I typed in WoolyAl and it directed me to RollTideBama. All the old WOolly threads are there, including the daily dose of ineptitude. I guess Woolly is paired with a new 'Bama website

Hannibal is redirecting everyone their as that site agreed to host everyone temporarily. They are working on building the new Wooly. Keep checking in there. Seems like people are making their way over......

I went to woollyal for a while after tidesports. WA couldn't hold a candle to the original TS crew. TS had so many great characters like Kingpin, Bensabamafan, UncleTupelo, Frblfan, etc.

WA was way too into sunshine pumping.

Yeah, I personally wasn't too crazy about WA. It was better than TideFans, of course, so it had that. Some good people at WA, though.

The old TideSports group is slowly being diluted. I guess I'll check out the new wooly once they get situated.

Gosh, Tidesports really laid out the road map on how to completely lose an active and involved userbase... I remember back in the day when I would check it 20 times a day, post constantly and then I just never posted or visited the site again.

I went to RBR for a while but then it went downhill and I've been a casual Ranter ever since.

The sec rant is the best thing going now, but the bama board doesn't get enough traffic to keep it interesting...it's just too slow.

I lurked on WoollyAl for a while. It was nice to have a Bama version on Tigerdroppings/Shaggybevo, even though it was smaller and had less traffic. Sad to see it gone.

Is this board now the best Alabama message board on the web???

if hannibal decided to take it down, i'm sure he had a good reason ... i'm sure whatever he puts up will be a good site for bama fans and others to congregate and talk ...

FootHand was only trying to help and had good intentions. Hannibal curled up into a ball like a little baby and didn't want to hear his ideas so he went over his head.

Look at what WoollyAl had become. An outdated format with 9 regular posters who were very heavily into homo-eroticism.

Every other post was a "bro, I love you", or "if you were a woman, I'd marry you", or "kiss me like you like it" type thing. These responses started out as ironic jokes but evolved into the absurd and unusual normal. They had completely ran out of ideas and were drifting into buffoonery responses as the norm.

No new posters were joining because, frankly, the site was depressing and incestuous.

FootHand wanted to update the 1996 look and feel of the board. He wanted to inject new ideas and topics into the dead and depressing usual. He merely wanted to revive the board and give the posters there another chance.

Why did he want to do this? Because he felt a connection to WoollyAl that reminded him of TideSports and the "good ole days" of his message board youth.

There is nothing wrong with that and he had only good intentions. Hannibal is a failure as administration of a football message board.

Really, why in the hell does he want to open another board? It doesn't make any sense. The site he had was a depressing, forlorn, dead, pit of sorrow that less than 10 regular posters called their home. Some idiots never learn.

Update: As of now, those retards who refused AHM's help and guidance are currently in the process of destroying their temporary host's site at rolltidebama.com.

Here:

Slow Destruction of Yet Another Board

they are at it again. Bitching and whining, creating havoc, and acting like they own the board they are visiting. The owner of that board is having to come into the thread and tell some losers he doesn't care if they leave or not, etc... It's always the same thing with these idiots.

I'm not sure what you are talking about but, let's discuss how horrible WoollyAl posters are.

It's beginning again, yet another board destroyed from within. Now the moderator of RollTideBama is slowly realizing he made a major mistake.

I tried to warn him but, he thought it would be okay. He believed that all of you were normal posters just looking for a temp. home. He didn't realize that his board would be totally dominated by inane and idiotic chatter. He didn't realize that he would already, after just a few days, have to be telling people they could stay or leave, post or not, etc...

What TerryP still doesn't realize, but soon will, is that his board will never be the same. All it is going to take is one wrong word, one insult, one perceived slight, and the lot of you will haunt his site 'till it is finished.

All of you are a cancer. You were cancerous on TideSports, you were cancerous on WoollyAl, and now the disease has spread to RollTideBama.
