Popular Post Reg Posted March 7 Popular Post Share Posted March 7 CCF membership has now reached 1,500 with more than 300 thousand posts and counting. Thought this may be a good time to pause for a moment to recognize this accomplishment. Think we can all agree to say thanks to the people who organized and launched this web-site some months ago. Canuck fans wherever they are located in the world now have safe place to engage with each other about their shared interest in our team and the sport-business of professional hockey. So I think we all owe a big thank you to those who have made this happen. Go Canucks Go! 20 3 8 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spook007 Posted March 7 Popular Post Share Posted March 7 Yeah a massive thanks to you all especially all the boys and girls putting in the effort to keep this going.

You mean, you weren’t excited about the possibility of going to HF Canucks to argue with the “I know everything” 25-30 year old kids there? (Because clearly - you understand everything about hockey if you understand WAR and advanced analytics). Or the echo chamber consisting of grumpy old 55-70 year old incels known as Canuckscorner? You weren’t excited at the idea of joining? Come on now. Edited March 8 by Jeremy Hronek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SerenityNow Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I also wanted to say thank you. I was very impressed with how quickly the new forum was up and running immediately after the shutdown of the old one. Nearly seamless from a user point of view. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they didn't like the comments there you would think they'd at least try to monetize the traffic they got. CDC had to have been one of the largest forums in BC. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Optimist Prime Posted March 11 Popular Post Share Posted March 11 I am thrilled with how well this is going, all thanks to @Ribs and the aforementioned canucks media incompetence. I also wanted to echo back to everyone: thank YOU for coming and posting your thoughts, our dialogues are literally the content we all come here for, to put it another way; you all are the reason I am here, and I think we can all say that. A great community, thank you for being part of my days. P.O> 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kilgore Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Yes, a big thanks to Ribs, and the mods too. Quite remarkable that we really didn't miss a beat. Same software I gather. Smooth transition. Canucks.com were idiots to shut down the board right on the cusp of contender status in the league. All that hand wringing and "negative" content about management was all very understandable back at CDC given the teams perpetual choke jobs in the last decade. If that was their reason to shut it down. Now they'd find all kinds of positivity and praise for management....at least mostly. Would be great to hear the inside story Ribs. How it all went down. Were the Canucks in conversation with you? Where they cooperative and accommodating? Did they help in any way? Or were they mostly just silent and ignoring you and the CDC members. And it was all up to you and a few others? If the way they've let the old site just turn into a ghost town joke and just let it keep going, implies they never did give a shit about it or the fans using it. And can't even be bothered to shut off the lights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, I don't really visit www.canucks.com site that much anymore. The odd time to buy a 50/50 ticket and look up some player stats, but go-to-knowledge banks I have: 1) my wife ... don't need Google with her around to impart knowledge on just about any subject at any time of the day 2) CFF for Canucks related postings, opinions and general laughs Many companies pay good money to devise strategies on how to attract website traffic so Aquaman definitely sat on his balls when CDC was allowed to wither on the vine and die (a few last gasps). I wonder what the general thought process was behind that move and what the plan is going forward. I can't believe that there aren't competent people in the Canucks Marketing department that can't see the value of the traffic CDC was bringing to the Canucks site.

Reznor Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Agree 100%. After so many years of CDC, it was literally upsetting to see it go down... like it was the end of an era. (Like it or not) This new forum is a bit more relaxed with the rules which I also enjoy. But bottom line: Thank you SO much. True Canucks fans need a place to have discussions. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
