[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.

Bad choice. Why do you ask for feedback when you know you won't put it back. Time to look for another site.

holy ******* ****. Is this for real? How in the **** are the premium leagues supposed to work? We have no way of realistically communicating with the league without the message board. E-mail does jack ******* **** for those leagues because e-mails work like **** between strangers outside of business. This is so ******* stupid. Why do you want to continue to diminish something that works well for you? Why does Yahoo have such poor business sense? Did none of your executives actually go to school?

In your league, you will be competing with others from all over this country. The back and forth between others is almost as much fun as the games. Everyone has an opinion and some are highly passionate. The entertainment value of this one function is very high. MY ONE HUGE COMPLAINT. There is no way to communicate with a Yahoo person. Last season you dropped the ball and it cost me money. I was in the championship game and 1 point down with Tee Higgins still to play. My opponent didn't have anyone left to play. The game was canceled and my opponent won. But he got the benefit of having points from one more player than me. You should have given me the points Tee Higgens got the following week. Instead, you did nothing and we could not reach anyone from Yahoo. BAD SERVICE. Improve that, please. Yahoo has the best product on the market right now. But improvements are still necessary. Such as being able to communicate with a person from Yahoo when we have a problem.

either take the "color commentator" medals OFF the board or allow the players the "league message board", for THAT is the only way to achieve the "color commentator" medals......how about some service?

I would like for Yahoo to consider returning the message board for our FBB league use.

Awesome decision. Every year more mentally unstable trolls with ego problems creating message board histrionics. Not even politics just people with issues causing problems. Disturbing and depressing.

Taking the message board off really took a lot of the fun out of playing. Sending the mails is not the same. Why did you guys take it away anyway??!!

I used the message board as a "newspaper" much like an actual columnist does for his/her local teams. I attempted to inject humor when possible, but I was very frank when writing about my "HoosierPackers." I used it to drum up interest in some of the players I was thinking of trading, and finally, I used it as an attempt to get some of the owners to maintain interest when they appeared to be lost for the season.
Oh Well, another attempt to piece together a Hall of Fame package will have to be created.
Thanks for the opportunity to place my comments.Terry (This Year The "HoosierJets").

Please also add minors positions in Yahoo … my Commish has moved his leagues to Fantrax due to the message boards being removed with the idea that he could move back for next year, but now he is loving the minors spots on the roster and doesn’t need to keep posting it so he’s thinking about not moving back … please add either the minors spot OR make the NA spots have no restrictions so we can put whoever we want on them whether they are designated NA or not … then the Commissioners for each league can police them as they see fit 👍👍

Removing message boards from private leagues is completely authoritarian, especially without any explanation. We use our message board for basic league function in our private league that has been running for more than a decade. If you remove the message board from private leagues you are basically destroying our league.

I think it is a shame that politics has ruined our ability to communicate with each other in a fantasy football league.
