Well, already our new staff is expanding. We're really happy that TheMalcolmConnection has agreed to handle all our graphic designs for the new site. He's shown us some cool ideas in the past that we'll finally get to use. Welcome aboard TMC!

[QUOTE=TAFKAS]Well we're still in the planning stage. But, for example, my Redskins Rewind column will continue but on the new site. Sheriff Gonna Getcha will provide previews of the upcoming opponents-with stat breakdowns, offensive and defensive philosophies, and matchups to watch. The new site (name still to be determined, checking availability of certain names) will not depend on The Washington Post or any other mainstream outlet for game recaps. We will have our very own Brud Lee at all home games, and hope to recruit some of you to cover away games.


We all can't say enough good things about TheWarpath.net, but the essential purpose of the new site is to allow you the fan to really speak your mind. More so in essay form, then the current dialogue form. To give as many people as possible their own "projects" for lack of a better word they will call their own.

8588, to answer some of your questions. Op-ed basically means an opinion piece. Usually by guest panelists. For example, we may invite someone from a Jets site to give his view on how Ramsey is doing and what his thoughts were on the Redskins-Jets preseason game. I hope I answered your original content question above. But basically, yes members original thoughts. The status quo is what you see now of this site. The new site will just dig a bit deeper and basically we'll be our own media and newswire.[/QUOTE]

if it what i think it will be, i like the idea... as one who tends to ramble or wander a bit off topic at times, or simply talk too damn much, it might provide the ideal forum for this kind of expanded screed... without feeling the need to confine it to a short response.

if that is not quite what you had in mind then, as rosanne rosanna-danna said.... nevermind

[QUOTE=BrudLee]TAFKAS is being a little kind.

While I've certainly enjoyed my stay here, it became apparent after this season and our partnership with Tony McGee that thewarpath.net could enjoy a larger media profile. Our discussions with Mr. Kyer (Matty) have made it clear that he thinks that's [I]impossible[/I] unless some of the "free spirits tone it down" (I still have that email, Mr. Kyer). In that spirit, I was asked to either stop writing the formerly trademarked Warpath Power Poll, or change its content to something a little less abrasive.

My belief is that the tone of the forum [U]I[/U] joined fiive years ago, and moderated for three years, had room for a little lighthearted fun. It turns out the guy who signs the checks disagrees, so I'm gone. Fortunately, TAFKAS and the Sheriff agree, and I couldn't ask for a more energetic team to be on.[/QUOTE]

kind of like what happens in the political world.. the bomb throwers like samuel adams are usefull at first but it becomes difficult to accomodate some folk who live in the purity of the edge once the humdrum of daily life settles in.. neither good nor bad, you need both types but friction often occurs..

Thanks TAFKAS. I tried to play it off as long as I could. Being that Summo and certain others have taken sides, I will be the official designer for the new site. Hopefully soon I'll have a new logo and will be working on new avatars which will be voted on by all the new members.

Please feel free to PM me with any ideas or requests. Since we are in the planning stage, now is the time to get your idea chosen.

I will be taking requests for backgrounds, avatars and we will even have a new section devoted completely to AIM icons, some that will include animation.

Since the Skins have few if any first day picks and will surely trade the one they do have away, I propose we have a draft and split up the members on the day of the NFL draft. We could snake that bad boy and split up the talent evenly.

[quote=12thMan]I'm sure Matty has some in mind, but let throw my two cents in:

Schneed
Malcolm
FP??
Guy
PSU[/quote]

Part of the reason I like the current Mod team is because they all have distinct personalities, and their own opinions. 60% of this list is Matty clones, and if every post by Matty is followed by a new Mod post saying something like "I agree with Matty" or "hahahaha, Matty :cheeky-sm " I'm gonna yak.

Right, and that's why many of us are leaving. Being that he has "The Ego", please note the use of capitals, we were forced to break apart. Brud is a bit more disillusioned than I because I'm fairly new (time-wise) around here. Since this site will be mostly user-defined, we won't have as much parrot-like behavior.

But please also note, the Parrot icon does remain MY personal copyright, even though I do give Matty permission to use it.

Unfortunately Cooley, what's done is done. I would gladly welcome you to the new site and I've made a commitment to TAFKAS and others and honestly am about 50% done with a lot of the buttons and icons for the new site.

Thanks shally. As far as I'm concerned I have no problem if we were even "the brother site" to this one, but since this only has recently been brought to my attention, I think that the problems TAFKAS, Brud and the others have with Matty have started to run deep.
