So wedgie may be on the right track… someone messing around with the site.

I have thought that Ek has absolutely minimal involvement for years now. I think he steps in periodically to keep the illusion alive, but he has treated it as pretty much passive income for a while now.

The outtage a couple months now was also suspicious since literally nothing was changed. Did someone fail to pay the bills?

As I said I have it a week and no one cares so neither do I. I’m not hurt, just wanted to know lol.

At this point I’m just going to sit back and watch the site go down, I’m betting it will be quick.

[Dozzer]

My best guess is it is a disgruntled (unpaid) employee trying to kill the site – best way to do that is to kill the Leafs’ thread.

But nobody knows.
~Atomic Wedgie

Not just the leafs thread, happening all over the site from what I’m hearing. I’m getting messages from Canucks boards, habs boards, the latest was one from Nasty_Duck the Bruins fan… it’s absurd

[Dozzer]

I wouldn’t sweat it on posting over there. Ek doesn’t respond to anything and there’s plenty of evidence of him not paying bloggers/not responding/having no money left. It’s likely why Metz and Augello left without some sort of delay.

Honestly? It took a long time but when a place starts being overrun by troll types and stuff like political talk it slowly degrades the place and more average people refuse to go back. There’s places like this, reddit, FB or a billion other social media platforms people can go and not be bombarded by ads or non-hockey talk. We can definitely build up this place to better than that.

Also, we can respect others views but I think some people have to cut it out on troll attempts on their own fan base and others have to not buy into it and respond.

I have a minor curiosity about that site atm.

I locked Ek’s thread after two posts yesterday to make a point about him not responding about these random bans.

It’s playoff time.

He hasn’t replaced it.

[Dozzer]

Did they lift the bans? (or were your referring to mine ending on May 8).

Yeah the Panthers are a better team than what they showed the first 2 periods.
~Aetherial

Like I said no lifts that I know about but after a week of trying I’m done caring.

As for good ol’ hockey? I just want Nylander to start the game off the exact same way again lol 😉

[Dozzer]

Tough to imagine a more difficult situation for a goalie to come into a game. Then the team hangs him out to dry when the 3rd period started.
~Aetheriel

well I’ll also face the truth, Florida came out in the third a hell of a lot different. Glad they did tho, now the leafs truly know who they’re facing. They got the wake up call while leading thankfully.

As for your ban, congrats on it getting lifted, enjoy going back to the minefield lol

[Dozzer]

👍
Dziękuję bardzo!
~Alex.TML

not a problem! 👍

[Dozzer]

When Woll dialed in he can be very effective.
I think the best version of Woll is the better than best version of Stolarz, but his problem is consistency and stay healthy.
Sorry for my Russian version of English, but you should get used to it already.
~alex.TML

oh don’t worry about that accent, like I said I’m the guy who grew up with the polish papa and great grandparents, if anything I’ve been taught to appreciate one since that tells me you’ve seen the world differently than I have so that means that there’s nothing more than something to learn 👍

As for the goalies I believe you have it right, Woll just needs the confidence, and I think since he was able to fight his way through the hell that was the last game for himself he’ll be better for game 2, it would have built confidence. I just hope the leafs pummel the shit out of anyone who tries to go in tight to him. Want to play that kind of game Florida? Fine, get ready to lose your teeth.

[Dozzer]

Hey Dozzer – no hard feelings man. Good to see you here.
~PDO Speedwagon

Hey man, how’s things? They’re decent with me, love being some place where I have no authority lol… so when it comes to your previous post… *shrugs with a questionable face*

[Dozzer]

Leafs are lucky they have 1 win already Alex to afford Stoly the extra rest. To be fair here, up until the last few weeks of the season everyone had been questioning who would be the starter. Woll is quite capable so as a fan I have no issues.
~Aaron

I think people got a little worked up over Woll last night, that poor guy must of gone into that game feeling tense as hell and still played pretty damn good and had some key saves. He’ll be far more ready for game 2 and look way better is my guess.

[Dozzer]

Oh, I had no intention of paying Ek a bloody penny, it just seemed very weird the way things were worded on the screen that pops up when I tried to post. Good to finally have my release date in writing, with any luck I won’t have to go back to HB if we get this popping off. Almost 20 years of seniority just gone, lol.

We really need emojis here, though. And a better reply function.
~WHIPPER

oh the bans over there are insulting, I’ve been modding over there for free forever and I can’t even get an explanation. Then I heard about this site and even tho I know it’s still working out it’s tweaks I believe it will come along and it was always Mike that I liked on HB anyways.

Oh FYI, for a stronger looking quote in your posts hit the ”B-QUOTE” tab, paste the copy, then hit the tab again. It’s what sets things aside better atm 👍

[Dozzer]

Seems like I could just pay for a season pass to get posting privileges back, though. Money grab?!?

I did post a snarky response to one of Ek’s blogs about Wedgies ban, and Ek responded saying bans weren’t his department… and then I was subsequently banned and both my and his posts disappeared, lol.
~WHIPPER

careful man, it’s showing you were banned for one month on May 1st so I wouldn’t be handing that site any $

[Dozzer]

You’re banned if you can’t post. You never get any notice telling you that you’re banned unless a mod tells you on the way out.

😉, Dozzer.

😂
~fifty mission cap

hell you know me, sometimes I’d just ban a guy, hit reply, and just call him an asshole lol 😉

I’m so free over here!! 😂

[Dozzer]

Manually, I’m afraid.

I cut and pasted your quote, added your name at the bottom, highlighted all of it, then clicked the “b-quote” button.
~Atomic Wedgie

willing to bet they can come around on this, it’s an early site and that can’t be something too massive to overcome. I mean it took me a couple seconds to do it on my iPhone

I’m doing it a tad different tho, I hit the b quote button, copy and paste the quote, add your name, and hit the b quote again. Saved that second highlighting, nothing huge I know but sometimes highlighting can lead to a headache lol

You get a ban too? Must be a ref of another team going around and banning leaf fans for the fun of it. Sour grapes most likely. It seems to only happen when the leaf fan steps out of the leaf blog.
~Aaron

This how to do the replies? Hope so or this will look dumb, wel, dumber than I usually look lol

[Dozzer]

Hey Wedgie, how are you doing that kind of reply to others? If you pass it on to me I’ll happily help pass it on to others as well. Cheers.
