META: Posters and user-generated features that you want to see again
Nice to have THE_KNOWLEDGE at the top of the diary section again, even if I've never been that taken with the feature. Reminds me, though: there are some other features and writers that have ghosted or at least seriously reduced their presence here. The user-generated stuff is one of the great features of MGoblog, and I hope to see more of it continue to prosper.
Two things I miss seeing this year: Alum96, who was/is a great poster and whose recruiting posts were essential reading...
And the long lamented BlueSeoul (now SFBayAreaBlue) Game Wraps with Pics.
I will remember them by making a stick football player with punctuation over his head for purposes of nostalgia.

What users/features do you miss?

I'm not going to grumble about free stuff, but I did enjoy when UFRs and UVs would come out right around lunch so I could read em on my lunch break. Seems like they're more like 2 or 3 now

Always seemed to have level headed takes in threads.

Best thing about him IMO is that he'd get very worked up over a particular point and then just filet whoever he was debating with logic and reason.
I miss him.

Indeed - I still remember when he got the 'cease and desist' letter from Michigan after posting the 'lifelike' Denard figurine wallpaper.

Maybe it's me, but I haven't seen much from The Blockhams, either. Didn't Six Zero write those?

It's true. You spend more time with people on here than you do with some of your friends and family. You get to know them in a sense.
But unlike the real world, you never actually know what becomes of people that stop posting.
So MGoBloggers, if you die, at least have the decency to let us know ahead of time.

Check out izuded.com...you could probably set it up to make a post here!

I have many fond memories from this board. I know that some former users lurk more, and post less. Some were kicked out, some just left. I miss Brian commenting more in the threads. CRex was always fun. Some of the best stuff came from guys who are now in the business . . . Tom VH, Steve Lorenz, Sullivan, et. al.

Until Brian learns to hate the 1990s retro website look these threads are pointless. Wish to god he would break down and hire a third party forum service...hell I think many of us would pay for certain perks and probably make it revenue positive for him

Form != function. I think this is among the most usable of websites I visit.
Sure it's far from the most elegant, but it works well and loads quickly.

He seemed like a real bright fella and all around good guy.

Mgoshoe was a quality poster. He's still active on Twitter, but I think he got caught up in the rocks and shoals of the coach search.
