Posted Thursday at 04:02 PM5 days Administrator Yep, on August 7th, 2011....my web developer texted me and said, "we're live," and the site began with publishing articles. Since that time we have published over 7,000 articles, and yours-truly has written over 700 articles. This birthday is for the article site, FishDuck.com, although the forum did come into existence many years later, and it is very special to me.We serve thousands of readers and OBD members, and do it all for free, thanks to all the volunteers, and your patience with the ads, and backlink references in articles.We are all great at giving a spirited opinion, while not taking personal shots at one-another. It is a rare set of sites, and I thank everyone for being a part of this fun.This video was made right at this time....fourteen years ago! (I miss my Abbie!) Mr. FishDuck
Thursday at 04:43 PM5 days Congratulations Charles, this is a superb forum! Full of information, moderated well and not intimidating for us less sophisticated DUCKS.
Thursday at 05:10 PM5 days Moderator This is far more than a mere sports website. This is the heart of a great community of Duck fans from around the world, many of whom contribute in different ways to provide an amazing fan experience throughout the year. We've had so many great discussions on so many topics without the nastiness that most online discussions devolve in to. The forum with decorum. My favorite place on the web. Happy anniversary!
Thursday at 07:40 PM5 days Moderator Wholeheartedly agree with KK. I don’t know if there is anyway to calculate the off-the-charts effort it has taken to create and maintain the level of decency that you have. Don’t burn your beak blowing out the candles!
Thursday at 10:11 PM5 days I remember those early years. You have helped me learn so much about our Ducks and the game itself. I wear my Fishduck polo with pride.
Friday at 04:58 AM5 days Despite a few early rules violations, Charles got me properly socialized and I have always felt welcome by the board members on his forum. I do enjoy exchanging views with y'all and rooting the Ducks on.
