Hahaha, so you were on a Monkey or Inbred? LOL Yeah, I loved my '08 Monkey, rigid, but when plus came about though, I 69'd it with a 650B 2.8" in rear and 29x3.0" in front, which slacked the HTA out by about 2.5-3 degrees and made it much more fun on the steeper and techier stuff, definitely got ridden much more once I made that change.
Another option, although don't think you can even find them these days is an travel adjustable fork if your frame doesn't offer geo adjustment. My friend got a 130-150 Pike for his 2014 Trek Rumblefish and it made a world of difference for him on the downs.
