I wonder if there is anyway of advertising the site more ect ect I dno lol

I'm staying here, and I have no idea regarding the advertising. The other site built up its base off of stealing members from here, that much I know.

And well, cheer number of member has never been this place's trademark.. That's boxingscene.
Yes we've been very slow lately, who knows, maybe boxing discussion re-ignites again

I wouldn't care if they didn't come over to poach. It's happened before with this place. Over time we build up more members, get solid conversations going, then BANG they come over and clear everyone out and its dead for a while again. Pisses me off a bit because it's just plain obnoxious.

People get the pm to switch over, they check it out and see a lot of the former members from here are there and they go there instead. Also, I agree, Hugo is easily the most entertaining member here.

Most of the poachers were mods here. I don't really understand why someone goes through the trouble to create another site with the exact same members as here. Basically just remade this site with a different name.

There was a back story that dates back 4 or 5 years inwhich there were basically 3 or 4 mods that were bickering amongst eachother and fighting over power and whatnot.
Was basically a whole dramafest which resulted in the one going off and starting his own site and massive poaching soon followed. Really all of that drama ended up wrecking the site.

what wasn't right is that they send me an inbox-message telling me this site was closing and asking me to go there and join.
When i finally realized i was taken for a fool (like most days  ) it was a bit late

Damn I was just stopping by to see what I expected to be PAC fans offing themselves, but this place died. You can thank the dumbfuck that used to work for VS. Those other tools were merely pawns. Told y'all years ago nobody can **** with Floyd.

It was doing well up until 2 to 3 months ago....
Regardless, yes, Floyd would have handily beaten Pac at any point.
