fpliii, so you bought this site? The Domain is yours?

Post by Master Spade »

If so, thank you! Unlike others here who only seem to complain(I've read a couple threads where people say they don't like the "Look"!! LOL!!), I'll just be thankful someone took the time, and is still doing so, to give us a place to keep the ESPN NBA General Message Board posters together!

If the domain is yours, then does that mean we can't be "Reported" and taken down by those DUMB-ASSES that take these message boards WAY too seriously?


Also, what is this "Thank" feature? Is it basically the same thing as "Liking" someones post?

Nice to see someone show appreciation for fplii's work and all of the positives about this place... amazing that people can find things to complain about.

This is correct. We actually owned the domain from the beginning, but it was the hosting that was the issue. As long as the board was on ProBoards' servers, we were under their dominion. Now we own the hosting bandwidth, so we cannot be taken down.

Be sure to thank jj as well, he kept the board afloat for god only knows how long.

True, jj kept us together as long as he could with all those DUMB-ASSES being Report happy.


How about that "Thank" feature? Is it basically the same as "liking" someones post on other boards?

Yeah. On the homepage you can view the most thanked people. Also, at the top of your screen there are links to the Thanks Toplist (everyone's Thanks numbers) and Thanks List (most thanked posts).

The "Who quoted me?" link will show a list of every time you're quoted, sorta like notifications on ProBoards.

Lastly, check out your User Control Panel to change your settings. You can also set your theme in there (under styles, I think in Board Preferences or some similar subheading).

Yes, fplii, I thank you and JJ for keeping the board afloat despite the desperate attempts by Bulls fans and their apologists to get us shut down.

And, on a side note, i am glad fplii that you have an active board to run finally.

I didn't know that was the deal... right on, fpliii. You and jj have kept this community of misfits together.

Props to you both

Good to see people are actually thankful now!


Only thing this site needs now is more traffic. We should all try to recruit more posters. Let's do our part!
