I would never make it into the Hall. Everyone hates me, even though I have been here for a long time.

I don't hate you, but I hardly feel I know you...

There should be no shame for people who don't make the HOF

the idea is to appreciate others, not to focus on yourself

It would be hard for me to appreciate someone in Hall who came after we traded for KG, just being honest.  If someone was here during the hard years then I would have no problem what so ever.

There are some really good posters that have stumbled on to our little community since then. I know I got here by sheer dumb luck..no one told me about it, nobody linked to it..and by that account I can't very well hold a well liked and valuable poster back just because they were unlucky until after KG was traded.

it takes a lot more than longevity to get into a hall of fame.  it is about the body of work, what one brings to the table with their contributions, and how they treat their peers.

I understand this thinking, kind of like not thinking a guy who only had 5 great years in the NBA before retiring early or getting injured deserves to be in the hall of fame.  However, I think it is kind of different here.  Some people simply don't find this until later, and it has nothing to do with KG, or anything else.  I know I wish I had found it much earlier than I did, but it wasn't until one of the ESPN guys (either Simmons or Ford, I forget) mentioned it that I ever thought to check it out.  

I think posters should certainly be around a while before entering the hall, but if they have had two years of tremendous posts, then I see no reason why the timing of when they happened to start posting should preclude them from the recognition.

Im very proud that there is at least one purist looking to keep the integrity of the CB hall of fame.  Sounds like Jim Rice haha
