Former UPFers unite

Postby HopyMSU » Sun Nov 18, 2007 7:37 pm

Well, hate to even bring it up or post this, but I feel as though I must. I know BTP has been a refuge for former UPF posters, and the current state of affairs over there is ridiculous. Just see this thread:



Yes, that's UPFTechAssist pulling rank and actually flaming a new member. Well, I have always loved UPF but that shit is just ridiculous. So, I hope to bring what little value I can to BTP from now on.

I don't want to start a flame war on UPF, but yet I do. :twisted: Sorry...but feel free to pile on UPFTA or myself!

Looking forward to seeing former UPFers and meeting new players here more often than I have in the past.

Heh - when I left UPF and came here, I didn't make a formal agreement to myself to never return - but yet - I never have. It completely dropped off my radar.

Hello Andy.

UPF has sucked for a very long time....and it doesn't have anything to do with Grant Pittman or Roy Cooke not posting there.

You guys are hilarious. Pathetic really.

I've never seen a bunch of grown men (I assume you're all both grown and men) get their panties in a knot so fast and easily. That's the first interesting thing to happen on that forum in a long time. UPF has been dying a slow death for quite awhile, largely because the quality of the posters has deteriorated to the point that people now find PBG interesting. (just kidding)

I've been a member there for years and I always get a kick out of the fact that the most controversial threads almost ALWAYS have nothing at to do with poker. I swear that 90% of the posters from UPF are not there to share poker stories or opinions, but just for companionship. Maybe they're a little lonely?

Should TechAssist have done what he did? No way. But I'm sure he was tired of all the incessant whining.

"Boohoo, why is the forum dying? I'll come back in 2 months and find out why."

Do you see the irony?

Yeah UPF was a good start for me but BTP is a much better forum, even with some of the difficulties we've had lately.

This is great news for me. I was on UPF a few years ago and the site was a joke back then. It was like being in high school again, just a clique of a dozen posters who wouldn't talk to anyone but their own. This was when I first started playing online and I had a ton of questions but couldn't get anyone to answer a thread. They were too busy responding to the spam posts and giggling to themselves. I tried for a bit then moved on. What a surprise that the site has gone downhill :shock:


BTW your link doesn't work. Kinda a downer I wanted to see what brought it down.
