• coyotes22

  

  I just had a stroke of genius!!! (that does not happen much, ask around!!! lol)
  
  In light of all the happenings this week. I say this, my fellow brothers of the FREEHUDDLE World!!! We need our "Founding Fathers" to write up a Declaration Of Independence!!! And proclaim this, the 12th day of November of Our Lord, 2009, INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!!!! Just as those Pilgrims before us, left the clutches of a tyrant the Queen, so have we left the Clutches of an evil Empire from here on out, known as JJHuddle!!!!
  
  Let us rise up now, and behold,,,,,,,,,, OUR INDEPENDENCE!!!!!!
  
  Long LIVE FREEHUDDLE.COM!!!!!!

  What would I like to see? That this site doesn't change their mind in a few years and decide to charge us, then go free and back to charging again...

  Keep mods accountable for their actions. That's all I have for now.

  I'm glad you brought that up.
  
  Idk how it was on the huddle, but here there is a "Mod Log". Everytime one of the mods does something it is logged, along with our names. So say I got bored and deleted a few threads, it would be in the log, therefore holding me accountable. I don't plan on doing anything like that, but it is nice to have.

  GET IN THE RING!
  
  We used to have the "Ring" when we played barnyard basketball when I was growing up. When two people started acting like douches, they had to get in a ring of hay bales, and duke it out, then return to the court.
  
  If two idiots on the freehuddle get into it, move those two to a "GET IN THE RING" forum, and let them go at it.

  I'll be making a thread on Friday in the HS Football forum for nothing but updates on scores for everyone to post on throughout Friday and Saturday. Should I start asking for people to text me the scores for the games too?

  Glad to hear about this one. For those of us out of state it will make it easier to get scores

  I would just like a work safe area to peruse.... edit thread titles with NSFW or may become NSFW please.
• tigerballonline

  Maybe a forum to post live action photos, from any sport that you go to. I suggest everyone donates some money to the site even if it is only a dollar. While JJ was forcing it, i like the fact that there is a donate button where you can choose to donate. One thing we all need to remember these sites cost money. Especially as they grow and use more bandwidth. Even if a person donates a dollar a year without being asked it will keep the site running.
• ernest_t_bass

  

  For those people who wish to donate, here is what I suggest.
  
  Quarterly reports? Does that make it a corporation, and we are the shareholders? I would donate, but only if I got to see where the money was going.
  
  Not that I don't like Justin, he's as cool as the underside of a pillow, or as cool as a witches tit in an iron bra... but I would like to see where it is going... does that make sense?
• newarkcatholicfan

  

  Maybe next season the site could get those hard-core fans to write game reports on the games they attend and maybe have it set up like the other huddle did that a game pass will be waiting for them at the gate.
  
  I can remember the year or two the other huddle did this there were some good stories on a lot of different teams so much better than the post that read congrats or nice.
  
  Maybe next season you could run a contest and the winner can get a shirt.

  I see my SEOPS friend newarkcatholicfan has found his way over to this website!
• NWIndianNation01

  

  Like I said before...we really need to find a good way to do a scoreboard...that will keep a lot of the old paypayhuddle members here and bring in new people....especially if it is something easily accessible on Blackberry's and iPhones.
  
  Maybe start a Forum for it as well...simillar to paypay.
• ernest_t_bass

  

  ^^^^^^^^
  I agree with this dudes statement, 101.5%!
• Cleveland Buck

  

  I might work on a script with a scrolling scoreboard that could be at the top of every page. We will have a scoreboard in one way or another.

  Got it boss.
• fan_from_texas

  What formatting is available in posts? Can we post tables? Or any sort of HTML? I'd love to be able to post tables here, as that would make game previews MUCH easier.
• OneBuckeye

  

  There is a option if you go to post reply to insert formatted code or insert formatted PHP code, but I don't know what that means. I would think that you could post tables somehow with that option.

  Here's a draft. Edit away:
  
  When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the interwebs, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nick Mangold entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
  
  We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all posters are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are the right to post without arbitrary interference from overzealous moderators, the right to type “sucks” and “overrated” without being censored, the right to refuse to read crappy “premium” content, and the right to post without paying an ever-changing tax.
  
  --That to secure these rights, web forums are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, -- That whenever any Forum becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to create a new Forum, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Happiness and Continued Posting.
  
  Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Forums long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
  
  But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to leave such a Forum, and to provide a new one for their enjoyment.
  
  --Such has been the patient suffering of these Huddlers; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Huddle. The history of the present JJ and His Huddle Cronies is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these Huddlers. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
  
  To wit,
  
  *He has arbitrarily enforced rules, with no regard to the facts at hand;
  *He has appointed moderators, with no apparent oversight of their functions;
  *He has prevented us from engaging in reasonable discourse;
  *He has repeatedly censored our language, including such vile words as “overrated”;
  *He has attempted to charge us money to post on a forum after ensuring its freedom;
  *He has banned numerous erudite and reasonable Huddlers; and
  *He has turned our fanatical and compulsive posting and fact gathering to personal financial gain through the sale of the Huddle.
  
  In every stage of these Oppressions We Have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Forum Owner, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant to the 1th degree, is unfit to be the Moderator of a free people. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold the Forum Owner, as we hold the rest of mankind, an Enemy in War, in Peace a Friend.
  
  We, therefore, the Representatives of the New Huddle Order, appealing to Nick Mangold for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of the FreeHuddle, solemnly publish and declare, that this Huddle is, and of Right ought to be Free; that it is Absolved from all Allegiance to the Old Huddle, and that all connection between them is, and ought to be totally dissolved.
  
  -- And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Nick Mangold, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.
  
  Signed:
  
  (representatives from each region on the Huddle)
  Fan_from_Texas, the esteemed representative from the Great State of Wisconsin.
