New Message Board - cougaruteforum.com

We are pleased to announce the formation of a new message board:

http://www.cougaruteforum.com

and we would like to extend a warm welcome to our many friends on CG. We hope you will join us. It is our intention to follow a light style of moderation and we hope to foster an environment for interesting and thoughtful discussion on sports, politics, religion, and current events.

In terms of administration, it is our goal to operate the new board as a community. In that spirit, we have formed an executive committee that will provide input on board management. Policies are still evolving, but we hope to establish an atmosphere of democracy, fairness, and community input.

Since this is a new board, it will take a while to tidy things up. Please be patient. For example, the URL for the new board has not been distributed to all domain name servers so you may have trouble with the link shown above for a few days. If so, please try the following link for direct access.

Obviously to exclude Wyoming fans. The name says it all. Open community my ass.

I don't catch your meaning.

It's these damn exclusionary Mormons.

Since there is now an awkward silence of sorts, maybe I will be the first to address the elephant in the room. I make these comments as an outsider, since I was neither part of the inception of CG nor of CUF.

Also, I notice that everyone is still online here and many are likely PMing. Why not bring it out into the open, air it out, and then see where the new direction takes everyone. This will have to happen eventually, so why not now?

This seems to be an instance wherein the community has banded together to make a statement. Does it make any sense at this point to clarify exactly what that statement is? Lest mistakes here repeat themselves over there?

PS Will CUF have big avatars?

I think he's baiting you about your sexual preference. I wouldn't take it.

I see now the need for a new forum. CB's bigotry has infiltrated CG in the form of DDD.

I don't know what's going on.

And maybe Mike's being a dick.

But it seems Mike deserves some patience, since he's put a lot of effort in making this board what it is today, which is a pretty damn good board.
