Some questions I need answered!
:shock:
First of all what the hell happened that pissed off barnabas so bad. I was under the impression that was a temp site from the beginning. What happened?
Second thing. I've been in IM contact with many of you about making our site the best packer message board out there as well as offering other cool things that I as well as other people are working on. My question is this. IMO we should have a more is merrier approach. I think it would be best if we could get everyone from JSO as well as Packerchatters to defect to our new and incredibly awesome site when it is ready (no real hurry, better to do it right). We could distinguish ourselves as the originals somehow with a title or avatar, we've earned that, but can we protect ourselves from a hacking repeat of JSO if we become that popular?
I welcome people to IM me if they would prefer to discuss plans in private.
COOL :razz: :shock:

Nobody knows for sure really. The consensus seems to be that someone emailed UNF and told him that we were bad mouthing him over here (which of course we weren't). But that's just hearsay at this point.

Well, there obviously was a general feeling of betrayal, abandonment.
But also he specifically alleged that I decieved him about my intentions. Sorry for being tedious, but I want to get some facts on the table:
1. At outset, I told UNF that my intention for this forum was as a private discussion area, a replacement for all the emailing that was going on during the hacker attacks. I stuck to this priority, generally advocated keeping football talk at CE.
2. I also told him, right at the get go, that other people were going to want to talk about creating or moving to a new public site. And for this reason, he should not be a member, so that people could speak freely about their feelings about CE.
3. After a couple weeks, I temporarily gave UNF my username and password so he could have a look at the forum. This was a goodwill gesture on my part, so UNF had an idea of what we were up to.
4) A couple week after this, I notified UPN that we would be having a referendum in the coming month on opening a public forum. UPN responded blandly to the PM.
5) Yesterday, UPN sees that the site is very advanced, with a football forum already in place. (Although the site has not yet been publicly announced)
UPN accuses me of misleading him, acting secretively, stabbing him in the back.
