    This has been my main Dolphins news and forum for the last few years. However the last few Months and even now during the season these forms are pretty much dead it’s odd because I’ve visited a few other forms which happens much more content and discussion going on I’m not sure what happened or if it’s just the community as a whole here has become toxic and everyone is moved on or no one cares to post any more outside of three people

    Arguing on message boards to anonymous people gets tiring after a while.

    You have no idea how much our beloved site thephins.com is going to explode with traffic in the next few months counting into next year. By next season it will be US and then everybody else in the WORLD DOMINANCE of Miami Dolphins Message Boarding. There has been an intricate plan in place for several years now to take down that loser Communist Website, very intricate, very complicated, a couple of mistakes were made, but let there be NO DOUBT, that there are at least 2 (I believe 3, personally) High Ranking People @thatloserdolphinsmessageboard, that are ready, in place now, that are preparing to bring the website down from WITHIN, and destroy it, altogether, forever. We WILL be #1 next season. There will be no competition. You're Welcome @thephins.com. I love ya.

    It's a symptom of the disease afflicting our country. We can't have a civilized conversation anymore. The 80% of the people who agree on most issues are drowned out by shouting and name calling and the total lack of respect for ANYONE that the 10% of the far left and the 10% of the far right spew. It starts at home, but even in elementary schools now, kids are more interested in breaking each other down than building each other up. Conflict should be the last resort, not standard operating procedure.

    my honest answer is that this site isn't for everyone, I actually think the quality of the members has a way of weeding out a part of the masses that will resurface somewhere else..

    I think this is an elevated dolphins discussion forum and I think the mods set expectations according to that..

    build slowly with the right people..

    I go to all the other sites and visit, all the other teams forum, there is nothing better from a functional, visual, and IQ level than this site.

    Imo Its the best and thats not me blowing smoke up their azzez..

    I Love the club, but also love the mains..I like the different personalities even though some don't seem to want to accept our differences and understand we all have our own personal way of cheering and dealing with wins and losses..

    I don't care how negative someone is, or if they look at the team with rose colored glasses or a glass half empty, as long as I can tell that they are here for the right reasons and that all they want is the dolphins to win..I can accept them and understand their frustration.

    I think social media is ruining the nation and the world. It is so easy to post insults and the other party not know who you are or where you are. And on top of that, the moderators of the sites are just too busy to patrol everyone. If posts told you who really said things, world would be a lot different. That "bravery" from saying what you want to say has carried over to our human interaction too.

    I can't remember what happened, did you disappear for while or something? I think I remember some folks talking about that Cash guy?

    do you have a controversial take on something?

    Also when you have week after week 5 threads about Jay sucks. Then he gets hurts. Then its Gase sucks and should be fired. And 5 more topics on the same thing. It gets old. And the insults. And the back and forth about off topic crap in the topic.

    Thanks for all the input and responses. What exactly happens in the club? (And the first one to tell me what happens in the club stays in the club) I’m going to hunt you down and force you to wear a JETS jersey during the Miami Gay Parade!

    Is there more constructive conversations more updated news? The public forums tends to irk the **** out of me. I even posted some negative knee jerk stuff but have refrained from most of that.

    I just sometimes feel the players and coaches don’t care about the games like we do. 24/7 reading news articles looking for information on players improve g and than they lay an egg and say oh well next week! My inner Bill Cowher comes out and I want to rip someone’s head off!

    Anyway I’ve been here a while and will stay just wondering what had been happening.

    All I'm going to say is, if you hear banjo music...PADDLE FASTER!!!







    But seriously

    I've been a club member and there are some privileges. Too broke right now to be one again.

    But I made a conscious decision to spend my time in the main forums in order to do my own small part to encourage and participate in and support more meaningful conversation here. But I like hanging out in shady dock side bars too so...

    Care to join me? Just tell the wench you want to open your own beers.

    To my knowledge the number of posts really havent changed. It could be some were affected by storms or just general apathy right now with the team not having won a playoff game in 16 years. :/
