I have seen a ton of new posters lately with only a couple of posts that have join dates around April and May of 04. Whats wrong with this picture? These guys have been members since nearly a year ago and they are just now posting? Must be a glitch in the system or something. Rick, do you have any idea what the deal is? Surely there isn't suddenly a whole bunch of guys who haven't posted in nearly a year who have decided to start in the last few weeks. It's happening alot or I wouldn't have noticed it.

What does it matter anyway? A bunch of bored guys decided all at the same time to resurrect and join the action. I say the more, the merrier! :p

Some of us like boxing but don't know enough to get into the technical posts, also have limited access to it, can't all afford Sky Sports, have to make do with Eurosport :(
Personally I enjoy reading the other posts. I would like to have access to the downloads but seeing as I'm a member of Boxing Torrents with a good share ratio I make do with that.

Cheers, Lol

go check out the members list, overwelming majority of the members on this site dont have a single post. alot of people probably just enjoy the news coverage and took the time to become a legit member. a long time ago i even heard a few guys say they were "shy" about posting. shy on the internet? :p

some people enjoy boxing for a phase, for example after seeing a big fight that has had loads of media attention they think wow boxing is cool, then after a while of not many big publicity fights they will lose interest, happens a lot here in england as there are very few fights shown on tv and since lewis retired and hamed stopped hatton is really the only guy anyone will know, british boxing isnt very big with the public... sadly

I explained that here...I'm one of those peeps. I registered in May but somehow couldn't get in....I believe it's because of the yahoo email that I have. I tried several times until I gave up...then suddenly I found the confirmation on my trash (or was it bulk?)e-mail last December 2004 then.....wala!! I could now get in and post!! Strange indeed. :eek:

Another poster had the same situation..his name is nadz24.

I bet it will pick up more when we have something to reaqlly discuss, boxing has been really slow since the holidays, but it will pick up real soon.
