[Chat/Message Boards] Message Board Removal Feedback
Feedback regarding the removal of message boards from Fantasy Baseball in the 2023 season.
Fantasy league message boards are not going to be available for the current season however you can still access historical message board posts through your fantasy profile. You can continue to communicate with your league via Fantasy Chat, email and commissioner notes. Moving forward we are investing in chat as the best place for league communication and will be adding threading, pinning, polls and more. We welcome your feedback below about how your league used message boards to help us make future improvements.

I dont even understand the thought process of removing. If you want to add features that is great but why take away something like a message board. You should add the message board back.

This is the best way to communicate within the League. Please add it back.

Join FANTRAX now. You can still "keep" your Yahoo leagues as in all you do is set-up an account on Fantrax (email / user name /password just like Yahoo account) and copy & paste your league over there.
FANTRAX is free. It has a great Message Board (with thread options) and threaded chat app available on laptop as well as phone. Tons of other stuff including very good service.
FANTRAX actually replies to your questions, problems and even suggestions. Imagine that. A platform that does it's job right.
Then just let your league over here rot on the vine. Our commish didn't even bother to delete our leagues here though some players deleted their teams in them. Doesn't matter if you delete your league here or let it rot...same difference for us managers.

Message boards make it fun. Also I'm in 2 leagues with people from around the country. We are already looking to join a new site since yahoo is ruining fantasy.

Our entire league wants the message boards back. It was our main form of communication. We are thinking of switching to a different website if Yahoo doesn't bring the message boards back, and this is our 23rd year on Yahoo.

Bring back the message boards. No one has found this Fantasy Chat yet, and we are unable to communicate.

Bring back the **** message boards. How did we use it? We used it ALL THE TIME. Your chat is not even great to use. Email the league? What good does that do when you cant reply all and see what others wrote, like normal emails. This may be the dumbest thing ever

Fantasy sports on yahoo is one of the reasons why yahoo is not DEAD.
Now you just go and p!$$ off users that use one of your last remaining aspects of your website? LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

many players still use message boards via the web interface, i cant even access chat via the web interface. not everyone uses the app and if they do, the chat isnt really front and centre. The chat is a joke and creates garbage communication. Bring back the msg boards!

Free speech!

Bring back message boards immediately. They are used for commissioners to give league announcements too large for chat messages.

Scott Ross commented
Our league has been playing together for many years and we are from different countries even.The message boards were a fun and easy way to communicate so all could share throughout the long baseball season. This is a huge mistake and makes the Fantasy experience less enjoyable and takes away the friendship and comradery that Yahoo is famous for!

We've used the message boards for 15 years and never the chat. Stupid move.

One of my leagues quit Yahoo for ESPN due to this change.

Andrew Calkins commented
We used to use Yahoo's chat function on the website (some users in our league don't use their phones for this) ALL the time. Still don't understand why it went away. Please bring it back. Communication among teams is, believe it or not, the most important reason why we DO this thing and have done it for more than three decades. PLEASE PRIORITIZE group and 1;1 chat and message boards!

Oliver Gruetzner commented
