Thought it was odd to see a few JMU fans in the registration queue - georgia_tech_swagger - 01-08-2013 12:09 PM

If you guys get the joint jumpin' we'll paint this place JMU colors and move CAAbbs into the main group with the other active boards.


Some examples of skinned active boards:

http://odu.csnbbs.com --> Old Dominion
http://acc.csnbbs.com --> ACC
http://memphis.csnbbs.com --> Memphis



We've got tons of active boards including:

General: Sports Bar, Spin Room
Conference Boards: ASun, ACC, B1G, Big East, CUSA, MAC, Sun Belt
Team Boards: ETSU, Campbell, Cincinnati, Memphis, Rice, UAB, Kent State, NIU, Toledo, EMU, CMU, WMU, UALR, ODU, Louisville, and probably a few others I'm forgetting.

The MWC, Big 12, and C7 boards also recently hopped up, and there are some A-10, MVC, and OVC fans hanging around trying to get their boards going.



04-cheers

Got a question, can each board be moderated by your own people? I know this has been a big deal with JMU posters in the past. I assume you can.

I would certainly be more inclined to use this site if you took the extra steps of having jmu.csnbbs.com and the colors were purple/gold.

Yep. While we do have supermods and admins they are really there to catch obvious stuff (spam) and provide backup when called upon.

What would you need to make the board say something like Home of the Duke Dog, JMUbbs and pic of the Duke Dog? Anything you need?

Just some time.

ha!

I wonder if having a purple background instead of a gray background would be too much? Maybe so.

EDIT: I kind of like the background color that the ACC uses. It is almost like a vegas gold background. I wonder how that would look with the purple trim?

Wanted to bump this. I believe the board is being worked on and hopefully in due time we will have a JMUbbs board, complete with JMU logos and so on.

What's the FBS pledge amount up to?

Re-reading the OP from GATechSwag, I wonder who and how many posters were or are in the queue or just out there watching? If you're lurking out there, sign up. This isn't the Zone firing squad, least not just yet. Help set the tone in here, join in. We have a huge fanbase and only a very small handful ever chime in.

It is certainly going. Right now we are up to $260,000+ for the overall 5 year stretch. I somewhat changed my strategy a little because I realized that the Duke Club really needs to grow now and get the extra $2M-$3M they would need to make it work financially. So I have been focusing on that more, than the actual pledge. Two phases. Phase 1-help grow the Duke Club and get the overall yearly total to $4M-$5M per year. But still take signatures and pledges if they only want to donate to the Duke, if... Phase two is about fully growing the pledge another $4M-$5M, for a grand total of $7M-which would give JMU about $10M a year.

I've noticed a lot of lurkers. It would be nice if more of them contributed more. Start threads, makes comments, etc...Maybe we need a controversial thread or something.

I lurk on these Boards to get some good information from what seems to be a number of well-informed posters. I think some successes in the athletics would certainly help get people talking but if it gets like some of the threads over at the Zone I've been seeing lately, I don't think the occasional lurkers like myself will join in. Just not worth the personal attacks I see over there on occasion. I'm all for giving someone a hard time when they deserve it in a good-natured manner and discussing our disagreements, but it seems to get really personal with some of the regulars.

Yep, that's why I'd like to see this place remain a little more civil. Of cousre that's not my call. It's almost like a long term marriage or something over there. Everyone knows each other and their positions so well, and often times they disagree. Well it's starts to be an ongoing argument instead of a discussion of different viewpoints.

Well, this board has been looking much more alive as of late. I think we just need to keep posting, keeping it civil, and more will follow.

Yea, let's hope but it's still not much of anything going on.

Question for someone- what's this "warning level" thing I have under my name/reputation thing? Is that normal, like a probationary period for a month or so, or is that special just for me? haha. Just noticed it, appears I'm @ defcon 0%. I guess that's good.

I'm assuming its for a mod to let you know how close you are to getting banned.
It is on my page too. They are watching you though, dunk! Better behave!
