Am I the only one here? was created by clifton heights
Just wondering if anybody checks in here, or is there a new place for current issues? I am sad to see this empty.

I feel the same way, but what can we do?
It simply fizzed out with no real cause. Wonder if it;s because Brockton has fizzed out?

If we all sang the same note in the choir, We'd never have harmony

I am still here!

I think most people have migrated over to the Brockton hub page on Facebook. Even before that started we had talked about having a page like that funny no one wanted to because they couldn’t remain anonymous post what they wanted like they did here. Kind of like what they do now on the Brockton hub. LOL

So I think we lost a lot of posters to that. We do have an in Brockton.com Facebook page but it doesn’t get anywhere near the traffic at the hub those obviously know what we used to back in the day.

People used to like being able to post anonymously and not have things come back on them and quite honestly that’s how we found out a lot of stuff that was going on in the city. The site was the place to be. We constantly had news and information we found out about all types of city goings on. I’ve been here since the start I think it’s like 20 to 24 years now or something like that I lost count and I am very sad to see it slow down and be what it is today. Over the years I’ve put a lot of work into inbrockton.com Mostly so on the old site and I miss everybody that used to post on here although I will say I am friends with quite a few of them in real life and on Facebook

This was the best source of local news to me. Anonymity is the key for city issues. I met only a few in person; have nothing to hide, but came in a lot later than most folks. I can't deal with the Hub. I'll continue to check here for old time's sake.

I had some aspirations to get people to write some "feel good" stories for the front page and then I would share them to Facebook.

I get more requests to join the Facebook group than I do the regular site. It's funny. eh. What can you do. In a way it's nice to not have to referee every two hours too. It was a good run.

I've been able to install software to stem the tide of spam accounts, and the site is pretty easy to update without messing it up (except for the past few weeks which were a little crazy).

It will probably never come back to what it was, but we can still come here for a while.

I'd love for the site to see more action.

But if it's gonna be non-stop complaining, then I'd rather see if die.

I always loved it when people posted information, helpful contacts, and stories about great things happening.

Brockton is a great place, and has great potential.

I'm on the IBC FB page, but it's not the same kind of of info. It appears to be the Keith Hayes show, though I see the links designed to entice people here. The Brockton Hub has no filter. I wish I could narrow it down to topics that are relevant. Too many things are extreme, unhappy, irrelevant, and not even related to Brockton.

Thank you Capt. Check out SeeClickFix, there's a poster there who is acting as an Admin, making random comments, closing issues..pretty funny stuff. Goes by Justice. I think some people think he\she works for the city. A lot of stuff is "blocked by rejections" which I think are inappropriate comments.

Capt, I assume if you sign up for the app or website there may be a way to search for that name? Just a guess.

Did that, CH. No results. I also scanned many posts with no luck. Oh well.

Not sure, then. I did not download the app, though it looks like a handy tool. I will keep it in mind for the future.
