I don’t post much, but this is home to me. I migrated from the old Rivals board (which was a zoo) to ES well before it became “official” and then, thanks to an OM’s invite back in 09’, here. Why do I stay?
Well, this place is full of good people. The staff is sensible and runs the site like it should be run, without a lot of drama. That’s such a breath of fresh air compared to some forums, football related or otherwise. The posters here are of generally very high quality and most think before they post. Even if I don’t agree with a post someone has made I can always tell it’s ultimately coming from the same place that I do when talking about the team.
At times I feel like the team’s management might not care about me and how I feel about what they do, but the folks here get it. It’s not just a couple of hours on a Sunday afternoon to me. I can’t remember a time when it didn’t feel like more. It’s ok to feel this way right? See, you just nodded your head. You get it.
