Do we need to pass around the hat?!?!?

If this place closes I will have to go into rehab.

I will never resort to that sewer. I am just recently on Reddit and that is bad enough.

I can only take Plebbit in small doses, mods and forced politics have ruined that hole.......have a different opinion than this subreddit= you're banned bud 

Hive mind at the finest, totally not for me.....

I thought Tepper bought this place and shut it down after the board went nuclear on his pet Dumb ass Dave Canalas yesterday.

It's a more palatable format than Twatter(an absolute sewer from day 1) or Facebook(an absolute sewer for the past 10+ years) but it's heavily groupthink. 

If you swim counter to the stream too often some power hungry mod on Panthers will squash you.

The only other option would realistically be reddit but that's a steep downgrade. It baffles me people still complain especially considering how loose the moderation here is overall as long as you aren't human garbage. Just be glad it's still going. If it came down to it I assume Jeremy would pass the torch to a worthy individual.

It is ironic though this happened after that horrific loss to a franchise so closely tied to ours over the years.

This team really needs to show up against the Packers. After 7 years of this the fanbase is nearly toast. Dave Canales needs to get his head out of his ass or be shown the door.

Does anyone know(mods I assume) why he wouldn't consider just selling to one of us?

Basically he's said that he built this place and thinks back fondly on that and hopes that maybe he'll be reinvigorated if the Panthers ever find a way to overcome Tepper and field a winning team. He's not unwilling to sell, he just admits it would take a number substantially bigger than anyone should rightly consider to get him to sign the papers.

@TheBigKat offered not to long ago and got shot down by Zod. I think he'd rather let this place die a slow death than sale it.  As much as the Huddle is a shell of it's former glory, it is still his 'baby' and he probably can't stand the thought of someone else having it.

Well, I think that s what people are alluding to...that they don't know how strong it is or how long that it will keep going in light of some of the technical issues. No one in this thread wants it to go away.

I prefer the compartmentalized experience with a community dedicated to one subject. In our case our football team. Such as it is these last few years.
These all in one platforms lack the community feel that you get here as people have been interacting for better or worse for a period of years  

Glad it did t die

Yeah, I am not trying to pay an exorbitant fee but I would rather it exist than not exist. I suppose if that becomes a solution in the future, I would have interest. 

Provided it isn't something absurd like $12+k/yr or something egregious. I don't care about losing money(I would immediately nuke all the ads anyway) but I don't want to blow an unreasonable sum of money I could use to pursue other ventures.
