      What if the celebs ask for a fee to be on here? Some would probably want that. Can BScene afford that? Once a week is a big ask, as well.

      The idea is great. I remember seeing something like that, live written Q&A stream (not sure if it was BScene or another site I used to be a member of in the late, late 90s, called Doghouseboxing).

      Cleaning out the racism on NSB and moderating it consistently would be nice for now. Meaningless repetitive threads shouldn't be allowed. NSB should get its act together and clear out the trolls.

        One I thought of was trying to get some fighters - past or present, or other figures (judges/refs/promoters...ring girls here on the forum periodically for some Q and As.

        I would think the mods and site owners would like it as well as it would drive traffic and maybe bring some new eyes in to stay.

        I think it would also help lead to better boxing discussions on here...as people around the sport have some good insights usually, and can critique their peers better and more accurately generally than the average poster on here...maybe that could rub off on some here.

        Maybe a once a week Q and A?

        Any other ideas?
        When I first started frequenting the site , there was high caliber personalities who would drop by and shoot the chit ( boxers , trainers even promoters )

        5 per month and we would lose the sight unfortunately
        But I get what your saying
        It’s also wishful thinking

        This right here
        It would cost the site a few bucks to have actual watchdogs to filter out the real jerk offs who are here with an agenda instead of just actually it being their honest opinion

        And if they do all of the above , this would end up being the situation
        There would be no more forum

          I say ZERO bans. Let the people talk all the sh it they want who cares. And taking away blocking/ignore if you can dish it out but can’t take it then you don’t belong on a forum

            Greg Leon’s site used to have a live Q&A and would end with the fighter picking one person to speak with on the phone. I was picked once by Sharmba Mitchell before his fight with Mayweather. Instead of having a conversation like a normal person, I used it as an opportunity to try and change the course of boxing history by feeding him tips on how to win lol. Sorry boys. I tried my best.

                Or let us vote on who gets banned. If enough people have a legitimate reason to vote someone off.... Off with their heads

                      Ban LDBC shills. Or At least, ban shilling threads. Then regular, honest boxing fans would be willing to post more often.
