I like Winnipuck as well.

As mentioned its more about the users. Also make sure you have great mods. A mod should be fair and very patient. And of course you'll need good technical help. I remember when Scotty would be fixing problem after problem here years back. It won't be easy.

Yes, I am experimenting with it to see what I can do. I'll be working on it this week. Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated. If the admin has any problem with the name, I will change it. Mainly I just want it to look presentable and professional, but nothing too extravagant.
I've registered. Let me know when I can start posting, and I'll give you some feedback on how it goes.

Why do all the work to build a fan base on a free site? Run by someone else, earning revenue for all your hard work, and not guaranteed to be reliable or manageable as it grows.

Luckily the CalgaryPuck creators didn't think like this.

If you think this is good you should have seen it a few years ago. The quality of posts was much more consistant. Maybe I cant comment because I lurked for far longer than ive been a poster but it seems like the posters were quick to flame bad posts back then and now it seems like the post quality has to be much worse to warrent flaming.

Nope.

Ourjets is already in use. Incidentally, members at ourbombers gave birth to it in June.

Good point. That's actually a great aidea

I'll run it by the boys. Turns out we decided on hockeyonmaroons.com (name was not my choice....lol), which is where the old Winnipeg Arena was located. If anyone wants to check it out and offer advice, we can really use it. In the meantime, i'll be keeping Winnipegpuck open as my own project, so feel free to post. Thanks so much to all at CP for all your advice!
