Hey everyone, since the Packers season finished I was pretty busy with homework and also with starting to make my own site as a hobby. My site will be about general news / discussions etc ... anything you could think about. It's not a $$$ scam or a profitable intention that I'm going for just a site that people would come in and go just like packers home or yahoo or wtv just without the search engine ... well for now loll. Well the thing is this, this project will take me a good year and half just to launch it. So I decided before doing that I make a forum just to get things started, for the people to join along and be familiarized with each other so the day that my website goes up and running there would be some traffic at least ...

So I was wondering what I should name the forum. The forum won't be a forum that has a cost to it but the day that I will be launching my site it will be upgraded also.

So I need your help guys to put a name to my forum it's going to be http://******.proboards.com. What should I put in the ***** section as a name to my forum. Something that would catch an eye, attract members etc..., Ideas please.

The forum itself will be launched tonight, I'm just finalizing the final information's. So if anyone would like to join your all welcome.

*Msg to Zero* ---> I'm not stealing your members or in a competition with you lol.

BTW* If anyone would like to help me maintain the forum, I'd greatly appreciate it because I could need 2-3 people to help me out cause some days I might be busy with making the site and stuff.

BTW Zero if you got any tips I'd appreciate it a lot it will be my first site / forum bud. Give me some tips.

:thumbright: :thumbleft: Appreciate it guys.

If anyone wants to help me out e-mail me at: vartan_1986@yahoo.ca

I'll post the site of the forum a little later on if of course Zero allows me.

Thanks again everyone.

You should try and carve out your own niche. It will be way too difficult to maintain just a 'general' forum because, although on one hand it's available to everyone, in another sense there's nothing special about it to actually get people to come in. I would recommend getting a good idea on the format of your website and its target audience before making a forum. Suppose it IS successful and you attract a lot of members; well to appease your audience you will need to cater the website accordingly, and that limits your own creative ideas.

While there's nothing to stop you from developing a website based on the popularity of something in the forums, I'd find that a risky proposition.

i have a few sites if you want to check them out. I need to do some updates on the computer site but thats davezhayes.com and then the radio website is now ontheprowlradio.info feel free to check them out if you want.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Agree check out Hazers. He does a good job with Radio.

I would not go the general news route. The best thing to do is set up a site about something you are passionate about? Do you have a hobby that you love other than football?

Do what you love and love what you do. You will enjoy that site much more.

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (8h) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (8h) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (8h) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (8h) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (12h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (12h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (12h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (14h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (14h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (14h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (14h) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (14h) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (14h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (14h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (14h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (15h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (16h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (16h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (16h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (16h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (16h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (17h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (17h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (17h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (18h) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (18h) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (18h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (18h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (20h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (20h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (20h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (20h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (21h) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (21h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (21h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (21h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (21h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (21h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (21h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
beast (21h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
beast (21h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs
Zero2Cool (21h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
Zero2Cool (21h) : I literally just said it.
packerfanoutwest (21h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
Zero2Cool (21h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
Zero2Cool (21h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
packerfanoutwest (21h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
