Re: "Ang" and the AFL

This is part of the reason I suggested a "Known Issues" thread, could have kept all the back and forth in one place.
Since I didn't get the irony in the original post nor the following back and forth ... responding to the spirit of the original post: Yes, it would be great to have Mr. Coniglio posting here (again), along with the many other AFL fans (including others who have their own AFL history sites).
Perhaps once things settle down around here, when we get the forum issues fixed and such, there can be an effort to recruit people - new and old - to the forum? Not just the forum, but to be PFRA members, CC contributors, etc ...
We really need to take care of the people from the old forum that haven't made it over to this forum first, though. Some just never made it over here while some others had major issues signing up leading to them 'giving up'.
There's also people who used to post at the old forum who are signed up here but don't post here as often as they did there, for whatever reason.
We also have numerous PFRA members who don't post at the forums, but maybe we can advertise (been done before) the forum in the CC, try and sell them on sharing their football knowledge here.
Finally, there's people from other football sites, Chase Stuart used to post at the old forum, don't believe he's signed up here? At least one of the PFF guys posted at the old forum but I think he got ran off quickly. Then of course the numerous contributors to the known football sites that are unaware of the PFRA forums.
Just an idea, though back to "Ange", I'm not sure he would ever come back here. He still has the PFRA in his AFL Hall of Infamy - though as far as I know that has little to do with current PFRA members. That goes back a ways.
