I was a part of Black Reign for many years. It was run by a good guy from Seattle. It started to fall apart due to bickering and a number of us left including Phil the originator. I know it rebounded though and was doing well last time I looked. We used to meet for a game in Oakland once a season. Had a great tailgate party and sat in the north end second deck.Attyla » Mon Apr 08, 2024 8:50 am

Some really good guys in that forum but there were some super argumentative fellows that drove people away. I don’t think anyone got timeouts or bans which was not beneficial in the end. At least that is my memory of the site which is now at least 15 years ago. So I joined the site where this shyster took my money and never gave me my t-shirt!!

Oh that. A friend is coming here at the end of this week. for his 50th college reunion and he expressed interest. We have been Raiders pals since 1971. Let me find out if he still wants it.Attyla wrote Mon Apr 08, 2024 8:50 am:I have an old magazine if you want one lol

Wasn't the t-shirt a reward for giving him money to "upgrade the server"?islandboy wrote Mon Apr 08, 2024 9:01 am:I guess that means I am definitely not getting my TShirt now.
All hope is gone.

As of late it seemed to me that site only had maybe a half dozen regulars, traffic was slow. Id check in periodically because every once in awhile Id see an article that I hadn't seen anywhere else. Sometimes it goes out for a few days and then pops back up after awhile. Who knows?Attyla » Mon Apr 08, 2024 11:23 am

Admittedly before the scandals happened, that old site was pretty lit. You could sign in anytime, 24/7 and threads were popping all over the place. It never slept.Attyla wrote Mon Apr 08, 2024 11:23 am:Those pesky servers!

If memory serves me right that was to be the deal and you could criticize Big Al 3 times without getting a Lifetime Ban.RunOverByHubbard wrote Mon Apr 08, 2024 10:25 am:Wasn't the t-shirt a reward for giving him money to "upgrade the server"?
