Huh, and here I thought it was for the natural rivalry with the Buffalo Sabres.

how do i start a fantasy league

Read the threads in the "New Leagues" thread under the fantasy section. Plus new rules say you need to be a member of a fantasy league for at least one year.

You guys have to start identifying the hockey players.

Absolutely...been a problem throughout the thread. Hockey is not as popular as the three major sports. Soccer players...forget it.

Really? Polls and discussions in the pasts seem to reveal that it's possibly the most popular sports on the boards. In the theme of double standards though, maybe people should also post the names of football players, because I have no idea who they are either.

Just curious: how does banning work? When you're banned, can you still lurk? Is your IP and/or email blocked from signing up for a new account?

On the computers that you're signed in, it just shows you a screen that says you aren't allowed to view any content and you can't sign out. (From when I was suspended.)

What's the problem with 2 accs if neither of them is banned, nor have a reasonable offense to do so?

The bigger question is why have two accounts? What purpose does it serve that's not shady?

There is an exception to the dual accounts rule. The screen name changing program no longer functions, so if you REALLY want a new user name make a second account and state something to the effect of "I wanted a new name, so I made a new account, the old one will no longer be used." Outside of that? I can't see a point to having two accounts. Other then to deceive people in some way.

And don't change your email settings on the site, it'll get your account stuck in validation and you won't be able to do anything with it. But then you'd have to create a new account.

How do I view previous topics on a member's profile past the first page?

Pretty sure they only keep a certain amount under that tab, so that there's no second page.

I'm sure this has already been asked, but I can't post a new topic in the Sports Logos section, even though I validated my account. Any reason why this would be?

you need a few posts before you can start a new topic.

Why does my signature get scaled down in spite meeting the size requirements?

It wants you to add the Senators jersey to it

Didn't the last baseball team here fail so badly it never got onto the diamond?

I remember being something like this with the Voyageurs, who then disappeared from history.

Only 140 seats available in three sections, from the coyotes I'm impressed

Who is that? I'll guess and say Wade Redden?

Although there really wouldn't be anything to stop new members from posting on the concept section besides shipping the thread to the graveyard, but they'd still be coming in.

Also, we need to think about how not all new members are trolls or spammers; and some people might not get to the level of concept making that you would desire with this idea without the C&C from the board helping them. Isn't that what part of the concepts is about anyway?

I don't think this ideas really a good one, partly because you'd just be cutting down on the people who just want some good help on their projects or just some feedback to help them improve, not to mention the people who are actually good at this stuff without a previous account on the boards. There'd be a lot fewer good members coming into the boards over time if this becomes a thing IMHO.

For the sake of curiosity, is the screen we got the one people get when they get suspended?

I remember it looking a bit different. You also recieve an email if you actually are suspended.

I never got an email

LOL tweet from Coyotes:

Halfway thru OT, chants of Let's Go #Coyotes met w/ chants by the #NHLJets contingent. A playoff-like atmosphere at tonight's game.

Wow, the sound of two people must be deafening.

We dont have the infrastructure (proper sized football specific stadiums) to host a World Cup. We can host the 2015 Womens World Cup because of the size of the tournament. Most games are played in Toronto, Vancouver and Edmonton. A World Cup should showcase the entire country not just pockets. I would love to see it here but doubt it for 1

2018 or 2022. The CSA is planning on bidding for the 2026 World Cup. That annoucement was made in February. They better start building football specific stadiums with 40,000+ capacity now even to be looked at.

But think of the home-pitch advantage when we play in Tuktoyaktuk!

How do you add a poll to a topic?

How do you get a member title? Not to be bothersome, just wondering.

^who are they?

If you ask an Oilers fan, they'll say they don't know.

CANADA FEST 2014! WOOOOOOO!

That one girl in the right looks exited.

Did I say exited? I meant drunk.

These two players are quickly falling into the "I'm not even surprised anymore" category

There's not a mechanic per say on the boards that will reject anyone under 13 from joining if they say they are in fact underage, but there's an internet rule about parent consent or something that doesn't allow people under 13 to join internet forums like this one.

So they can join the site, but they're just not allowed to, really.

Re: Torin's member title [i feel like an Oilers fan]: That's rough, man.

It's the Hemsky effect.

Did the age requirements for signing up change? Not being snarky, actually asking.

Fairly sure it's always been 13.

Not to be snarky either, but how does someone who's been here less than a year know what's always been?

Snark intended, but maybe someone more experienced with the Boards said it a little while ago...

Even though he wasn't the biggest name at the deadline, Hemsky still looks out of place after all those years with the oilers.

I have looked, but to no avail. There are no pictures of Halak in a Sabres uniform.

Yup, this is about the best you'll get, still looks odd though:
