What an interesting thread. People should be happy there will be another place for the room. It does look like those sites have far too many irritating popups and I wonder if they can be tamed. People can be skeptical and use AI to express that skepticism in exaggerated ways. I don't see what the problem is. The same guy (I think) advocated moving to a private Reddit room so I'm not sure how serious they are. I'm skeptical about there being adequate content for a magazine, and I'm not entirely sure this room is actually grow-able. Who wants to hang out with grumpy old farts doing stupid **** allatime? I didn't bail because Batmags got whacked; I left because there was a guy who called for his execution three posts into his cpf career and it didn't even get remarked upon, and that reminded me there's plenty of ways to make negative contributions to the room-- everyone does it, and most people get away with it. I felt like I couldn't be a part that any longer. Besides all that with the 2025 Mets, I just had nothing to contribute to the discussion.
