From everything I've read elsewhere, even the diehard fans seem to be giving up on the product.
I used to love TNA in 2004/2006, as they offered me what felt like a true alternative to what the WWE was offering, and that was enough for me to give them a serious chance. Stuff like the X-division was enough to keep me around and entertained and right up until 2010 (lol) I felt they were the superior product on a more consistent basis ... I even went by the name TNAJay on the WWE Universe forum ...
I can't even begin to imagine how people could just watch TNA in this day and age, with NXT basically offering what TNA used to: better female wrestling, exciting young performers and great matches, veterans being used well -- it's everything you need if you're sick of the current WWE product.
I can't sit through another "TNA has been down lately, but we plan to rebuild it" speech from Dixie. She just needs to understand it's over for them.

I am sure there are probably people who are into specific parts, but like as a company? Probably far fewer than in the past.

I am still a TNA fan. Even though I don't get Destination America, I keep up with the shows by reading Tweets and spoilers. I am disappointed in how many WWE-type wrestlers are there now. I always hope for the best with TNA, not always relishing the struggles and negativity like everyone else on here.
NXT doesn't interest me. Can't stand anything about WWE. I don't want to see my favorite wrestlers wrestling WWE style.

I really wanna hear what the diehard TNA people who got banned or just plain got sick of TNA and stopped visiting the board think of everything that's happened this past year.

I consider myself a fan. If I wasn't a fan, I wouldn't watch it weekly, even if the only way I can get through it is with our weekly Impact thread. That doesn't mean that I'm a fanatic who's blind to what's happened or makes excuses for the state it's in. I know it's up Merde Creek and they not only don't have a paddle, they don't have canoe, a life jacket, and they can't swim.

I haven't seen a hardcore TNA fan around here in ages. Even king for all of the flak that he gets wasn't as defensive about it as some of his predecessors who were either banned or gave up and left.

Yes, but they're usually the ones attacking people for disliking them

Does the street team/paid plants count? If so their all over at one particular site.

I guess most either got banned, or went back to the hole they crawled out of, like this one guy in another forum, SpecialFNK or something, claim to never seen wrestling until TNA in 2010, and got on everyones nerves by not acknowledging what AJ styles accomplished before Hogan, convinced any WWE superstars (none of the he has ever seen)if they come to TNA will make them beat WWE is the rating (including Edge whom he thought still wrestled, Misterio, AJ lee, Alberto, Melina, etc), and was convinced Taryn Terell is the greatest female wrestler ever in our sports.
I am still wondering if guys like him or King1836 might have been trolls, who knows.

That makes me laugh, honestly. Maybe a lot of them just got banned or whatever but I like to think that even they had a limit on how much bullshit they could defend and snuck away in the darkness when the entire company basically went Full Dixie.

honestly when I get to watch I usually enjoy the show, or at least find it inoffensive. I'll openly admit to wanting TNA to stay alive as it gives more wrestling on tv, but I feel (or at least try) to objectively criticize TNA where they deserve it but also will defend them when I think the hate is there just to hate on TNA. I mean, there's plenty to give TNA crap for and if/when they die management has nobody to blame but themselves, but there are some things that some hate on that I genuinely like.

Yes, yes there is. I've seen people still try to defend TNA and say every show is must watch. However, they are getting fewer and fewer in number.
