Questions for CyFan Premium peeps:

1. Does Premium have its own forums and game day threads?
2. Does it have less popup ads?
3. Do the Game Day threads have less trolls in it than the non paid?

I have noticed a RAPID decline in the CyFan experience in the last year. Pop up ads that make the site nearly unusable. Even worse, a handful of posters who are clearly not Cyclone fans that take this from what-used-to-be a fun site to a not fun site--specifically Darius Bieber, cmhawks99, and GoSTATE71.
 
The only problem is that sometimes people leak inside info. No one has come up with a good way to deal with that yet.

I switched to a premium membership from the Patreon subscription- definitely wish I had switched sooner. CW, Blum and the team share a bit more than is normally sent out to the Patreon members. And the Mark Mangino thread is definitely worth the price of admission

Premium game threads are way more sane. Although last night things got pretty sideways.

How is it for bball and fball recruiting? My 247 just expired so could possibly flip to cf prem. I’ll hang up and listen.
 
Premium is worth every penny, especially when games are going sideways. I pretty much abandon the main board game threads if things aren't going swimmingly.
Why I'm reconsidering a sub. Game threads can get toxic pretty quickly, and I'll get sucked into the muck at times.

IMO, Reddit game threads are far superior to CF game threads. They're generally pretty level headed plus they're usually a decent mix of fanbases for important games.

Pretty heavy on ISU fans usually too. There were 4600 comments in the game thread last night and another 900 in the post game thread.
