I know we did over 3,000 posts that day. Yesterdays final tally was actually over 4,600 posts. Yea Max because he actually signed late that night and we went nuts for days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuscanyTile2 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Do you have stats about the slowest day in JetNation history? Or maybe the slowest day each of the past 5 years? (as I'm guessing the slowest day ever was probably when the site was new and probably didn't have a lot of users). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuscanyTile2 Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I would imagine JetNation is probably the most popular Jets fan forum on Al Gore's interwebz. It would be interesting to list out every team's most popular fan forum though (certainly if one towers above the rest like JN does). On a side note, I'm grateful to the absolute morons who ran the forums at NJ.com into the ground. Without them, I wouldn't have ended up here.

kelticwizard Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Funny part about Jet Nation is that considering it's start, it shouldn't even be here. Most message boards that are formed by disgruntled posters who got kicked off the original board fail. That's because usually the people who run the new board quickly show why the old board kicked 'em off in the first place. Here, the disgruntleds put together a board that is still going strong when the original board failed. What do we call that-JetNation Exceptionalism?

Luckily, we did the right thing when we started to not let what you described ruin us. @T0mShane was really smart and guided things in a very good direction. He recommended the site name and we were able to take a fresh start. Seriously can not thank Tom enough, the guy is next level smart. The other big factor is that we were made the enemy by sooth and ji. We always spoke nicely of that site, and all the posters there. Our problem was always with sooth. He should have embraced us, we would have had a much harder time. Instead he provided a lot of hate and drama and it fueled us that first year. We were like a little honey badger site. Small but feisty. Now there is no stopping us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bombdirt Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Out of curiosity, is there an easy way to compile the 10 or so busiest days ever? I know I did over 1,000 posts just by myself back on December 11 when the 100k thread hit its goal. I would be interested to know what the total for that day was. That said, for the sake of context, we were 5-8 at that point and coming off the shutout in Denver so there probably wasn't much else going on besides the usual doom-and-gloom and "where we gonna draft" posts which follow a later-season loss.
