Andrew, since you seem to moderate this board, why don't you gather the other knicks ranters from the net - they are on REALGM, BSKBALL.com, and NYTimes.com (Knicks board).

Can you go out and tell them to come here for SERIOUS knicks chat?

Caseloads, we are trying to gather some of the serious Knicks posters from around the net, and will hit the sites you suggested. Any members that want to help us get the word out by inviting people from other boards are welcome to do so.

Those guys over at the NYTimes kill me some times. In fact, I was thinking we should add a button (ala a smiley button) to the post message page which would automatically insert "I just checked with the ultimateknicks.com trade checker and it said 'Pass the bong'" into a message. All courtesy to kevporter for that one. I think we may need that when posts about trades start to fly.

Certainly before the season started, and before we really let the word out to the other forums, we wanted to make sure the software and our bandwidth supported all the new users. I think we are there. Let's get the word out.

dont go to espn.com message boards, theyre filled with kids proposing unequal trades and especially toronto fans who try to trash the knicks in every way.

I agree, those Toronto kids really fill up the board.... wait, I'm 15, live in Toronto, am a Raptor season ticket holder. Wait, I think we can get Kobe for Mo Perterson and Chris Childs. Gotto go.

Here r some other suggestions:

1. check out the jetsinsider.com site. Its similar to this one w/ some added features. Ie. 1-49 posts = rookie, 50 posts = veteran, 100 posts = all league, 500 posts = all something.

2. It also has faces and people that r knick fans

3. Jet bars; we could do something like that for Knick bars


The board looks good and is a breath of fresh air from nj.com/forums/knicks which has a lot of idiots on the site that propose ridiculous trades and do nothing but ridicule each other.
Come strong or not at all!

If you guys are interested in doing the member rating thing...I've started a thread in the ultimateknicks.com site forum to make some sugestions. Here's the link.

Ah, but it is not the quantity of the postings, but the quality that counts.. Shall we boast of numbers when new ideas, good commentary and such count for so much more...

Very true. I'd rather have 10 quality people posting than 1000 bad posters.

It's so nice not to see those annoying Toronto fans from the old nbatalk.com days who are now on realgm.

We intend to keep the board well moderated....something ESPN is lacking.

Hey - the more the merrier. But what I like about this site is the level of maturity (nothing to do with age) Not that everyone agrees all the time, but I haven't seen any ugly, pointless flame wars break out yet.

So far as I am concerned, this is the BEST Knicks site!
