Higgins 3,618 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 The VHLM has hit an all-time low in terms of game thread activity and posts. For the previous six seasons we had been trending upwards in terms of posts in VHLM game threads, but this season has significantly dipped, to the lowest amount of posts on record. Here are the stats over the past seven seasons for VHLM game thread replies. I excluded S35 because not all threads were posted, and many new and old members were lost when we had to switch forums. VHLM Game Thread Replies S36: 293 S37: 343 S38: 389 S39: 616 S40: 466 S41: 532 S42: 223 As you can see over S39, S40 and S41 the VHLM was averaging over 500 posts per season, which was a solid benchmark to keep building off of for the future of the league. Unfortunately things have taken a turn for the worst, as there were only 223 replies in Season 42. If you compare these numbers to the VHL, it is the exact opposite, the VHL had 2,045 replies to game threads, which is an all-time high. Obviously this isn't all that accurate to how good the prospects are in the upcoming drafts, and how deep the drafts are, but I think it gives a pretty good indication that the VHLM needs a major upgrade. This isn't acceptable to have 223 replies to game threads, and it starts from the top so I personally vow to bring positive change to the VHLM for Season 43.

eaglesfan036 4,593 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I think me saying yukon 2 gud for 72 games in the past seasons raised it quite a bit :3 Will and Phil 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Baozi 1,658 Posted April 20, 2015 Moderator Share Posted April 20, 2015 The problem partially comes from the fact games are not posted fast enough. I regularly goto the index to check scores because there are no game posts. I can imagine others doing the same. CowboyinAmerica 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendrick 4,741 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 That's not 2 gud of a reason IMO. Players on the team I managed also found it annoying. I'm just saying getting hounded everyday in chat with it and it being rubbed in faces wasn't the best thing to come on the board for, brother or not you have to admit that.

Jala 922 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 That's not 2 gud of a reason IMO. hahaha. I don't see how it would be a problem tbh, it's just eagles being proud of the team he managed with a semi-annoying catch phrase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
