The State of PP.O

**BadlandsVikings** · 07-03-2010, 07:16 PM

Summer on pp.o is always slow but this year has seemed even slower. Is pp.o on the down swing? Have people lost insterst? Has the new format run people off?

Could be a number of things this summer, I know for me situations have been a little interesting and I haven't had the time to visit the site. Not to mention with the way things ended last season, other than following the updates on whats been going on i've been trying to let the sting of the loss lose its edge lol I think it'll pick up as the season gets going

If the options are to come here and talk favre or not come here at all, i'll choose the latter. Lots of things to do i.e state fair, county fairs, holidays etc..I hope to be there for the sept. preseason home game and multiple during the regular season. We are planning a weekend trip to mankato as a family as well. B)

Let´s wait till September

The newshound not being around hurts, imho. This use to be a one stop shop for everything viking related. Every story relating to the Vikings was posted on a daily basis.

I also wonder if linking accounts to facebook hasn't limited some posters willingness to share.

I think a lot of it has to do with the slowness of the site. I know I have stopped posting so much because it takes so long to wait for the site to load.

I think a lot of people have stepped up when Singer left. I think most of the articles are still posted.

I agree with the slowness of the site. I also hate how it logs you off so fast. I'm here at work most of the time, and if I go check another website and come back, I'm normally logged off. Doesn't take but a couple minutes.

thats not the site, thats your computer. My home pc logs me off constantly, my work PC will keep me in for days.

One thing I don't like, no indication that I have unread messages anymore!~!!!

Must be something with my account then. This is the only site that does it. Its the same for my laptop as well. I can stay logged in on other forums here at work all day. weird.
