Portland State Fans Forum has upgraded to phpbb3, the newest installment phpbb has made. The board now looks different and moves faster. Enjoy the new addition.

PSUFansForum.com turns 1 year old

psufansforum — Sun, 19 Aug 2007 01:06:34 +0000

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.

Opponent Message Boards

psufansforum — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 14:19:13 +0000

I’m bored and its the off-season, here is my opinion about the message boards that apply to Viking fans this season.

GeauxCowboys(McNeese State)

Board Activity: 5/10
Board Bias: 6/10
Board Layout and Format: 6/10
Board Look: 6/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 9/10
Board rating: D 32/50

These fans have realistic views on their season, they will point out every reason why they think the weather will affect PSU, these fans are welcome to all PSU fans, the board layout is unique but you can get used to it, good amount of traffic to. This board is one you will want to join.

AggisSportsTalk(UC Davis)

Board Activity: 3/10
Board Bias: 6/10
Board Layout and Format: 7/10
Board look: 8/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 8/10
Board rating: D 32/50

These fans are quite excited about their new stadium, the bias towards their team is big when it comes to playing up, but when playing PSU, the activity is not great but thats due to newness, layout and format is fairly good. These fans seem to be wanting the Viking view of the game. Again must join this board.

SacBuzz(Sacramento State

Board Activity: 2/10
Board Bias: 8/10
Board Layout and Format: 7/10
Board look: 5/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 9/10
Board rating: D- 31/50

This site is heavily inactive when it is not football season, and when it is football season it still isn’t great. the board format is good the logo needs to be shrunk to look better though, these fans have no bias which is good, welcome to our fans? you bet. Join this board but don’t expect immediate results.

AztecTalk(San Diego State)

Board Activity: 8/10
Board Bias: 7/10
Board Layout and Format: 7/10
Board look: 7/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 7/10
Board rating: C- 36/50

This site has lots of fans that are bewildered at the state of the football program, their bias is not huge most are realistic, format is easy, look is great and they are fairly welcome to Vikings. tons of traffic to. This is a must join.

EagSports(Eastern Washington)

Board Activity: 6/10
Board Bias: 8/10
Board Layout and Format: 9/10
Board look: 10/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 9/10
Board rating: B 42/50

EagSports is an awesome site, not just a great forum. Only BSC site that uses Rivals.com. These fans are great and love visitors. their site looks great and the bias is not big at all. Must join!

NAUFans(Northern Arizona)

Board Activity: 0/10
Board Bias: 2/10
Board Layout and Format: 8/10
Board look: 7/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 10/10
Board rating: F 27/50

This has zero activity, its very new ad a poster is trying to get the word out. Though this poster and most NAU fans have a monster and I mean monster bias, join this one when it has more members.

TheBengalDen(Idaho State)

Board Activity: 5/10
Board Bias: 4/10
Board Layout and Format: 7/10
Board look: 6/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 8/10
Board rating: D- 30/50

This board is a nice place to talk football, issue, these fans think they will make a national title run every year. Their views are clearly unrealistic, though it is a nice site and has o.k traffic. Join this on but beware

WSUFans(Weber State)

Board Activity: 4/10
Board Bias: 5/10
Board Layout and Format: 7/10
Board look: 7/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 7/10
Board rating: D- 30/50

Brand new site that is headed in the right direction, the fan bias is big but not humongous, the look is good and its nice to see WSU fans do care about their school. Join this one.

eGriz(Montana)

Board Activity: 10/10
Board Bias: 7/10
Board Layout and Format: 10/10
Board look: 10/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 8/10
Board rating: A- 45/50

What can I say about eGriz, when it comes to the technology world eGriz is superior and looking great. Hard to have a big bias when your bias is correct and not unrelaistic, the boar is welcome to anyone and is a no doubt must join.

BobcatNation(Montana
State

Board Activity: 8/10
Board Bias: 4/10
Board Layout and Format: 9/10
Board look: 9/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 8/10
Board rating: C 38/50

BobcatNation is a great site, it received the full help of Chris, the eGriz admin, and looks great, its welcome to anyone, only issue is their views are very unrealistic most of the time. Join this one though.

UNCBears(Northern Colorado)

Board Activity: 3/10
Board Bias: 2/10
Board Layout and Format: 9/10
Board look: 8/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 2/10
Board rating: F 24/50

UNCBears is growing and looking good but their fans are more unrealistic then any other, and they don’t want any other fans there but UNC fans, a sign that they clearly don’t have large fan base. Join at your own risk.

Portland State Fans Forum

Board Activity: 6/10
Board Bias: 7/10
Board Layout and Format: 8/10
Board look: 9/10
Welcome to PSU fans? 10/10
Board rating: B- 40/50

Your home town site, we are building at an incredible rate and traffic gets bigger every day, this is the #1 fan site for PSU fans we face the facts and have realistic views but stay optimistic, the board is welcome to any fan and should be a great site in the future. Again growth rate is better then eGriz at this point in time. With the help of fans and Chris of eGriz this site is looking fantastic. Must Join.

Anyways thats my take be sure to interact with other fan but watch out for some, Go Vikings!
