Cleaned up the format some. Unless there's a riot in the cell block, I'm going to keep it as is.

ATTENTION: WE ARE SWITCHING HOSTING COMPANIES DUE TO THE REDICULOUS AMOUNT OF PROBLEMS WE'VE BEEN FACING OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS, CULMINATING IN A TWO DAY OUTTAGE JUST BEFORE THE SEASON STARTS. THE BOARD SHOULD BE AVAILABLE FOR THE NEXT 12-24 HOURS BEFORE WE MAKE THE SWITCH TO OUR NEW HOST, BUT ANY POSTS MADE AFTER THIS ARE NOT LIKELY TO BE RETAINED.

THIS WILL HOPEFULLY BE THE LAST HICCUP WE HAVE FOR A LONG, LONG TIME.

Did some early postseason pruning/cleaning house. Consolodated several forums gathering dust/cobwebs and organized others to hopefully make things a little bit easier to follow and keep up on. Kicked off the 07-08 Bar and Grill (can't get away from the '06 season soon enough) ..

As part of my offseason cleaning, I'm pruning back the membership list, removing all the 'test' accounts and accounts I suspect were/are just registration-bots. If I've accidentally removed anyone who is a professional lurker (which certainly wasn't intentional on my part), please either speak up publically or reregister and send me an email/PM. Apologies if anyone has a visit with the Turk that didn't deserve it.

Removed a bunch of spam posts, and blocked the IP and email server name.

Just a reminder. If we get spam posts, don't click the links provided. The sites have the ability to track referers and then we show up as a good place for further spam. Just let it lay and let T or I know and we'll fix em un.

We've been getting an unusually high number of spam-bots registering and while we've taken precautions to keep them from posting their various spam threads on the board, it is a bit annoying to have to be deleting so many of these things daily. So, just a friendly reminder.. DON'T FEED THE BEARS.

If you click on any of the links in their profiles, it sends them a message that the click originated from this website, and they send more of their a-hole spam bot buddies this way to register. So, please don't.

Well, looks like the spam bots are getting smarter. Sorry for the inappropriate content on the site the last day or so with these idiots. Guess it's time to update the security software and see about trying to deny them access. Man, what a pain in the ass.

OK, I'm officially past my limit of willingness to deal with these bot shitheads, so I've disabled posting for all new accounts until we can get this resolved. If anyone is attempting to register a new account, they will have to PM me for activation. Anyone that does not PM me for activation will have their account deleted.

Closed 09-10 season Bar and Grill, opened new 10-11 Bar and Grill... here's hoping that a new forum / thread = a new team and winning tradition!
