Golden era of Sherdog?

[FrankieNYC]

It’s fun to troll a bit, but really I appreciate the well thought out posting the most.

I just don't get those that wake up & can't wait to be an anon dick on the internet.

But the past is the past.

During the era of the dominant p4p champs. Because even the divisions that didn't have them still had depth that made them fun. Threads on here got viscious in a good way.

Penn, GSP, and Silva. LHW had the Rashad/ Machida/ Shogun dynamic going. HW had the Lesnar/ Carwin/ Mir dynamic going, with Cain and JDS in the background.

Conversations were generally more fun. Fans were more informed around here. More fans wrote their own analysis consistently, and it was a lot more detailed.

Kimble is not around. Though realistically she probably just uses a dofferent handle now. I think it was a bit after the positive balance ban lol

People discuss about UFC's & Pride's golden era, but what is the equivalent in our forum?

Sherdog was used to be garbage. The mods were absolutely ridiculous and they would ban people on a whim. Saying guy disliked BJ Penn was a banishable offense. Pointing out an error or disagreeing a blackbelt was a banishable offense, I've even saw babe for "posting too much"...not shitposting or trolling...just posting too often as a white belt. It was laughably shitty forum.

I'm not sure exactly when the change occurred because I had written the site off for a long long time. Something brought me back and I was pleasantly surprised with the way things are now.

When was the golden age of SD?

You're living in it pal
