Hello from ESPN forums

Hi guys, it's meltx from ESPN. Saw some peeps from the other forums being active here. Hopefully we can carry the same tradition from the espn boards to sportshoolpa!

Cheers!

Hey Meltx the new handle will take some getting use to but it's good that you found your way here. I've always liked your take on the Rams. This looks like a well run Message Board so this season should be better than the last.

I hope so too. There were a few ESPN posters who might not last long here. If they join and don't change their ways the moderators should be able to take care of them...maybe.

May the off-season pass quickly. The football withdrawal symptoms are kicking in.

Hello Jaco,

Welcome!

Welcome.

To all ESPN refugees and Jacobarch, fastforward, et.al. Welcome to the Rampages. I am a moderator here. If you have any questions you know where to find me. Many of us came from the SeeBS pages so we all know the refugee routine. There is plenty here for your enjoyment.

Vitamike has a thread going on with avitar assignments during the season. Scroll down a ways in the forum and you'll see it under the title: "mutigers1 fan avi assignments". It is self explanatory. There are also threads with plenty of Rams vids both past and present if you want a pre-camp shot of RAM FOOTBALL BABY!!! Once you get past the 25 post mark, additional benefits are available to you and they will be found under the "UserCP" menu bar at the top of this page on the left.

As Rams camp and the 2013 season closes in, things will start to pick up. We are a passionate group as are most fans pages and Sportshoopla is THE site for sports talk. I run a fairly flexible ship here but I do have few rules that are non-negotiable and they are as follows.

We don't take kindly to trollin (which I am sure you are not) and we don't like a-holes either (of which I am sure you are not). Nudity in avitars is unacceptable. You can put scantly clad ladies in your avi's but no nudes. Any unnecessary and unwarranted baiting of other posters through viscous personal attacks that become a pattern of behavior that is not conducive to fair sports talk banter WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!!! We have a few cantankerous folks here but by and large they engage in passionate delivery of their points of view and do not engage in personal attacks that are viscous.

You can argue all you want and you can can get aggressive with your point of view including swearing, but when that aggression turns toward personal attacks that are excessive and outside of the topic at hand and become a consistent pattern of behavior, you will first receive a warning and your posts maybe edited. After the first warning, if the behavior continues you will be removed from this site. We're are all adults here. I am not in the business of baby sitting anyone.

If any of you have been a fan of the Rams for 50 or more years such as myself, we have a 50+ fanclub here of which there are four members to date. The fearsome foursome if you will. If you are eligible, present the relevant facts and the four present members will vote on your inception.

Once again, welcome to the Rampages, enjoy yourself, and jump right in on discussing our beloved Rams!!!
