Title: MUST READS for ALL, and especially newcomers! Post by StegRock on Mar 11th, 2003, 12:10am Well, I felt it was time for this kind of thread. Specifically, I was prompted by one of the comments Bouve made in his "greetings" thread. It seems as we continue to grow and since we are up to something more, a little different and quite esoteric if you have not been around here, we needed a thread where OUR "history" could readily be accessed by newcomers. This way they can have a better idea as to what we are up to and have a fair chance to comport themselves accordingly and we can better go about avoiding redundancies (in and of itself a mission of "the Gridiron"). As such, it gives us veterans of "the Gridiron" a place to point newbies to. This is going to be a VERY IMPORTANT permanent thread on "the Gridiron". Please feel free to add to the list as need be as time goes by. I do not think anyone will have to in this first wave as I have it very well covered. So, without further ado, here are threads that I would consider "MUST VISITS" for everyone, especially newcomers (REALLY KEY THREADS ARE LABELED "IMPORTANT", but I suggest you visit THEM ALL): The Serious Stuff - "the Gridiron" Mission - Standards - How I run things - Funding the Site - How YOU can make a difference IMPORTANT http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1042955464 IMPORTANT http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1043265438 http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1042328942 http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1035467206 http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1031072774 The Light Side http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1032231879 http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1031248951 Gridiron Leagues IMPORTANT (if you want to play ball with the guys 'round here) http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=56;action=display;num=1039551321 Nuts and Bolts IMPORTANT http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1042519004 IMPORTANT http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1031159917 IMPORTANT http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1043565298 http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1032166774 The Philosophy of your Admin http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=58;action=display;num=1037120039 A Historical Perspective - How "the Gridiron" came to be - Its Origins - the GBRFL http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=53;action=display;num=1030609988 (web page) http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/gbrfl/history.htm |

Title: Re: MUST READS, especially for newcomers! Post by StegRock on Jun 22nd, 2005, 9:35am The post made by "Referee" on the following thread is worth duely noting...

Title: Re: MUST READS, especially for newcomers! Post by StegRock on Oct 2nd, 2005, 2:03pm Fellow Gridironers, ESPECIALLY NEWCOMERS, whom I haven't gotten to know well yet and who haven't gotten to know me well yet, my post on the following thread, though not at all crucial to the administration of "the Gridiron" like the rest here, is a little heads up from a personal perspective that you might be interested in knowing/being reminded about when it comes to seeking fantasy advice (in "the Red Zone" and want me to chime in): http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=55;action=display;num=1128270799. |

Title: Re: MUST READS for ALL, and especially newcomers! Post by StegRock on Nov 2nd, 2005, 11:17pm Guys, please try to make time to consult my post on the following thread; the incident there greatly exemplifies the kind of chaotic and inefficient (and, ultimately less effective) environment we are trying to AVOID fostering here on "the Gridiron": http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=55;action=display;num=1130916404. The "other" thread involved here is: http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=55;action=display;num=1130861906. |
