I think we all appreciate how you have moderated the board overall, but it is becoming apparent a poster or two is attemtping to disparage Marist. The Lawrence Williams thing might still be true, but I am talking more about the sneaky insinuations that have been coming up from new posters. If this is not possible, no problem. Just wondering if it is something that can be done easily.

I like yankee, appreciate what caller has done with this board but recently there has been alot of troll activity and questionable posting.

I have registered us a proboards forum like the overall MAAC board.

Please visit, take a look, provide feedback and hopefully sign up. I'm already prepared to moderate it should we want to take this group over there.

I really like the feel of that overall MAAC board so hopefully this new Marist one will be a success. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Author: Yankee [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 13:26:49 03/30/09 Mon Traffic will be low during offseason, but much better format for when the season gets going. Much easier to follow threads without having to page down every time and names can be checked. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Well, if you guys are all gonna leave me.....sob:-(...(J/K) I can't go over to the other board because I somehow got locked out after my computer froze, and when my son-in-law had to reboot the whole system, something happened to cause me not to be ableto log on to the MAAC board. Even after trying to register a new name, TG280, and being told I was accepted, it stll refused to let me log on. So, obviously, something happened during that reboot to block me going to the MAAC board. Oh well!
