Move back to HW?

If we can indeed get a banner similar to the one I posted, it will need to direct somewhere on the forum (I don't think we want it to go to the old HWL site or to the quick one Fanpuck made to try and get us on fhockey). Rather than just do a direct link to the HWL forums, I think it would be worth linking it to a specific post with all the how-to information for potential new GM's (this would be topped in the HWL boards as well).

So, if everyone else thinks this makes sense, what type of stuff should we have in said post?

I got some mad skills with Paint. The pics of Tlusty and Maca or Tlusty with Trizz are just amazing examples of what I can do.

More Benelux!

In other news, I don't know that I can remain a member in this league guys, move or not. Things have amped up on my end, life wise, and I really don't have the time at all, especially with 70hr work weeks starting immediately and school on the horizon.

That said, I still vote to move back to HW.
Maca don;t gooooooooo!

Also, why are we waiting for the pre-season to move back to HW? Let's go once the cup is awarded.

This forum is all dark and scary,

I can work quicker to get the forums ready (I think Jets put the preseason because he knew I had a few things on my HW to-do list, this just being one of them) but I'm not sure I'd have everything accomplished that I want in terms of changing settings, clean-up, etc done within a few days. Depending on what weekend the draft is, I can shoot to have it ready for then. I'd like to have a few recent topics (whether they're sims, trade blocks, UFA offers, etc) posted before I open the full boards up publicly just so the perception of high activity is there.

(Note that I said full boards opened publicly, no longer will the sub-forums be hidden...unless someone can tell me why they were in the first place. I'm hoping that as well will help attract some interest, though we'll have to put something new in each of the forums before opening it up.)

I think it was mainly because the league was such a close knit group that they knew people could handle semi-offensive stuff and we were allowed to get away with more stuff than regular members were.

That makes sense. With all the turnover lately and the fact we're trying to attract new GM's (a lot of them), I'm not sure that situation applies any more. That's the most reasonable explanation I've heard from anyone on that though.

well, ya, actually Sakiqc explained outright to me that HWL was taking more place than HW so that he had to hide HWL.

he didn't want / like that on any given day a thread about trading T.J. Oshie away from Minny outnumbered by a wide margin the thread about A.K. criticism of J.M.

Seriously?

That's hilarious.

(Both that it happened and that he had a problem with it)

That's totally understandable to me. Had I not been a member of the league, I would be extremely annoyed about having to sift through all the HWL stuff to get to the actual HW stuff.

Shouldn't have to though. If you want Habs stuff, you click on the Habs Talk forum...or the Bulldogs one, etc. The only people it would affect is those who use the Today's New Posts feature (which is now called the Portal). I know you used that one in the past, I'm not sure how many others did then or do now though (no way to track it either).

Exact. I stopped using the Today's tab when I joined HWL and even forgot about its existence at some point.

Ohhh, thats what Fanny was talking about.

Yeah, I never use it either. I'm like Joe, I forget it's even there.
