| Same, I'm sorry to see it go... I check back every now and then too, the spam bots are having a good time chatting it up. For the longest time, I couldn't even log in. Even with a new username, I still couldn't get registered.... I'm heppy here though | |

| Yeah, I was being stubborn and hanging in over there until the bitter end. Thinking that maybe M would tighten up and get the place back to it's former glory. I watched as one, two, three, four days went by without a single post and I finally gave in. I love being over here though, mostly due to the fact that all of the same people are here. You guys are some of the best guys to enjoy this sport with. Pleh, gah, what's that taste in my mouth. It's mushy and sweet. FUCK YOU GUYS! | |

| In my best Brian from Half-Baked voice
I'm not gonna do..what everbody thinks I'm gonna do, and just FREAK OUT MAN!! All I wanna know is, is who's coming with me? Who's coming with me, man!?!?
But seriously, I love that site, and don't ever want to leave it...... but it seems to be dead, and I don't want to accept that fact, but it's inevitable.
UF.Ca.......I love you....but I have to let you go. You hve let me down time and time again recently, and I don't know how many more chances I can give to you.......
MMAStandard, you're sexy as hell, and you take care of me, but if UF.CA shows me her tits, I'll go back. But so far, MMAStandard gave me a lovely HJ, and that's worth sticking around for, as long UF.CA doens't let me........ OK, this is getting out of hand, but you get the point.

| i didn't want to but i've deleted my UF-ca from my favourites. it's been a part of my life since 2007 but it's time to move on. i share the sentiment of it not being the same great site that it once was. there is a lot on memories and histories within those thousands threads that i hate to see it die. but it is what it is. thank god for the invitation to this site otherwise i wouldn't have bothered looking for another forum to join. god imagine a Sunday morning free of MMA chats? so cheers to BKN for bring me in and all the other boys for welcoming me back. | |

| I actually hope it doesn't totally shut down, becasue like Kingpin said, there's a history of lots of great threads there, and I would like to be able search through them to find something specific if I wnated. Kind of like an archive of sorts. | |

| I still drop in, it's kinda like my daily routine like it's been for the last 5yrs, but I haven't posted in a couple weeks. It's just dead. Yeah it's sad because there's so much history over there but I think we all saw this day coming. I remember thinking when this place first fired up, then M did his big revamp the next day, that it would only be a month or so until he disappeared again and people would start coming this way. It sucks that guys like Fist and Nick are going to go down with the ship. But it's up to them at the end of the day, IMO this place will still be an extension of that one with or without them. | |

| It was sad when the Titanic went down .... but at the end of the day the good that came out of it was bigger better safer ships....
It was sad when Apollo 1 burned on the launchpad but the positive result was safer launch systems and improved life support including the removal of the 100% oxygen atmosphere.....
It was sad when Custer rode into the Little Big Horn Valley but the positive that came out of it was that.... uh... we now know we should have taken the Gattling guns into the valley.... uh
Uh .... It was sad when the United Nations refused to support Canadian Peace Keepers in Rawanda and .... uh it ... no that resulted in thousands of deaths... uh maybe it wasnt like that at all....
Uh ... I forgot what I was talking about... But I like this site too. | |

| Yeah, that's what I thought (sort of).
It was a little slow after the overhaul anyway, but like I said before, all of the sudden I couldn't even post at all. And abviously nobody else could, either. There seems to be a few people who still can post because of what browser they have or something, but it's gotta suck just talking to one or two people all day about how quiet it is.
Ah well, it sounds like everyone pretty much shares the same sentiment; if the site is active, we're still gonna visit. It shouldn't have to be all or nothing.

| Just left the site myself, couldn't figure out why the hell no one was posting anything. Figured out that I couldn't post myself with IE8, I switched to Chrome and I was able to post. I had no idea about this site until Butterknifeninja & Drifter sent me PMs about it.... for the longest time I had no idea that I even had a PM, old site was awful for that.... I will miss thee UF.ca but I'm digging this site more since it's more active.
BTW how the hell do some of you guys have so much money already... I'm falling behind. | |

| What happend to lightningshock? Wasn't he here? Also, The Diplomat dissapeared awhile ago after bitching about the site dying for the last 3 years. Where's he been? Actually, I don't really care where he is now that I think about it..... | |

| Ok, I'll be that guy. As much as I love that site, it's over. M doesn't have enough interest to keep it going. It's been how long since the update? And still no Top 10 forum or betting? It's not a simple issue of him not knowing about some random posting issues. I PM'd him not too long ago about a couple things and the answer I got was vague at best. I like Trig's analogy (I'm agreeing with him a lot lately, wtf is going on here???). The old chick was awesome and I'd still leave my current girl to bang her if she came around again. But she isn't coming back. Sure, she shows up drunk every once in a while but that won't last Berserk, post in the Introduce Yourself topic and you'll get $500 to bet with. Then follow the following process: Step 1. Bet Step 2. Win Step 3. Profit! | |

| UH-OH!!! Now you are officially "that guy" forever. I hope you're happy! And don't feel weird about agreeing with me lately. It's just because I'm right a lot lately. But yeah; I think you're more or less right about the situation. I've heard a few people say that they tried to contact M, but didn't really hear anything back. And really, ever since the update/overhaul thing, there has been practically nothing happening in terms of corrections. But here's the thing; Yeah, maybe it's fucked over there, and yeah you guys got a good site up and running over here, but I just don't think it's absolutely necessary to outright declare termination of membership from one site to be a productive member of another site. You guys put together a great site over here. I don't think people are gonna ignore that....regardless of what happens "over there". | |

| Yea, the one thing I'm not trying to do is to get people to pick sides. I still hit up UF.ca every day to see if there is anything new there - it's not animosity that made drifter create this site, it was just disappointment that nothing is being done over there. The whole idea was to get the same people over here so we can have the same good discussions, just with betting and Top 10s.
If that site gets up and running then I'm sure most people will go back. I'm cool with that, shit I started there in 2007, so I have a lot of history there too. I was just referring to the fact that things won't get back to the way they were back in the day (IMO of course).
Fuck, I just realized that I agreed with you again. Ok, here we go: Nick Diaz is a horribly overrated fighter who deserved to have the Gomi win taken away from him because he was doing drugs. There! Agree with that motherfucker!! | |
