Some other advantages using a new site;

- You have to register to post, so there's no potential issues with authenticity. It looks like theres no problem with this at problem with a reliable group of coaches, but with new coaches coming in often, whats really stopping someone posting under someone elses name? Once you register with the new forum it will automatically sign you in every time you visit, so theres no hassle.

- If you want to talk trades, and want more privacy then posting on your own board or someone elses, you can send PM's (private messages) to each other on the site. Much like email, but much easier as it's all on the one site. You will be alerted whenever you have a new PM.

- If people do desire, you can have a sub-forum within your team page. This sub-forum requires a password to enter, so only you will be able to enter. Or if you so desire, instead of a sub-forum, you can have a direct link going straight to your team page on the website (much like the link to the SL website). Forums needing passwords are also good for private talk from moderators.

- It is easy to see when there is a new post or topic. The blue circle on the far left of the page will flash, indicating there are new posts. Each new topic within each board will be highlighted to indicate which threads have new posts. It's really quite simple.

Time to enter the 21st century people.

Suggest setting up a ladder board on the "Season 2006" forum
&
Free Agents List on the "Drafts" forum.

The freeservers.com site (where the ladder etc are now) is bug ridden with tracking cookies although the powers that be denied this yesterday.
