Well let me be the first to start a thread on this beutiful new site.
First off I wanted to thank those who are responsible for the creation of this site and I am proud to be one of the first members.
A brief history of myself: I currently live in Toronto and work as a policy advisor for the Ontario Public Service. I have been a Jays fan since 1986 and will continue to be forever.
I am happy to be here and look forward to educated and insightful dicussions pertaining to the Toronto Blue Jays.

Anywhere joe goes, I go.
By the way, Glausome ... I wasn't going to ask over at "the other place," but are you gojays2004?

Were the 04 Jays worth making a moniker about?? Not me homey. I was JCarter29 years ago.

Well Captain told me about this place.... and I'm willing to give it a try.
Scout.com is getting brutal. They don't give a damn about the posters and I'm certainly sick of the 'You're so lucky you can post here' attitude.
Now they're beating their chest saying they're the 3rd busiest baseball messageboard on the site.
Not for long...

Nice little forum you have going here. Too bad the Mods at scout wrecked it for many.

Hey Robinhood.... lets suck the life out of the scout board! People are sick of it..... trust me... they'll leave if they have a place to go.

You can run but you can't hide. I'm like the little sister you have to drag along everywhere you go.
Good luck getting this board up and running.

I cant believe the word Sucks isnt allowed. If somethings not allowed, shouldnt it be censored? How are members supposed to know whats not allowed. I think ITD makes the rules on the fly.

On thing I don't want with this board is too many coming over from scout.com.... I would perfer for now at least to keep this a mature forum.
I know that I might be asking for a lot.... and it prolly won't happen, but its a challenge..

Are you inviting specific people from the site over here?
If that's the case perhaps we should nominate a few posters we think would be valuable....

Post by captainbolduke on Aug 5, 2006 18:15:53 GMT -5
Just invite people you think won't be overly annoying

Does anyone know how to change your profile.... I can't seem to figure it out.

Post by TestSubjekt on Aug 6, 2006 23:21:06 GMT -5
Click on your name, choose modify profile (near the top)...where it says "Member's Bio - Modify Profile - Bookmarks"
That's how I changed my name to the more familiar TestSubjekt. That one is the 5th box down, I think. The one under your email address...it says * Display Name:
on the idea of invites...what about cybernetic and RickJay?

Thanks!
I think both those guys are good posters. I think DrEasy would be a good addition as well.
And....
Aucklander is a good poster IMHO as well...

If I could Nominate Kris. I always enjoy reading his posts.
BTW - Im formerly known as Robb and Robb99. I brought the YNOT game to the Jays Forum a few years ago. CaptainBolduke will remember as he Won a Jays Jersey. I tried running the game again last year, but got into a squabble with one of the mods so I decided to Start a new name - Robinhoodrules. I believe Adam and TLIN have let the game go to pot now.

Yes Robb I do remember you of course. The Halladay jersey is hanging up in my closet right now. I have actually wore it to a couple Jays games now that I live in TO.
Regrading inviting Kris.... I PMed him last week, but I haven't gotten a response.

I brought the YNOT game to the Jays Forum a few years ago. On the subjekt of YNOT...I was toying with the idea of bringing YNOT to the MLB board somehow, but couldn't figure out how to involve lots of teams in the questions (to interest lots of posters to check out the rest of the threads on the board) and then I've also become more and more uninterested with bringing life to the MLB board over there. Yes, I'm aware we don't have an MLB board here. I'm not the greatest with creating sub-folders...as evident by footballboards
