This site is now ten years old, I want to thank EVERYONE here for making this site what it is today. The staffs vision for this site has exceeded all expectations. It is you the members that deserve all the credit. When we first started this board I never thought it would still be going like it is today. I hope everyone is satisfied with it and encourage you all to let us know what you want to improve it. We have members from all over, Canada, Spain, Germany, Brittan, and lastly our Service Members from all points of the globe whom I am eternally grateful.

I want to point out a few that have caught my eyes in posting everyday, bringing quality info, (not sources), all in all making this site better

Thanks to yall for giving us a non crazy (except for that one guy, yall know who I mean) place to come and actually have decent discussions. And I havent even been banned/suspended in like 2/3 years! :td:
 
LOL, I cant remember who suspended you, but I will say this, I have always been against banning Bama fans. I got banned one time from a Bama board, and thus the reason for this board. Thats how this board started, get a bunch of disgruntled Bama fans, ban them and boards like this rise up. LOL
 
I cant remember either, I got banned for trashing Lionell Mitchell (I think) pretty hard one game or maybe Marquis Johnson in like 2006 and the other time I called a mod a moron lmao I have mellowed over the years.

Staff are not excluded from being morons, lol. That one board I got banned from was because of a issue with a mod. Needless to say he didn't like what I had to offer. All BS aside, this board has some of the most knowledgeable, tolerant, and truly great insightful posting members that I have ever had the privilege to converse with. You all mod the board and will give it to each other that go off base, which makes it easy for everyone. Funny watching it happen and unfold, Mods rarely have to do anything, cause you all get to it with the quickness.
 
Was TP one of the original founders also? I know he adds a ton of good content as well but I've only been around 7 years or so. I also do not frequent any other Bama forums. Love this one! One day I'll make it back for a home game and meet some of you guys and thank you in person with a handshake.

It's great to be from Alabama, yesterday, today, and tomorrow!! Roll Tide!!
 
Wow, thank you so much!!! :chat2_cheers:

It's really a pleasure to be here, I don't have any fellow Alabama fans up here and this place is my sanctuary! Yall always post really good stuff, I feel like my football and Bama knowledge increases daily.

Thanks mods for keeping this place running in tip top shape. Hope you meet you all someday! :tennis:

ROLL TIDE!!!! And happy birthday RTR!! Hope you enjoyed your present/Auburn losing :icon_lol:
 
I have been on here for years and have gone through several board changes while a memeber. I enjoy keeping up with Bama sports on here bc let's face it, in Ohio I don't get very much coverage. Thanks to all the folks who put this site together and inviting me to the site many years ago.

Terry came in a little later but had Administrator qualities and great knowledge of Alabama sports and jumped right in and fined tuned it here. Doemasters, Porter(Brandon Van de Graaff), Porchop, Bamafan4ever, BamaBo (JimBo), rammerjammer,Bamaman37,It Takes Eleven, Crimson Pirate, Rick4bama, Kudzu, reger60, argo, planomateo, BamaJay73 and a few others all helped to make it.
As of now
The guy that pays the bills, does the photography and keeps the site running is Doemasters, Terry maintains the site as well and is the all around ebb and flow of the site with Brandon (Porter). The rest of these guys do a awesome job of providing quality info, and maintain facts instead of siting sources and such. One person whom we lost recently was our voice of reason, most evenly mannered person I have ever had the privilege to meet and know, and we all dedicate this site to him for that is BamaBo or Jimbo. I sure miss him.

The actual site is ran by you all though, we firmly believe that, and are thankful for each of you.
 
I've enjoyed my short stay here. Lurked for a long while, just never joined. It's a good vibe, though. Good peeps. Except XXL, of course.

We'll I'll give a special thanks round of applause to Doemasters then. Thank you sir! We all recognize that there are certainly costs involved in this venture.
