OT: HFNYR OT Thread: Now Able to Ignore Threads Again

[The Crypto Guy]

Are you just upset that you couldn't post outlandish things over there without being called out?

Nope, but i definitely lost a few brain cells reading from the liberal cesspool on the 2 occassions I went over.

Going to be a lot of unhappy posters now they their safe zone is gone.

Join it. I've been trying to send out PMs to those who I remember who enjoyed the discussion.

I am holding off mostly because I am addicted to too many message boards (read: HFBoards) as is. The conversation on HFPoli was pretty good, though I thought the verbal abuse (whether warranted or not) was over the top and detracted from the experience. I know it's difficult to moderate a political message board but flaming and baiting are easy things to eliminate.

Rofl. Someone doesn’t get how the internet works. Sorry that your bad opinions didn’t get you anywhere, my dude.

I think it self-policed really well. You had some legitimately fantastic discussions with heated sides that ended in a mutual bit of respect. It’s a shame to lose.

Move on, coordinate with each other through PM about the new politics forum.

On the true off topic, NJ Transit is f***ing unusable lately.

Does anyone know if the Rangers will fly to Chicago immediately after the game tomorrow, or on Wednesday morning?

If you live in the States, vote! It's your right!

It really is amazing how poorly voting is set up in NY. It's intentional, and it's not one party behind it (despite what morons will say on FB). So so bad.

@Mods

Have the minds of HF ever thought of implementing some type of live chat/DMs built into the site?

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Something is up with the boards today.....posts are disappearing and i'm getting alerts multiple times but when i go to the thread that i just got notified for, that new post doesn't show up.

They couldn't even handle an unmoderated political board and now they'll have to deal with the HF horde in real time?

There was a chat room, back in the day!

I think it'd be something fun for game day and a lot easier to chat sometimes. Well, maybe I will make one for gamedays on a third party site then.

@nyr2k2 I am only 24. I think it was gone before my time here haha

 

[romba]

What’s with the HF fish logo that replaced the stick/puck?

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

HF is having more issues since the massive server-update than before. They should get their shit in order. This is ridiculosu

 

[nyr2k2]

What the f*** is wrong with the site, now? Shit keeps disappearing and reappearing on me.

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Dude I can't tell if admins are deleting comments or what

 

[Machinehead]

What just happened?

Yeah I only vaguely remember it. IIRC it was a totally different thing from HF, you didn't have to use your HF username. It was one of those embedded IRC clients, if I'm remembering right.

We recently lost our longtime ranking admin, and a friend to many. Her handle was "Fugu," like the puffer fish. Which is the reason for the logos, people having the fish as their av, in their sig, etc.

RIP Stan Lee.

I knew she had passed but did not know that was her handle, nice tribute and thanks for explaining.

Since like three people have posted on the HFFantasy forum in the last six years, I figured I would give it a shot here.

In my banger fantasy hockey league, I was offered OEL and Draisaitl for Stone and Larkin. I need to add a d-man, but I don't want to lose too much value just to do it (I could always just pick up a d-man on the waiver wire). Is the value there? I was high on Stone/Larkin before the draft (which is why I drafted them obviously), so I don't want to let my bias affect my judgement. Should I do it?

 

[Irishguy42]

Keeper league? If yes, then don't do it. If no, then it's tough, but I'd still probably keep Stone/Larkin.

Nah not a keeper. And yeah I think it's real tough... but thanks for the advice!
