****Adding New registered users****

WHISTLE BLOW!!!
This is a forum to "ADD" a prospective new members username.
The reason this is here, is to help circumvent the spam-bots that are rampant on the Internet currently. We have to delete thousands of "FAKE" new user requests. That is why the registration process was changed.
We imagine from time to time someone/thing will sneak past the current measures we have setup for them to join. However upon the first spamming incident, they will either get warned or booted, depending on what it was.
So, to help facilitate a quicker authorization of a new member, just post the new users "exact" name in a post here and we will get them authorized. Remember, that you're basically giving them a reference to get in because you know them from one of the other sports boards.
Thank you for joining us and we hope you all have a good time while you're here. Remember to have patience with some of the teams regular posters not coming over to this location to join in. If/when they see other people having good conversations here, they're more likely to join in and sign up.
A bit of reference; the very first location we had setup was very busy and the conversations would go on throughout the day and night. the drawback to it was that it was all linear and harder to follow conversations as you would have to scroll back to see what was said. That is why we created this format, as it's much easier to keep up, answer, start conversations. The added benefit of posting images, creating avatars, and posting your text in a variety of colors and styles is also a plus.
