Lol! Well, we could make the mask really hard to earn. Helmet - 2000 points Ha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like that's a member action issue is not a website issue? Those things exist on here, they just get dusty after a while and there aren't members who are stirring them up very frequently. As a suggestion, what about t-shirts or stickers or mask vinyls or hoodies or other merch/schwag we could buy and be walking/skating promotional tools? 19 hours ago, TheGoalNet said: Does anyone else want swag?

Maybe we should just start a thread we can curate with training videos. I think that would be very helpful to more than just myself. Thanks for the discussion.

Not to detract from this site whatsoever, but have you guys checked out Maria's goalie training group on Facebook? There's loads of useful posts there that I've found really helpful.

I mentioned that to the mods the other day, but I’m not an IT guy. Like painfully not. But it’s something to look into. Cost is probably the biggest limiting factor. Without a lot of help early on with BB stuff from @IPv6Freely and @SaveByRichter35 the background would still probably be blue or the quoting format would be a dumpster fire... but in regards to mobile, I do 90% of my BB time on the phone... it seems fair to me, what is missing? Unfortunately, a BB isn’t really a phone friendly concept? If there’s another more friendly forum of a another topic, can you send me a link to do some recon? No need for an app. The mobile version of the site is great. We stopped using Tapatalk for forum access after we upgraded to IPS4 on MSH because the mobile site worked so well. I just added the Unread Posts page to my phone home screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind any of the other ads but the dropdown ad at the top is always in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquilzz Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Does anyone else thing there are just too many sub-forums to keep up with? It just seems messy and inefficient to me. If I don't check this page after a few days and can't go by latest, I have to click on a hundred different things to make sure I haven't missed and important leaks/news/sick gear. I just think the layout of this forum in the earlier days was MUCH better. At least for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aircanuck Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 @coopaloop1234 Yes, I have to repeat, hit that darn unread tab. It really makes things easy on me. What's new, what are we talking about, one tab, easy peasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IPv6Freely Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 For sure, and the unread content page is what I bookmark. You can even set it to exclude areas you don’t care about. Not super important here, but on the other site I’m on I exclude roller hockey threads because I don’t care about that. I do totally agree that the navigation can be a bit wonky as far as what forum a topic is in (I found it could often be in any of 2-3 different places), but dumping the manufacturers corner definitely helped in that regard.

ThatCarGuy Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I would like to submit a new rule for the "Show off your Gear" thread. I would like the photo requirements to now include; "a household appliance must be included in the frame of the picture.
