Thank You!

  Indeed. It should be more like "Thanks Max"

 

 JN will never be like JI because Max will never be Sooth.

 

 

He will never say it and probably doesn't believe it, but the best part of this site is Max. All the other stuff he mentions is also great but is icing. The man at the top sets the tone and this is the best site on the Net for that reason.

 

 

Exactly. The person at the top sets the tone. Max is awesome...other dude not so much.

 

JN survived and keeps moving ahead. JI is in memoriam...it did serve one purpose and that was to direct people to JN...

Thank you!  Really appreciate that.  Not used to getting complimented around here. All it took is for a neighboring village to be burned to the ground.  LOL!

Since Jet football officially ended tonight with embarrassing humiliation in Motown

And since the headrollings, reorganization and restructuring won't begin until at least tomorrow

I'd like to take the opportunity of this brief lull to thank Max and the mod gang for this great Jet message board and to wish you all and all the great posters here, new and old a Happy and safe Thanksgiving and a joyous and healthy holiday season

Thanks sg3.  Definitely is a lot to be thankful for, even though Jets football isn't on the list.

Just wanted to drop a quick post and say thank you to all the new posters that have been signing up here recently. We appreciate you checking the site out and we hope you decide to make this your Jets home. I posted this in a few other threads, but figured one post outlining everything probably deserves its own thread.

Why do I feel that JetNation.com is the best Jets site? Simply because the Jets fans that post here, along with the Jets fans that volunteer to run this site are dedicated, passionate and fair. We just ask that everyone be civil to each other, no personal attacks. We don't allow political talk and no nudity. Those are really the only rules.

How much does it cost to post here? Trick question, of course it is free. We appreciate everyone posting here so much, we run a lot of giveaways. This year we have given our posters a lot of prizes: autographed photos, signed footballs, Jets tickets and Jets merchandise. We have more contests coming up soon, so be on the look out. Just a small way for us to say thank you!

Will JetNation ever sell my email address to Scout.com? Yes. But we are just waiting for them to up their offer. :) Kidding. Truth be told, Scout.com did offer to buy JetNation or "partner with us". I (Phil) met with them in their NYC office right before the NFL Draft. They pitched their vision. At this point it doesn't matter, but I didn't agree with their vision. Two things really bothered me. They had a marketing team of over 30 people and they said they would handle our social media and they would do our mass email. The guy in charge of Marketing wasn't a football fan, he wasn't from the U.S. so that concerned me. If a message is being sent out to Jets fans, it should be written by a Jets fan. Call us old fashioned I guess.

My bigger concern was that their vision for the forums scared the hell out of me. It was a take it or leave it approach. Shut down your old forum. Use their forum software that was missing several pieces of functionality that I considered imperative. I was told that they could convert the forums but they don't because there is no reason to. At that moment I knew everything I needed to know. Forums like this are a community. There is no way I could ever tell everyone, thanks for posting here for 10 years. Now we are shutting this down, please sign up on this new site with less features. Oh and grab a premium membership along the way. Pass.

Not everyone hear knows me. But my wife was fighting cancer when I met with Scout. (She has since completed chemo and radiation and is cancer free!) But as I sat in the Scout conference room I thought about life. What did I want my life to be. And the thought of answering to someone else about anything JetNation related, or not being involved in JetNation at all, well it wasn't appealing.

Cool Story Bro, What Does That Actually Mean? It means you are stuck with me. Deal with it.

How about some appreciation for all the posters that have been here for years and years? Oh yeah, you guys. Um, thanks! Seriously you are doing a good job of being on your best behavior. Once we lure in all these new posters and they feel comfortable, you can go back to acting normal again. Until that time, put the toilet seat down and keep your feet off the coffee table. :)

Seriously, a big thank you to everyone who calls JetNation home. We will turn 10 years old after this season ends. And none of it would be possible without the dedication and passion of Jets fans. The site has grown every year and this seems to be continuing.

If you are new here and have any questions, comments or suggestions please post them here, start a thread in the feedback forum and send a private message to me or any of the moderators.

Thanks everyone and as always, Go Jets!

Wow you signed up originally in 2005, that is impressive.

 

Like we always say, we will leave a light on for you!  haha...glad you are back though.  Everyone who is coming over has been great. It is cool to see so many people signing up this month.

 

There will be plenty to talk about once this football season ends.  Unfortunately.

Your doing an outstanding job here and I'm happy to hear about your wife. :happy0071: 

 

I’m a Fin fan not a Jet fan. I like coming on here from time to time because many of you have the same great sense of humor my drunk uncle Jonny from Brooklyn had...I can still hear him screaming and throughing stuff , I learned a lot of great analogies and quality phrases that I still laugh at today.

Thanks for the warm welcome, Max!

Happy to be aboard and I am already enjoying the colorful collection of characters you have as posters.

NO fan base is more passionate than the Jet's fan base.

 

 

Thank you.  The Jets are certainly giving us plenty to talk about lol.

Love it here. I used to post at ganggreen.com but couldn't really speak out on anything without censorship. Seriously, even if I didn't cuss.

 

We don't censor a whole lot here. :)  We get yelled at it for it but as long as people aren't fighting, we think everyone deserves to be heard.

 

Thanks!
