I read on redskins.com that they will be providing a means for us fans to interact with players and coaches(chats.) They also said they will be activating message boards on their site. What do you think of this? I like the idea of chatting with players and coaches, but do you think this will put a hurtin' on our forum board? I kind of like it here!

Has no impact on the warpath...people stick with what they are used to. Does anyone in here go to the ESPN or Washington Post "boards?" I don't.

mooby · 05-11-2005, 10:05 PM

hah. i didn't even know the washington post and espn had message boards. i like the idea of player and coach chats. i would participate in those. i would still be active here, too. i am active at a lot of forums. joining another wouldn't make me stop going to one.

I agree w/ Saden ( I like that new Avatar btw). I think people will go with somthing they are comfortable with. Almost everyone here is probaboly comfortable here, and there fore will continue to read and post here.

Not only that, I'm sure it will quickly become flooded with assholes and know-it-alls who only have enough internet savvy to go to redskins.com

skinsguy · 05-11-2005, 11:16 PM

I do like this forum! For one thing, it isn't hard on the eyes like extremeskins! I literally get headaches searching that forum.

CRT3 · 05-11-2005, 11:35 PM

My question is will they have Avatars?

mooby · 05-11-2005, 11:41 PM

yeah they might, im assuming. since they do make backgrounds for pc's, i wouldn't be suprised if they made avatars kinda like the ones here

TheMalcolmConnection · 05-11-2005, 11:45 PM

But nowhere near as sweet.

CooleyAsCanBe · 05-12-2005, 01:09 AM

I am limiting my number of posts just so I can keep the blue cap camp scrub avatar as long as possible.

Yeah CRT3, but they're trying to hype Morton up - all you'll get are #20 "action poses."

A lot like Torry Holt on MNF.

I'm here to stay, although I've already applied for several job openings for the startup at Redskins.com.

New features will include a pre draft chat with Vinny Cerrato. Thats gonna go over like a fart in church.

Its funny they wait until after the draft to come up with that idea.

I actually found the Warpath.net by going on the Washington Post message board.....and the only time I've been back was when the Warpath was down and I was dying for something.
I like what they are doing with Redskins.com and I say more power to them! If they do get message boards, I'll check them out, but the Warpath will always be home.
The fact that they have already established a relationship with extremeskins is cool in that they are really trying to reach out to the fans. The chat with Karl Swanson is very good. But they need to expand that to the other fan sites that may not be as big as extreme, but are much better....well, at least one of them is!
