Is the board dead?

The board has come back to life, a little.

Big_Dog, if you want to redesign and find a new host, go for it. I keep this one limping along but it's not my strong suit nor do I have the time to maintain it. SU Fanatic started it and then life (a law practice and three kiddos) got in her way so I stepped in. I'd love to have something more modern but I don't have the capacity to making it any more than it is, sorry.

I didn't mean to come off like an ingrate. I understand that this is a labor of love. I do think this is something to look at doing (updating/upgrading) next summer when everything has wrapped up for the year.

I didn't take it that way, I promise. Tone is so difficult via online writing. If you have the expertise to make it something better, I'm all for exploring options next summer.

I still think this thing is state of the art compared to most of the boards I see. It is the easiest, most user friendly.

The question is how do we get more people to participate? I have a suggestion, maybe 03 could be a little nicer.

I agree with you cujo. I know nothing about the tech end, but I can easily navigate this Board. As for the concern about getting more activity, I have often wondered why we don't tell others about it. We could do this in private conversations at ball games Bulldog Club events, and many other opportunities. I admit that I haven't put an effort into this, and have no excuse as to why I haven't. Is this a good possibility to increase interest?

When I Google "Samford message board", this site is the top result. If people are interested, this site isn't difficult to find. The more we win, the more interest there will be.

I don't know, seems like losses get more activity around here, lol.

[Cujo]

03 is just plain mean.

I know why the board is dead! Because Chris Hatcher has destroyed our football program. He’s made us an embarrassment.
