Remember if you are using a mobile device to check out both the mobile and desktop views of the site.
I find the desktop version better even while on my phone.
..and as always; thank you to everyone for MOFGA - Making Our Forum Great Again.

I'd be interested in knowing how new members found there way here if they feel so inclined.

It’s a slow process, but we are creeping up the search engine lists.
If anyone remembers seeing “ourbraves” and uses that in a search we show up and we are moving up with other search terms.
Hopefully we still have other members spreading the word when they have a chance.
We are almost up to 50 members now. My question would be to those who have joined, but haven’t posted much. I would like to know what it would take to get you to make more posts/comments. Remembering the old bored, in my opinion we’ve actually had better content than we had there, and virtually none of the trollish behavior and other BS.
Now of course that is just my opinion, and it might not be shared by everyone... and I am always looking for suggestions to improve everyone’s experience.

Back in the day when I dabbled in web development Meta Tags used to help but you had to have the right words. Not sure that they are that helpful in today's environment.

They probably were, are, and will always be lurkers. They might post a little, but they come here mainly just to read up on Braves fans opinions and just get caught up on some Braves news. That's what I gathered from the old bored anyways, from the ones that made very few posts. Two reasons I didn't join earlier were because when I got the invitation, the actual bored was hidden from seeing anything. It was just a freeforum website page, but I wasn't allowed to see threads. When they shut down the old bored, and searched in my history and found it again, I was able to see all the threads. Also I didn't know you created it. The second reason I didn't join earlier is because I hate the process of signing up with emails so I was just procrastinating. If I was able to see how the forum worked though, I would have joined earlier, I was instantly happy seeing how everything works here.

Oh yeah I have a big suggestion. Is there anyways you can change the default avatar. It just creeps me out. I mean it could be a good thing, it was so creepy to me I changed it after my first couple of posts. I mean it will only be bad to me if there will be lots of people with that default avatar.

I generally dont let people keep the default. If they don’t choose one, I choose one for them.
The past week though I have been incredibly busy with some projects and just getting here to check on registration applications and to update the news headlines and live game links has been difficult.

Nice job HMF...I watched for a few weeks to see if the nastiness and nonsense followed you over, and of course it appears it didn't....I especially like the separation of baseball and "other stuff", and it seems like you hit a home run with this.

Thanks pap... I tried to note all the complaints about the other place and make sure we addressed them here. Most of the credit though goes to the members who have embraced what is being attempted here; to have an entertaining and engaging conversational format that maintains a civil and friendly tone.

Welcome back PAP to the new and better board without all the nonsense.
