    Non Stop Boxing = Hype

    Well it does, doesn't it?

    This is why very few people will write anything remotely sensible on this thread.. Everything in life is evaluated by percentages..
    So I think it's fair to say, that around 75% of the posters on NSB are clueless hype mongers..
    I've noted, that the 'Parrot' threads are the most popular.. A little bit like scrambling for marbles on the school playground..
    Children find marbles fascinating, even though most of them are almost identical.. It's the same with a lot of the threads on NSB..
    For example.. If someone posts a thread saying, Mayweather Sucks ****, the chances are, it will get 90% more attention than a post that says Holyfield ATG? As if that isn't bad enough, within a couple of days, 3 more threads will be posted saying PBF Sucks, Gayweather's scared of Pac & Is PBF Gay? What ever way you look at it, this is a game for youngsters, not boxers or their fans.. I think all the hype mongers should be banned..
    Before anyone says, Stay on Boxing History you old ****, I'd like to point out, that if the sports history doesn't interest you then you have no right to discuss it's presence.. I've lost count of the times knowledgeable/detailed posts have been totally ignored, because juvenile posters are either too embarrassed to throw their hats into the ring, or are too busy trying to be an abusive Parrot, & simply won't allow themselves any room to learn about their chosen subject.. It's as if they're at school in a double maths lesson & can't wait for the bell to ring, so they can go scram for marbles again..
    All I'm asking, is for some stability, for the hype to stop.. Is that too much to ask? I think it is.. Can anyone prove me wrong??

      I don't think there is anything wrong with posters hyping a fighter they like but I agree I've had enough of the needless fighter bashing or fighter nuthugging threads! There are still a lot of quality amongst the rubbish though and you've just got to weed out the good threads and posts from the bad!! I do think BPP needs to do a clear out though!

          We can all point the finger at the community as a whole, but this site in general does nothing to get rid of the bad eggs. The bad eggs only have to create a new account and rinse-repeat.

          About 95% of the members of this site has potential, but 5% can be disruptive enough to lower not only the expectations of the rest, but also drag some otherwise decent posters down with them.

          There are many posters in here who have been banned 10+ times. They are never truly banned though. They only get their name taken away until they can make up a new one. So this sites own policies is at the minimum partly to blame.

            Ok, two things:

            First, and to answer most of your question(s)...the average ******* here is probably 18 to 25, and a mental midget. When you have a majority of immature kids on a forum, you'll get a majority of ****** threads. Don't get me wrong, there are some great guys here too, with as much knowledge of the sport as many professionals who are in the business, but they're not in the majority. Making it a pay site would help, but it would also reduce the number of members by at least 90%, making it almost pointless to have the forum in the first place.

            And second:
            Forget about the second, I was going to mention some experiences I had in the country where you live, but to be honest, they are irrelevant, and highly XXXX-rated anyway.
