Just in time for the beginning of another baseball season the new NEGROLEAGUEBASEBALL.COM web site and Negro League Discussion Forum are now open and ready for your participation.
PARTICIPATE
During the past four years the Negro League Discussion Forum has grown to become the net's most popular place for sharing information about Negro League baseball. The forum has been used by more than 100,000 students, teachers and baseball fans…and now it's going to be even better!
The transition to the new forum software meant losing the hundreds of posts made on the older forum. So, the forum is starting with a clean slate. With your participation it will be filled with interesting material very quickly.
The new forum software provides dozens of new features that make it easier than ever to ask questions, provide answers and share information and opinions. The new features include:
- Keyword Search – find messages containing user defined keywords.
- View Recent Messages – read only those messages posted within the last day or week.
- Attach Photos And Graphic Files To Messages (graphic sizes limited to 60k).
- Attach Files To Messages.
- Create Your Own User Profile – Let other forum members know who you are and get to know others.
- Receive Messages Via Email – Receive copies of all messages posted to a particular topic…or all topics. Just choose what you would like to receive.
- Receive Email Notification Of Responses To Message You Have Posted.
- Complete Formatting Control For Messages
We encourage you to read the online documentation and familiarize yourself with the wealth of features the system now offers.
Most of all, though, we encourage you to participate!
