Domain Name

Do we want to think about potentially getting a domain name? Even if we change sites at some point, we can still use the domain name.

I'll volunteer to pay for it if we can come up with something.

We will be starting a private Facebook group where the discussion of the new name will take place. We don't want to keep it too public.

Some ideas have been batted around, but MAO (mystery admin overlord at TOS - or see Katzen's sig) is notorious for buying up UofA related and UofA player domain names.

Glad your here! View the forum thread in the basketball section, gives a good overview of whats been happening the past few days. All kudos to UAdevil and JMJ for setting this up.

I'd like to join to, if it's open to more than just a select few.

There's too many complications with a private Facebook page, and it's no more tightly secured (less so, in fact) than the lower boards here, which are invisible without an account. Let's just discuss on the lower boards. And let's not get nuts about this.

I second this motion.

Lower boards here? Am I missing something? I see the same boards whether signed in or out. Or do I need to get a few posts first?

If you're logged out, you can see General Discussion, but not Politics, Religion, and Beer, nor Media. I just tried it again and found that to be the case. Am I looking at this wrong?

Thanks Longhorned. I would have never figured that out on my own.

I didn't figure it out on my own, either. I sent money to a motel room in Tombstone and it all got turned around for me.

so then no FB group? That was gonna be my excuse for reactivating my account :(

Also...who ever buys the name and I'm sure it'll be discussed...don't buy any hosting OR email packages...If the current member doesn't want to host, I'll do it for free. And also, I ALWAYS find coupons do buy domains for next to nothing.

The FB group is public, L, and has existed ever since the Gershon exodus. You just need to ask me to add you, in exchange for special favors.

I'll leave it up to you to decide which five words above are total BS.
