Rjay Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 To increase the quality of posts in both subforums and to give you guys a home with many more posters, we would like you to vote on a possible merger. All of your opinions are important to us and we'd like to know what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svh19044 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Do you get to sort through the members from NY who voted in this poll? Just kidding... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjay Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 This thread is for Philly subforum members. Please do not vote if you are from the NYC subforum. Same goes for Philly posters voting in the NYC thread. If you have already voted and you're from other regions, please delete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Wiggum Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 No merger please. There may be fewer posts here but there is a heck of a lot less inter-subforum arguing as well. We are a small, tight-knit family here....I vote to keep it that way. Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a small, tight-knit family here....I vote to keep it that way. Sent from my LG-V410 Ralph those days are long gone and the few that where leading the charge have gone and left. I feel it would be great for both forums to drum up some more discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penndotguy Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I don't post a lot mostly just reports during storms, but I do enjoy reading this forum it seems more under control and laid back. I vote no merger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psv88 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Don't forget about all the free hookers and booze in the NYC forum, might change some votes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_AR_ Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 No merger. NYC is a different world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongBeachSurfFreak Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 There are some great people and quality posters in the nyc sub forum. Mods have been doing a good job of rooting out the trolls and drama queens so fighting has been much less then in the past So what do you gain, allot. You can still have a permanent philly thread like we do for out NW burbs and Long Island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacChump Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 why are ny people so invested in merging with philly? It would be like cats and dogs living together...mass hysteria, pretty much...what I'm saying is we're good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsley Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 This subforum is a ghost town in the wake of tombo's board being created. Probably best off merging. Maybe philly members can barter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjay Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 This is to any of the regulars in this subforum: Approximately how many people post in here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjay Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 Enough. Cool story. I was only asking to gauge how many more votes to expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph Wiggum Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 So what is the point? I can go read the NYC forum as easily as I could read a separate NYC thread.Agreed, its so much more simple and less confusing the way it is currently. Dont fix it if it isnt broke. And this is nothing personal with NYC....they have a great core of quality posters that I am friends with. The current format just makes more sense. Its not about quantity of posts but rather quality and convenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTA66 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I don't understand why those in other forums care how active ours is. The few of us who remain here are content and get along with each other. So what's the issue? The NYC forum does have some great posters. Unfortunately one has to weed through 90% bickering before reading anything of value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappy Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Just an outsider pov, wouldn't it make more sense to merge with, oh I don't know, the rest of the PA people instead of NY?
