UTSA info sites
I now stay away from rowdyville.net. The admin there deleted a post of mine because he didn't like it. It was a one sentence post which was innocuous, pertinent, without questionable language, and in no way should have been censored.
I hate censorship. Especially the, "I didn't like your post so I deleted it" kind of censorship.
The other sites are great with known rules and you have the freedom of your opinions being allowed in their respective public squares.

When I first signed up I noticed a lot of bad mouthing of other sites. I didn't like that so that's one reason why I don't go there often.
Today was probably the first time I visited it in about 6 months. Hopefully it has changed.

UTSA info sites
Paratrooper, the site utsatailgaters.com now goes by the name InsideRunnerSports.com. Both addresses get you to the same site. I'm guessing next spring the old domain will go away (or whenever it expires).
I'm glad they made the name change. And "IRS" is easier to type when referring to them.

RE: UTSA info sites
I second that emotion, slow-runner. I read rowdyville forum for a few months before I decided to sign up. The very first day I did, our baseball coach stepped down(ie got fired) and I stated that we weren't going far with him. Which, seems like factual info, not just my opinion. My post got deleted and the site owner sent me a message saying that it's his board and if I don't like the censorship then get out. Anyways, i stick with IRS, Coker chronicles, Dan Mcarney and this site. I read rowdytalk from time to time.
There was a thread a few weeks ago addressing this same issue. I'm lazy.
This site is great. There are a lot of haters on the main CUSA board, just gotta deal with them. But this is our space and MarineVet does censor the UTSA haters if they post here. Which, is very appropriate given that each school has their own forum. Plus, I like CUSA and I cheer for all CUSA teams unless they play us. Lots of good info here. We just gotta get more regular posters on this particular UTSA subforum.

Thanks. I knew that but didn't check the link when I pasted it. It's corrected now.
Run 'Em!

RE: UTSA info sites
I browse the bobcatfans page from time to time. I don't post there, although sometimes I want to because they make several inflammatory remarks about us. But I think responding to them is just pointless. Like right now, they are saying that we will always be able to pack the dome with free tickets. We gave away a total of 1000 tickets for the season lol, I guess that means everyone gets in for free.

Did you see where they said that they were giving away their tickets at local HEBs but no one would take them? Lol

Yeah, I saw that. Notice how nobody mentioned much after that and someone actually was trying to deny it. Lol that is pathetic.

Yeah, I have pretty much ignored them when they are talking about the KFC deal..that got old pretty quick..if you let it bother you they'll just keep at it, but if you play along they shut up..they're just envious of our attendance numbers. Even if they fill up Bobcat Stadium it is nowhere near our record lol
Also, they did ignore the fact that they gave away tickets at HEB and no one wanted them. I found that hilarious! That's the real reason we have so much hate from some of these schools. It's because they could give away tickets and no one would want them. lol
The only bobcat I really like talking to is that REVSWT guy. He's the only reasonable fan on there.

I hit it up occasionally but you're right on REVSWT, he is a pretty funny guy. But what I like about him is that he pulls no punches when he's criticizing the bobcats, and he's normally spot on about why they'll never go much further than the SB.

RE: UTSA info sites
I'm new here. Used to prowl Rowdyville but the moderator is gestapo like and I just don't feel comfortable posting anything thinking I may get deleted. He did it to me before when I critiqued the baseball team. He must be a former ball player that apparently didn't like people to say negative thikngs about the team. Very childish. Anyway I'm out of there. It does appear that the site is having some technical problems right now. I don't post alot but I enjoy the banter.

LMAO, I also quit rowdyville for exactly the same reason. I (fairly) critiqued our baseball team and he kept deleting my posts. I then asked if Rowdyville = Gestapo censorship and he deleted that too lol. Then he said that it's his board and to go find somewhere else.
I just don't get the whole sunshine pumping thing. Afterall, isn't a message board a place for diehards to celebrate and vent our frustrations? I'd understand if the rule at rowdyville was to moderately and respectfully critique, but the immature kid that runs it wants absolutely no negative comments at all!
Ive said enough about that board and I'll say itagain too, he can keep it.
Anyways, welcome aboard. This site is great and so is IRS, although the boards have been slow over there.
