I thought I'd go ahead and get the chat started here. If you have any questions or suggestions, or if you find anything you see needing change, let me know.

We're also looking for names for the different sections. Shoot the S*** is one I'd love to see changed.

We'd like to have something where people actually know what it means. And there's no smoking here.

I could go with that. Might need a new name for both but I could go with that.

We may leave the name of the fed alone and just have it be an orphan acronym.

We've only discussed it in passing so far though.

Steel Cage Wrestling - SCW - isn't a bad name though. But aye, we'll likely just keep the name if and when we move over.

It's gotta change eventually. Be weird to call ourselves WZCW when we're in a new world over here. Steel Cage Wrestling or Steel Cage Federation is right there for the taking, too.

Loving this layout already. Have you tried yellow font? Already has something better than the old forums.

I don't know. I kind of feel if we do jump down the line, we should go with a more distinctive name rather than being associated to whatever our home is. Similar to WCPW becoming DEFIANT Wrestling and looking for it's own identity.

Also I'm probably going to stick to this new name. Thing is, outside the forum, I always went by my regular nickname and now I have a status. Small, but it is a status. Plus I'd like to promote work I do here. Which I wanted to ask. What do you guys think about a Facebook page to promote the stuff done here? It would help attract attention once we get rolling here and I got some of the guys on Facebook who can help admin it.

You could call it "Shooting the Breeze" or "Chewing The Fat" Both have the same meaning.

As far as the fed eventually migrating here, I'm in favor of a name change. Wrestlezone Championship Wrestling, straight out of the redundancy department for redundancy.

Oh, I also noticed this when KJ and I post. I think it is due to our signatures, but there is a gap between the post and the line for the signature. I'm not sure if that is supposed to be there or if it is some error, but I thought I'd point it out.

I'd say you guys should do an Invasion storyline, but I understand you don't necessarily have enough guys to pull that off.

I have no problem at all with a Facebook page, so long as A) It is positive and B) I don't have to mess with it.

So my guess is that the signature starts after your profile information (Screenname, avatar, join date, etc.) ends.

For some reason i can't start threads. Not to big a deal right now but it would be a bit of a pain if we move the fed over here

I'd say you guys should do an Invasion storyline, but I understand you don't necessarily have enough guys to pull that off.

The ground work for this is sort of in place - I did a storyline where Steven Holmes was buying up other feds as his retirement plan. I pitched an idea concerning this to Dave ages back but I left shortly thereafter. I don't know if he ever took/used the invasion aspect of the story, so it could possibly work.

You should have received a PM when you first registered which explained this, but I forgot to write my name in a blank so you didn't.

Right now, you are part of the "New Members" group. Once you get to five posts, you'll move to the full "Registered Users" group, where you'll have all the normal functions. It's just a way to keep spambots from flooding the forums.

Back when Harthan was in charge and I was 2 and Blade was 3, he pitched an idea to me of Blade the wrestler being fired and starting his own rogue promotion and invading WZCW. We actually had a fair amount of it planned out and were going to pitch it to the rest of the team once I took over, but Blade dropped out before that happened.

With regards to the fed, I think making a backup of it here would suffice for frame of reference. I could use some of my free-time to help re-format some of the old shows to a serviceable standard so it's not just a copy-paste job.

I got here by looking at KB's site. If I may ask, what went down at WZ Forum? I dig this site thus far, and I plan on sticking around, no doubt. I just was wondering what happened at WZ. Thanks.

klunderbunker
02-19-2018, 02:58 PM
Welcome.

Short version: Sly (the other boss here) said something that wasn't popular with the site's owners. After 8 years of volunteering, they fired him without hearing his side of the story and when he sent them an email listing off everything he had done (including writing the rules since WrestleZone never once told us how to do anything), he was told he made a stupid lapse in judgment and that was the end of their discussions.

#AbsoluteUnit
02-19-2018, 03:04 PM
That seems really pathetic to be honest. But I'd say thanks to you and Slyfox for running that site for the better part of 8 years. I figure that you guys will have pretty much freedom to do whatever you two choose. Anyway, good looking man.

klunderbunker
02-19-2018, 03:07 PM
Yeah we run this place ourselves now. It was more annoying than anything else because A, we weren't told anything about what to say/not say and B, you would think that long with working for no money or benefits would have earned us at least a little stature. Not so much apparently.

I had started lurking around WZ again in recent weeks after taking a long break. I'm happy to see this place is up and running with a lot of the people I remember having really good discussions when I was more active. I'm excited to see where this goes.
