As of today Portland State Fans Forum is officially 1 year old. I made this board because we needed a real site, everyone else in the BSC had one. And also because of a certain poster at OL. I feel I made the right decision. In 1 year we have gone from 1 member (myself) to 773. At this time last year this board looked different, had a small amount of conversation, and was not very popular. Most people were using the board to get away from the Oregon Live forum, which sadly has been abandoned by most fans because of certain conversation interferences. I’d like to thank those who were in support of this site from the start, during that time period there wasn’t much going on. Thank you for not leaving.
Our first Game Day Thread was on September 2nd, 2006, sadly I could not even be on PSFF, I was at my Grandparents 50th anniversary, But I’ve never been happier to be on a hill top in the middle of nowhere to find out that we pulled of yet another upset. After that lots of fans began to jump on board. We had turned a lot of heads around the country. We had a fair amount of people show up at the site on road games, the same for home games. (Though I’d like you all to be at the game if you can be there) We had some interesting weeks, from when the Montana fans invaded our board, to the frustration of losing to Montana State. We had our moments. The season ended and the board was a little more quiet, getting snubbed from the playoffs sucked. But oddly after football, when Basketball got going, a whole bunch of fans began to join. Posters that know are regulars here. Membership kept increasing. Going into the Month of March PSFF had 192 members, then for some odd reason (that odd reason is named Jerry Glanville) we gained 140 members in one month, moving us to 332 by the end of the month, since then we have kept a steady average of 115 new members per month., but football season is always the big getter. After that the board really formed into what it is now. We have frequent posters from many schools, from Hawaii to Wyoming to San Diego State to McNeese State, we have a very diverse group. VikThunder won our first March Madness Tourney. We set up a Fantasy Football League. Things got real good after Jerry and Mouse showed up. PSUFansForum.com has gained a lot of neat stuff thanks to the members who make it was it is. I want to thank all you members who have stayed and made this board into a great place for fans, alumni, players, parents, etc. Also thank you to those who have donated, you all take a load of my back. Its been nice to have a place where Viking fans can express their personal opinions without being heckled. Keep spreading the word fans! At the games, work, the mall, wherever! Make PSUFansForum.com the place to be for Viking fans.
Also R.I.P. to one of our members, Griz Grunt. Who passed away not that long ago.
