It's not stealing, it was just simply a great idea

hmm... i see problems in this too... would dotorg have a problem with it if the logo used one of their player patches?

Just remember your password?? On my comp the password is saved with the browser.... file-planet isn't that much of a hassel unless there's a lineup for the file you want...

Everyone who wants to find anything. If Andrew and the mods weren’t moving theses topic’s, the forum would sooner or later become a maze where you would have to look in every single section to find what you were actually looking for.

This isn’t the mods fault. It’s just some members that not always post at the right place..

Actually he should be since it proves that he does he job when moving these topic that shouldn’t be in the blablabla section etc to the right section intead..

Actually.. it proves that he has a lot of time to waste posting irellevant posts. Do you know how annoying it is for n00bs who come to this forum. Ask a question.. then come back to see Andrew has replied to their question.. they get excited open the thread.. to see "Topic move to" .. oh yay.. thanks for the help there Andrerw..... Is that doing a good job?

Delete the general & NBA section and keep the forum just about NBA live. Then I could almost garanty that there would be no looked threads, banning, flaming etc.

Ok James if this is true then I would like to know what you felt was not run well at .org. How are these boards easier to work than the ones at .org? Please do not respond in this thread as it is supposed to be about the NLSC. But as director of nbalive.org of course I am interested when people say they were not happy with things.. please email me at david@nbalive.org or you are welcome to post your thoughts at nbalive.org. Back on track..James wrote:The reason why I came to this site as an active compared to nbalive.org was because this site seemed better ran. It also had the downloads I wanted and I could easily work the boards here.

He should be encouraging you to post your questions on the forum.. so that when he answers your question everyone can see it and it helps more than 1 person..

While it is nice that Andrew responds to PM'd questions.. how does responding to the PM help others? He should be encouraging you to post your questions on the forum.. so that when he answers your question everyone can see it and it helps more than 1 person..

I wasn't criticizing it...I was just saying the NLSC should try and come up with it's own ideas as well.. I just think that too many people are just saying dotorg has this so put on NLSC too...I am not accusing anyone of stealing, just that NLSC should try to foster it's own ideas as well..
the staff at nbalive.org had no problem with the NLSC having rotating logos..

LOL, you really didn’t get my message with the smilies I did. I was not laughing about NLSC having dead links (which I haven’t seen btw) I was laughing about the comment since it came from you. I mean, wtf: The headdirector from nbalive.org aka nbad***.org complains about dead links etc. Say what?!
