Commish Lounge Subforum?

fhomess · 01-30-2008, 04:51 PM

I was thinking it might be useful to have a place where league commishes can share thoughts and questions related to the in's and out's of running a league. Things like website management and handling roster exports.

Corsairs · 01-30-2008, 04:58 PM

I couldn't agree with this idea more. Any time I need to ask a question about online management now I'm forced to use the general forum, and since most people aren't going to know the answer the post tends to get lost in the shuffle. A forum where commissioners can "talk shop" would be extremely welcome indeed.

Great idea. Not only for the help, but a great resource for solutions tips etc.

This should be a priority.

cnield · 01-30-2008, 07:00 PM

I'd definitely love to have something like this as well.

DWK · 01-30-2008, 09:54 PM

I'd be all for this

mikev · 02-26-2008, 04:15 PM

bump!

No love for the online commish? C'mon!

Great idea, and I can not only host a forum, but also a live chat room, if an off board site is considered. I am in process of settin up a league and do need suggestions from more experienced Commish's. Chat and forum could be private so only those in Commish group can participate, if that would be desired.

I already have a secondary chat room up at soxxcountry.com, Duffys Annex in user menu so you must register to even see it.

mikev · 03-11-2008, 11:33 AM

Who do we have to disembowel to get a forum?

spot · 03-11-2008, 02:08 PM

I'm all for it!

Corsairs · 03-11-2008, 02:37 PM

Can I cast two votes for this idea?

WWBL Commissioner · 03-11-2008, 03:23 PM

This is a good idea

mikev · 03-12-2008, 10:58 AM

I'm going to keep bumping this until we get our subforum. WE HAVE BEEN IGNORED FOR TOO LONG!

Recte44 · 03-12-2008, 02:07 PM

I'll PM Andreas, Markus, and Steve B. How about that?

mikev · 03-12-2008, 04:52 PM

I already PM'd Steve yesterday.

Markus Heinsohn · 03-13-2008, 03:26 AM

Will be done

Corsairs · 03-13-2008, 09:54 AM

Cheers Markus!

snnort · 03-13-2008, 12:46 PM

I didn't get in here quick enough to give a +1 until after Markus Heinsohn chimed in that he'd do it... but I CERTAINLY agree this is a long time coming and it's a wonder why none of us thought of this years ago.

Posting in the General Forum... a question or suggestion qwery often regarding commishing OR simming often DOES get lost in the shuffle.

Glad to see Markus Heinsohn replied with a possitive to get this done.

Markus has really kicked it into overdrive in the posting department. That beta forum must be hopping.
