Jet Fan RI Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I like GGs articles but cannot stand the comment section. I was at JI for a very very short time (weeks). Then I found this spot. The posters are good, as are the articles/columns/what have you... Some personal rifts I have no idea about and either laugh or ignore. Aside from Twitter and a few GG articles here and there this is my go to site. Its the first page suggestion on Chrome for me too. Have you tried NYJetsFanatics?

DaBallhawk Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 And don't forget all the spam from 3rd party organizations who Scout sold your email address to. I was flooded with them within 2 weeks of having been hoodwinked into signing up. The spam doesn't have to say Scout on it to still have originated from an action taken by Scout. Hoping that ****er gets what he deserves soon. What a scumbag of a human being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neckdemon Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Have you tried NYJetsFanatics? is that place new? I just went to the site realk quick. I'd never heard of it, but judging by the small number of threads and posts I'm assuming its newish. I also noticed green jets and ham posts there. that must be fun, maybe EY should join up, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most here are friendly too. But there are so many users here it's easy to feel lost in the crowd. Over there, with only 200-300 members it's easier for any given post to get noticed., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joebabyny Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Same here. I even unsubscribed from their newsletter bullsh*t but I keep getting mails from those spamming Scout turds. I have deduced that the scout people are re uploading their email database, resubmitting those that have opted out. If you use a legit mail list service like mailchimp they won't re-add people who have opted out, but scouts email marketing is so large they probably run theirs in house and can just keep re-adding, which is illegal under spam laws. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sourceworx Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I received some spam emails from them about JI. It's funny how Sean didn't want me on his site, but the motherf*cker had no problem selling my email address. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Scoutcancer just destroyed another place (Raiders Messageboard): I always said I wanted to open up Red Lobster's next to existing Red Lobster's because they were always so crowded. Now I think staring message boards for the topics that Scout buys message boards on could be a good idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the head of marketing left so that is a very real possibility. They do run things in-house. You are right when you use a 3rd party service like mail chimp, they are always checking you for quality assurance. When you run it on your own like scout, all bets are off. So glad I didn't sign that damn NDA, I like talking about this stuff haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not doubting you I'm just wondering whether you had any leverage or whether their legal was super sloppy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately there isn't really anything one can do even though it's illegal. Unless I guess we all complain somewhere about it. But nobody bothers so scumbags like Sooth/Scout will always get away with these types of actions. They just figure people are too lazy to do something about it.

Cornfed Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Just read that post on scout. Why does he call it a JI sale? Board suckiness aside, it's confusing from a brand PoV. I type jetsinsider, am taken to scout, then see a sale for JI I kept thinking there must have been a punch line or next step we weren't seeing with that move. Guess not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If yours are met with ambivalence, treat is like when a great white shark nudges your leg and swims off to find an injured sea lion. Thanks for the kind words. But I think the problem here is that the board can be so active at times that several posts are added to a thread very shortly after I make a post. So only folks who are actually active in that thread at the moment a post is made often are the only ones to see it. If several pages are added to a thread after the post lots of folks who may have found it worthy of reply may not even see it, not being interested enough in the thread to read through all the pages. So what I am saying is the board can be so active at times that posts can get lost in all the activity. So there is something to be said for a smaller board like NYJF.

Panzer Division Marduk Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 If that was my site I would create like 400 fake accounts and post in that forum with them.
