that 190 of them are sports related and like 2 are my niece and nephew and 8 friends that I bother following.

Don't use it all. I signed up to get in a contest or something and really haven't signed back in much. My phone dies quickly so lots of tweets would make it die even sooner.

Besides, audio ads are the real reason NSBB is terrible now.

 

And anyone who says "adblock" is the reason the world is terrible now.

I wondered if anyone else thought those sucked. I hate hate hate hate audio adds.

Sports, some gaming news, and some comics news for me.

 

Basically, whatever your interests might be, you can find people on twitter that mostly tweet about that topic.

For just news aggregation, sure. But since I'm coming here anyway to read what's being said about it, I may as well skip a step, and just get my news here and pare down my Twitter feed by 200 posts a day.

I believe the talking ads were the ones on the bottom of the page. I've replaced those with text ads that shouldn't talk.

 

If anyone continues getting talking ads, please let me know where on the page they originate.

 

Thanks!
