Best quick fix to try to to go to internet tools and clean everything up.
-delete cookies
-delete history
-etc.

Sometimes these things are just glitches whenever a program changes it won't automatically refresh web pages in the history.

I am far from a computer expert, but used to have a similar issue alot.

i would do that, but i have my firefox set 2 delete all the private data every time the program is closed...

its amazing how i miss a thread this size, and when i go to check it out, the first page is always completley based on a diff topic than the last page. WAR MMA NEWS

for me the place just has a different feel,way to much drama,and seems to have gotten more serious than it used to, meaning some dont like to joke around,or take everything out of context.i remember awhile back you could joke around and noone took it serious.it just isnt the light hearted place i remember when i spent so much time here before.i will still pop in like i do now but i hardly ever post anymore.

Dude, i know......
Im new here but i said one little thing to kind of lighten the mood and i got bashed on so much that i thought I might say one thing and get banned lol...

This was an old thread and really shouldn't have been bumped for something that pointless. But I understand why someone would do it.

As far as being serious, this place is only as serious as you let it be. The influx of young people with agressive ideas is a byproduct of MMA becoming so popular. Just let things run off your shoulder. Seriously. Have fun! If you're having a problem with one or two people, put them on ignore. Just pick the stuff out you want to read.

I think more than anything, it's that the community feel is gone. Now every time I come on here there's a million users and I don't know half of them and the ones I used to know don't post as often as they used to.

I miss the old days when it was just myself, Matt Boone, ninjashogunrua, alvin, and anthony trying to get these forums started. I miss watching it slowly build and gaining new and intelligent posters, like mastiffowner, banda, legend, boo, afro, etc.(sorry if you're a vet and I didn't mention your name, it doesn't mean that I don't love you) I miss having countless debates about which fighters were better pride fighters or ufc fighters. I miss staying up late and highjacking threads with boo and legend, where we would basically just bullshit with each other and talk about stuff that was completely off topic. I miss going into threads and getting ready to post something only to realize that chuckthechamp just posted exactly what I was going to say. I swear it's scary sometimes with the way chuckthechamp and I think. It's almost like we have the same mind, but that's not to say we don't have our fair share of differences and disagrements. I miss keeping my postcount up with afro's. I miss a lot of things about the way it used to be and it's sad, because just like they say "you can never go home again". These forums can never be what they were, but they're still not that bad. Sure they can be a little much at times, but they're still better than sherdog anyday.

(sorry if I bored anyone with this rant.)

I know exactly how you feel. Friday night hijacks were a lot of fun. It just wouldn't work these days.

I wasn't here when the site started (started visiting about 7 months after), but I've gone back and read some of the first threads; quite a few are funny as hell. There were only like 5-6 regular posters. lol

And that guy GracieAlumni with threads like "Is Leben a fudgepacker"... holy crap. lol Did he rejoin the site with another user name?

Funny thing is, if threads like that were made today we'd be lamenting the old days and there would be comparisons to Sherdog aplenty. Not saying things are perfect now but nostalgia tends to make people ignore the bad and highlight the good.

[Boo]

Valheruking, it's just that we knew each other a lot better back then. That just makes things different. For example, there is humor that you can use with people who know you well that wouldn't fly around people who don't, either because they don't get it or mistake it's meaning. It's not a shot at the forum the way it is now.

[valheruking]

Yeah I can see what you mean, I do notice a different mood even compared to when I joined.
