I said I can't give any hints.  :)

On a seperate note, I've added new videos to the Segment Openers page of the site. All new videos are marked as such.

Also, I have some ideas for new things to add to the forum, so stay tuned!  B) :twothumbs:
Not the format TWCC has, right? I really don't care much for their new format, so I hope it's not coming here.

Minor typo: The opener listed as "Weekly Planner Opener from 03-05" is actually the Weekend Planner opener from 03-05.

What's the problem still? We got rid of new members, and the one redundant forum under "TWC Classics." The only changes that remain are the split weather section, and new Wxstar FAQ/Info area. :blink:

If you don't care for the new format, why do you care if it comes here or not?

Bottom line is this Mike: First, I don't know much about what went on, so the likelihood that I'm going to duplicate something is not good. second, this is my forum and I'll run it as I see fit. I'm sure Matt and Tyler feel the same way about theirs. I think they would agree that you don't have to like anything we do, but if you want to visit our sites your going to have to live with it.

I've implemented the first of the changes. I've added an introduction board. I think such a board is a fine way for new members to introduce themselves and become acquainted with everyone.

Yikes. That was the first new forum we created that went based on it's popularity (or un-popularity, if you will). :o

How were you able to gauge its popularity so quickly? You gauge the popularity of an intro board by seeing whether your newbies post in it. It takes longer than a few hours to determine that. I too will remove it if it turns out to be unpopular, but that will only be the case (for me) if newcomer's aren't using it, not if current members are complaining about it.
