Blonde Stats Page

[BorntoBubble]

Yes I started a thread that made longer then 3 pages without 90% of them being mine!

This is the best 'dying' thread imo

http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?topic=59582.0

Anyway, we could all present a series of sophisms to support our particular perspective.

Today, I probably think that social media has sucked up most of the generalist stuff. Forums like this probably/inevitably ? end up trading in the more specific interest stuff like the punting thread

Not bad as everyone says, just different

Ha, well done.

If more people started threads, we would not have a problem. it's that simple, imo.

Some quotes from that first page

"Been dead for 12 months"

"Not much happening"

"And missing member X "

So basically the same as this thread but from over 2 years ago

But it is far worse (less posts) tha it was then, to be fair, so the elderly gent was correct.

I have no real interest in TFT. I go through stages of reading it, but haven't read for a long time now. I do think nlonde would be worse off without it tho.

lol, plenty of life in Blonde yet I hope - definitely remains an interesting enough community to spend some time reading here each day

In fairness the return of the Camel was a big turning point for me, I think Blonde has been particularly good for the last 6-12 months

Excellent post.

Blonde  bashes used to be great for promoting forum growth. . They enabled us to spend time getting to know the people behind the username, which in turn resulted in more forum interaction.

[Ironside]

alot of the members from back in the day moved on to forums like sky and apat and even facebook

when flushy kept blonde alive by buying the majority shareholding he encouraged more pro players onto the forum who in turn encouraged more pros

but they have no drifted to skype in the main, with no updates there doesn seem to be anything to draw new blood to the forum PHA has been superseeded by the educational sites

there is very little community spirit anymore sunday threads are no longer made when was the last time people went out and railed someone for chits and giggles (we have all grown up in a way) i remember when we would rail the nun is a 5$ comp FT i event got a rail in a PLHE comp with a couple of k prize pool and the rail was so good that my oppo HU offered me more in a deal than first place prize money.

blonde is a different animal nowadays alot of the posters are more into the punting on sports than the poker and those that do play poker do it quietly

the last couple of meet up have been TfT meet ups with no poker involved
gone are the days when we could fill any card room in the UK for a £30 game most of the active members on blonde wouldnt leave there local casino for a comp without a £10k GTD


since the loss of the updates blonde need to find a new place in the market place we are so lucky we have a forum in first place it doesnt make money for the owners and if they didnt keep putting hands in there pockets we would have no forum

its not helped by the constant bickering on certain threads i have been here 10 years nearly now and for a large part of those 10 years i was proud to talk to people about the blondepoker forum when i at a card game or even wear a blondepoker badge on my shirt, i dont even have any badges now and cant remember last time i spoke of blondepoker to anyone as i am often ashamed of my part as a mod/admin in its decline

And what is the link between Bluff magazine and Blondepoker?






































I think we've found our culprit for the death of poker.
