Just spitballing here. Some of this depends on exactly how this end up being setup. More like Memphis or Cincy.

Here's what i'm thinking.

"The Roundhouse" as the overall name
-BB forum named after Dave the Rave. The basketball forum should probably have a recruiting subforum inside.
-Baseball forum named after Gene
-VB forum (Lambs to the Slaughter?)
-Other Shocker Sports forum
-The Fridge (I like that idea)


You should make Football forum and call it " what could have been" just for the hell of it

FWIW I don't think it would be a good idea to split up the sports into different sub-forums. Not enough activity.

If we get this going I think there will be a fair amount of activity. I'm sure there will be enough to warrant separating the Basketball and Baseball from everything else at the very least. I think there are plenty of folks that will frequent both this board and shockernet.

I'm still waiting to hear back from George Tech swagger about color changes, name changes etc. In the meantime, we will have to go with it as is.

Pony also posted on the Mod only forum to GTS about getting you up and running. As other have said he does have a job as well as this site so please be patient. In the meantime the more active you make this place the better.

Knowing a little bit about this process, he will ask you to have "MOD ELECTIONS" and will start a thread with that title. Folks need to nominate others (No self nominations) and the ones with the most votes (usually 1-3) will become Mods.

Hope that helps!

RE: Using this forum; colors, moderators etc.
I'd recommend keeping it to one board until traffic warrants splintering it out. Use the post icons to differentiate between sports. If you'd like to see the "one board to rule them all" in effect: http://memphis.csnbbs.com

If you'd like to see the polar opposite, where everything is split out: http://wmu.csnbbs.com

I'll let the skin settle in for now, but I'll start a few polls tonight/tomorrow to get a feel for how to organize, what to name, etc.

Also, if there is going to be an influx of new WSU posters, it's best to give me a heads up on that before you tell the world. Then I can watch registration and approve people in a few hours instead of the typical 24-36.

Anybody asking to be a moderator should be eliminated from voting at the start. I believe Wheatshock already disqualified himself. The best moderators are those that don't want to be one. Those that do... are trouble.

Not at all, but if certain posters are chosen as "lords over the land", I won't spend a single second in this place.

Wheatshock has improved over the months, but my initial impression of him was not good. He'll need to age a bit more on these boards before he gets CB's stamp of approval. We already have mods (DSB and Subby) so I think we'll be fine.

That isn't accurate. We do have some spots with active #1 boards who have no true home moderation. These groups are, admittedly, well behaved.
