I know, but it is SO hard to get people to know about it. You have to help me get people on the CP Discussion Board (that's my best hope), please.

I try to add topics quite frequently in the appropriate sections. If you find something interesting and you wish to talk about it, go ahead and make a topic (assuming that you post it under the right category).

I am going to start a type of "fantasy tennis leage" I think. Look for updates in the announcements section of the forum.

The Fantasy League thing is a GREAT idea. It will be really,really fun once the season gets up and running.
|

I agree. Great idea with the fantasy league. It will be interesting to see how some of our picks do.

Sure, anything to get more productive members  .

A fantasy league would be extremely cool.

I would help you out by recruiting people from CP, but I didn't stay there at any length so I don't know any members.

advertsising on CP is a good idea. it's just once you make a topic about percy's fourm he delets it. but he could be alittle off guard since no one that i know of has posted a topic about pery's tennis fourm in awhile

I guess that's an honour to Percy's Tennis Forum, because I think that indicates that the CP moderators think this forum might potentially become a rival in the future.

i think if someone went on this fourm and advertised for CP then i think percy would delete the posts/topics about CP. no one wants someone advertising o nteir fourm about another fourm. you wnat people to stay at your fourm and not go somewhere else

I guess they can't do anything about our putting ads on our signatures.

they can always just ban us

I'm not really posting on the CP board anyways  , since I"m in favour of this one .
|

I was really surprised that the CP forum did allow the promoting of this forum. I am glad it did though or I would have never found it. The thing I have noticed with this forum is that everyone seems so nice and there is no agrueing over stupid things such as who was the better player.
|

|
...especially questions that can't be answered. (Ex. Federer vs. Sampras, Graf vs. Seles)
|

Those type of questions drive me nuts

Me too. The CP Forum seems to have the same topics recurring every month . It's good at first, but it really gets boring.
|

|
yeah i know. i'm just afraid that the smae thing will happen here  
but hopefully we can keep it new and refreshing 
|

|
I feel it's going well here. I think that how the Current Tournament section will always change week-to-week really does a good job of keeping the forum up to date. As well, our discussions always lead towards interesting views and points.
|
J-man
|
yes very. i think my posting has inproved since i've been on here
|
x.doublea
|
It's also nice that no one here writes their own opinions in the forms of one whole page. When I see those at the CP forum, I don't really want to read through it.
|
leftys_rock
|
yeah, like tedi's seven page essays on how sampras is better than fed....i read one of those and it was like reading a book.....
|
x.doublea
|
I just skip those essays. But it shows you that Tedi has lots of effort in bringing is point across. It's just concise is sometimes better than long.
|
leftys_rock
|
yeah....if he cut those down by three quarters, then we would probably be more likely to read them....
|
baselinebrawler
|
I hate when people write a whole thesis, it is torture to read. I also skip them.
|
leftys_rock
|
yeah, i just dont like the tennis great vs. other tennis great topics.....
|
baselinebrawler
|
They really drive me crazy too. Like is Sampras better then Federer. Well that could be debated for ages and noone would ever be satisfied. You will always have your Sampras supporters and you'll have your Federer supporters. Never nothing accomplished in those debates.
|
leftys_rock
|
yeah, and the seles vs. graf topic can potentially go on forever because their careers are over and they wont be playing on the wta again unless they get reincarnated or something....
|
baselinebrawler
|
Exactly. The only response I ever give those topics is that they were both great players PERIOD.
|
x.doublea
|
I think that it is human nature that two people can't be great....one must be greater than the other.
|
leftys_rock
|
i would probably just say, "navratilova was better than both of them, end of story..."
|
baselinebrawler
|
That would most definetly end the story.
|
leftys_rock
|
yeah....except they continue the graf vs. seles argument.....tennisslams was the main culprit in that one....
|
x.doublea
|
The problem is if you terminated one Seles vs. Graf thread, one person would immediately start up another.
|
leftys_rock
|
yeah...and everybody is like "THERE ARE ALREADY 600 MILLION TOPICS ON THIS!!"
|
J-man
|
yeah i know they need to give it a rest. we will never know
|
leftys_rock
|
yeah, because there is no right answer to the question....its weird how some people dont understand that there is no right answer to that and there are too many "what ifs..."
