Probably a big reason that it’s “no longer.” No one likes a dictatorship but the dictator. Matt is no dictator. Just sayin’
Actually, the guy who "owned" and paid for the mvlforum site was caught in a drug sting selling heroin. I won't mention the name, but the former educator and coach is now in prison. The family or someone kept it going a couple years.

Threads were not shut due to free speech issues. He just waited until the thread had ran it's course and locked it to keep threads current. Didn't stop people from copying and pasting if they wanted to show they predicted something or how wrong another poster was.

Oh well then by all means let’s do what the drug dealer did and cater to the people complaining and totally disregard what anyone else wants. SMDH

I'm for deleting a thread if it hadn't been commented on in years.

i'm for that... or at the very least put threads 2 years or older in a separate forum for those who like to bring up the past.

This is a good idea, but old things on here is like going to a library. If libraries kept getting rid of old things historians wouldn't be able to research.

Well if we are gonna get rid of old posts, then we should get rid of a certain few old posters who serve no purpose as well.

Same here. I don’t see any reason to change what we have.

No comment. Noreply66 is watching. He leads the league in users banned!
What kind of things does fb not allow you to say?

thank you noreply66. i think a separate threads for older threads would make it easier to peruse each forum. you're right about libraries too.
i'm throwing my two cents in even though its not my site and mattash can run it any way he feels.

have to respect Matt when talking about what he deleted before. There was a lot of good material there. I know when it comes to sport sites, I use to be able to go back further than I can now when it came to cross country and track. I lot of stats can't be review now
