Need some Wizards fans 

Post#1 » by Gil-Zero » Tue Aug 25, 2009 5:34 pm

Hey guys, I'm new here and look forward to making this my second primary forum to post at (preferably just the Wizards forum). On my other forum, which I'm sure many have heard of, we only have about 4 or 5 active Wizards fans at the moment, and I feel pretty outnumbered haha. The board is:

http://www.otrbasketball.com/forums/

This isn't spam, but just offering a secondary message board to post at. Many members of Real GM already actively post there. It's a nice community and already the largest active basketball forum on all of IPB. You may have heard of the owner before, who goes by Real Deal on that forum. If you decide to join, I'd appreciate if you told them Gil-Zero recruited you. If it is looked down upon to post links to other websites, then by all means close this topic. I'm just offering a secondary board to post at where people can stand out more with what they have to say instead of being shadowed by the billions of members on other official NBA forums. Thanks for reading.

Standing out isn't an issue here. If you're insightful, entertaining, or even uniquely stupid, you will get noticed. IBTL.

I understand. I just wanted some more Wizards fans on the forum since I feel almost alone, and will feel alone when we celebrate our success during the upcoming season. :)

Good-luck over there, is that your forum? No-offense, but your solicitation sounded canned, with the only the name of the team changed. Why would you post over there and not here? RealGm is the place to be 8-)

This board is not to be used to advertise for other services or message boards. I've reported your original post to management. Do not do it again.

don't post other forums on this forum just because this is the biggest basketball forum on the internet.

Probably a lame forum that you made anyway,

Um thanks but I don't own it, I'm just an active member and recruiting more members as a favor to the owner. And the message isn't solicited, I'm just a Wizards fan and we currently have one of the smallest fan bases over there. Don't need to be rude about it, just don't post if you're not interested. :-?

You got some balls, like Honda going to Ford H.Q. to sell cars.

Gil-Zero, feel free to stick around here. RealGM is a great place to talk hoops and this particular board has some great posters and discussion.

However, as has been said, recruiting for another message board on RealGM is against the TOS (Terms of Service) so I'm going to lock this thread up.
