my main challenge is to rev up the rail

we do lack breadth of poker content. a few more meaty debates on there (the re-entry one is a good one, HUDs was another) would do wonders

i'm not too well placed to do it though, not an online grinder, not on the live scene as much etc etc

Basically we all gave up poker when it got hard and started punting instead

certainly some truth in that, but at the same time we lost some grinders/pros, for whom the forum probably became too recreational

this follows a period where we lost a lot of recreationals because the grinders made it too serious and in a few cases lacked inter-personal skills

so it goes in cycles. people come and go. mainly go, tbh lol

Tighty sums it up perfectly there imo

One thing that i have noticed is how quiet the forum is at night, certainly when compared to busier times. This is also probs due to the more serious players no longer posting.

there is a child board attached to the poker hand analysis section called "learning centre". i think this could be a very popular thread , the begginers section on 2plus2 really is excellent.

the most recent posts are almost 2 years old. nobody ever posts there. why?

i think that due to many of the posters on blonde being "name" players, or at least a good bit above average,people are worried about getting the piss taken out of them.

on the pha board ,most stuff goes way over my head, but i can appreciate what a great resource it can be for some people.however i have lost count of the times that somebody has gone to the trouble of writing a detailed post with hand history, asked for some advice, to be snap answered with "50p" or "tldr".

i have only posted on there once. to be fair i was helped out quickly by doobs and greeky plus couple others which i was very grateful for. on the flip side, after i posted i kept an eye on who was reading the thread and2  people who have popular blogs on here read the post for a while and couldnt be bothered to answer what was ,in hindsight, a pretty simple question that they could have helped with in no time at all. same people i have sent a pm to regarding something they have asked about in their blog, offering my help in a small way. again no answer.

i know that some people think they are charlie big spuds, but if you are gonna be arrogant,at least have something to be arrogant about. stick to being ignorant please, it suits you much more.

anyway mini rant over. i guess the only way to try to revive that particular board is to post on it. so look forward to some very basic poker questions coming soon.

be great if somebody helps, i cant be the only fish on here.

Think you summed it up pretty well. From recall, think a lot of people were getting grief from more established players, so stopped posting. Probs around the same time recs etc were getting grief in lots of posts, so most of us left.

Well there's a thong - there were around 500 posts & 6 new threads yesterday. That would equate, if monthised, to double last month's rate.

I saw you mention the Hendon Mob over on another thread so I wandered over for the first time in ages - wow, it is completely dead. Nothing happening at all - no one logged in, moribund boards.

We're Piccadilly Circus in comparison.

betfair poker forum is the same.  AWOP the same.  I think blonde is holding up pretty well in comparison to it's uk rivals tbh.

Maybe Blonde should have their own video service. Is this something you've looked in to?

That would be helpful for an audio service, but he said video...
