Welcome One, Welcome All

[klunderbunker]

First off, welcome to what might be our new home. As you know (and my goodness I’m sure you’ve heard the story by now), things aren’t looking so bright around WrestleZone Forums anymore so we’ve moved on to a place without any oversight. Now while some of you might find this, dare I say, re….ally not the smartest idea in the world, it’s something we’ve probably been needing to do for a long time now.

Sly and I (ok mainly Sly) put this place together in the span of a few weeks and while it’s FAR from complete, the framework is here for what could be a snazzy new forum. This is an upgraded version of vBulletin (WrestleZone is about ten years old at this point) and we might upgrade it again in the future, depending on necessity. For now though, this is the core of the place.

Now I say core because there’s probably a lot that needs to be changed. This is where we’d like you all to help us out. If you even know about this place, it’s clear that you’re dedicated to what we’re doing and what we’ve done before. Therefore, we’d like you to test things out a bit. If there are any glitches, issues, problems you find (Sly, Becca and I found a long list in the matter of a few days so there are definitely ones out there) or just suggestions you might have, let us know about them. One of the most likely issues you'll find is template style issues with the "KB's Desire" template. You know Sly and I are always open to changing things up as need be.

As for rules, at the moment just stick with what we did over at WrestleZone. No porn of course (I’m looking at you Yaz and Killjoy) but other than that, it’s pretty much just don’t go crazy. Sly and I will be the only staff as it’s not like there’s going to be much to do as far as discipline etc.

You’ll also notice that there are nowhere near as many sections at the moment. That’s likely to change down the road, but we don’t want to set everything up if there’s no need for a lot of sections. Stuff like the Media Hub and the Symposium didn’t draw on WZ and odds are they won’t here. Of course if the need arises, we’ll put them up but for now, we’ll keep it basic. You may also notice, however, there are more forum skins to choose from, so help yourself. And if you find one online you're interested in, feel free to suggest it.

That’s about everything so of course let us know if you run into any problems, issues, ideas or suggestions.

Not a problem. The best part is that we have a forum here where the owners actually care about the forum and are willing to make improvements.

['Ravishing' Ned Flanders]

That's a nice change of pace.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

So this isnâ??t the forum Crocker started? Color me disappointed.

Was a shit poster back on WZ that would always shit on Cena and talk about other places like reddit and how they were better. He even posted a thread on reddit bitching about you Sly. He kept saying he was going to make his own forums.

[jmt225]

The website is absolutely beautiful.

Great job Sly and KB, seriously. I look forward to participating and watching this place grow.

[klunderbunker]

It wouldn't be the same without you.

[Yaz]

*psst* I know...was joke.

I live in Kentucky now, my IQ isn't what it used to be. Just look at KB.

[hatehabsforever]

This should be awesome, I wish you guys well in getting this thing up and running. I have no doubt that it will be a resounding success.

[John]

How do you plan to get new users? I assume the majority of traffic on WZ came from viewers of the main site gravitating over for discussion.

The old forum had relatively strict rules on posting (at least compared to most forums). Are shitposts outside of designated forums still an infraction? I'd vote that they ought to be.

[John]

Oh, and I just received grey rep from another poster and realized that none of us have the rep power to give anything other than grey. Not that I'm particularly worried about rep but isn't it essentially broken at this point due to that? Maybe the forum Gods need to distribute some to get us started.

['Ravishing' Ned Flanders]

just for some personal piece of mind if someone is being a fucking retard I can call them a fucking retard...right?

[Slyfox696]

just for some personal piece of mind if someone is being a fucking retard I can call them a fucking retard...right?We haven't exactly created rules yet, but using the word "retard" will not be banned or punished merely for the use of the word.

[Fallout]

I'm disappointed. I was expecting this to become my personal safe space.

Howdy.

[klunderbunker]

Welcome.

[Dagger Dias]

Hi guys! :) Looking forward to seeing what happens with this new site.

[Fillet Club]

Looking forward to seeing what you guys can do here, it gets a little old wading through some of the dross over at WZ.

[Sully]

Hi,

Am I welcome here? I was permabanned on WZ, for good reason, but hopefully I am given a fresh chance. I want to acknowledge that I was a little annoying nuisance the last time you all knew me. I think am 9 years older now (21 years old) and certainly a lot has changed. I'm in my 4th year of college studying Criminal Justice and Psychology with a minor in child development.

I'd love to reconnect with some of you all again and see what you've been up to.

['Ravishing' Ned Flanders]

Hey Sully

Sully, no joke, we were talking about you today. I was saying how weird it would be to see old trolls that haven't been on WZ for years, and here you are.

Remember when I made the Sully's Bar Mitzvah thread? I still read it sometimes and crack the fuck up.

Yes, I can't argue that it was indeed funny. And I certainly deserved it. I've gone on and read some of the old posts I made and just reacted with pure cringe. Surprised some of you put up with me as long as you did.

[Nate]

Are you still using a bowl to eat spaghetti?

Don't be a jerk/troll and yeah, you'll be welcome here.

[Sully]

Yes, when eating leftovers, I do indeed use a bowl. That was a lesson I learned for life.

[Awesome_Miz]

Hello there everyone some of you may not know me as I don't post on the old forums as much as anymore unless it's for WZP contests, but nonetheless I can't wait to see what great wonders this new forum brings as it is in the hands of two very awesome mods out there. Here's to a great new adventure with some nice good looking people. ;)

[SD619]

Haven't posted much in the old site outside of a few threads, but here I am...

[supermatto64]

I didn't post in here yet, and I've been around the forums already, but yeah. I'm formerly Sai, nice to see all the peeps here so far. Hope this forum flourishes.

[noahconstrictor]

Used to be on Wrestlezone then got banned for reasons I don't remember.

Still read KB's reviews on his site, and figured I'd join up here.

That Slyfox dude was probably a douche.

Me.Him?

[BaconBits]

Hi guys. I lied about not caring, obviously.

[Slyfox696]

Hi guys. I lied about not caring, obviously.
That's okay, I routinely lie about being a good person. Actually I routinely lie about being a jerk. Or is it I lie about lying?

Whatever. Welcome!

Something about agendas, snowflakes and head injuries. I don't remember the context.

[Spidey]

So there's a few people on the Members list who are going by new names or are new to this site in general.

Just saying hey and welcome to Steel Cage Forums!

[Big Nick Dudley]

Very nice, guys.

[Slyfox696]

Very nice, guys.Thanks! Glad to see you here, hope you stick around.

[Storm Trooper]

So I've already posted a lot, but I'll say an official hello to all. It's taken a little while to get used to a not 10 year old forum style. I'm liking this.

And yeah like some others I had a name change from our old home. A spacious one at that. As in a space between the 2 words...

[Shocky]

Nice to see people that give a shit running a forum. Iâ??m positive WZ probably hasnâ??t received owner care since before I was an admin.

Oh but they care if someone dares complain. Not that anything else ever done matters of course.

[Storm Trooper]

They don't care if someone complains. They only care if someone who supposedly claims to have prior experience on the main page complains.

Or if Hausman is told what to do. It's not like he can think of something himself.

Damn it. All those years climbing up the WZ ladder to become WWE champion gone to waste. Never mind. Here's to my ressurection.

PS: nice modern forum

Hope you enjoy!

[Yer Maw]

I'm glad to be here.

I don't know if that has been mentioned here yet but any time I go to the vbulletin menu and I go to click in "profile", it takes me to the search bar instead. In fact, if I try to click on anything on the right side it takes me to the search bar.

[navi]

Wondered where everyone went. Like the colour's and glad to be here.

It seems the issue depends on browser, as Firefox handled it fine.

I've seen some forums online where the issue has been brought up, but not seeing much help in fixes. I'll keep looking and seeing what I can do.

Good to see you here and welcome!

[BlackRipRedJack]

Hi, I had an account on WZ years ago, can't remember if I posted that much. I saw that you started this place up and thought I'd join up.

[klunderbunker]

Welcome.

[Bagpipes]

Ronda really needs the bagpipes at the beginning of her theme if she truly wants to do right by the Hot Rod. Sup guys, glad to be here, place looks good.

[It's Damn Real!]

Hi.

[Slyfox696]

Hi.Good to see you.

[It's Damn Real!]

Glad to be here, bud. Took me an embarrassing amount of time to even realize the new forum existed. :redface:

[double013]

the new forum looks good i may of missed it but what size pic can i have in my signature.

For now, keep the same dimensions as WZ. We're going to provide some new rules in the near future, once we get some free time to discuss them.

[LSN80]

Not sure if Ill be able to be around much, but this place is spectacularly cool. Its surreal to see some of the same people I used to know from elsewhere here as well.

Youve done well.

Hi guys, looking for a good wrestling forum to have some good debates on. I used to post on WZ years and years ago but haven't really been around in the last few years. Looking forward to getting going here :)

Not been around here for about 10 years - they can't have been worse than how they were then ;)

Hey I used to post on WZ years ago and heard that the Mega Powers started their own cool spinoff, so here I am.

[FSWWE]

Hey everyone! I used to post on WrestleZone a long time ago (10+ years now I believe). I was mostly in the design section and being a brat in general in every other thread.

I remember though having a bickery with one Y2-Jake, that stated that The Dark Knight Returns would make more bank than the Harry Potter finale, well he was wrong so yeah, suck it asshole. It's all good ;)
