i understand the moving of certain threads to hamsterdam, but im finding it increasingly difficult to navigate the site with all the forums and subforums. it seemed easier when everything non-lacrosse was just in the WC. just wanted to share that feedback.

I tend to agree, Chairman, but without moderators, which itself is a complicated and difficult role to fill in ANY online environment, particularly one that attracts certain, shall we say, "colorful" posters that have no real sense of honor or decorum...what's a site admin to do? Expel the cause of the denigration, and he/she is likely to just sign up again under some other new name. It gets exhausting to monitor, as many of our former LP mods can readily attest, i'm sure.

There's something annoying going on...well...annoying ME, that is.

Type the word argue and look what happens: argue

That's the word a.r.g.u.e.

WHY?? This isn't the only example. Is this some sort of setting, Admin?? Auto-Emoji???

Don't like it.

If we are discussing wants and desires - keep it clean now, 2P - I really would love to see a Sarcasm Font....or at least a Sarcasm Font emoji.

sarcasm eye roll :roll:
Looked this up and... Do you want an upside down smiley face? To me, that doesn't seem like sarcasm. I prefer the eye roll. But you tell me.

The eye roll can work if we all agree!

Functionality where I can go to the PA High School Lacrosse Page and click on Haverford's 2016 schedule and say, "Wow, Culver beat them twice. I wonder if they went undefeated" so I click on Culver and then I click on Culver in 2015 and then etc., this is not simple to create.

1- This information is not readily available.
2- There's between 3 and 4 thousand HS teams. And that's just the HS boys. We also want to do this for the girls and D3 and...
3- And even after you collect all this information, which is not simple, we need to create the links from Haverford to Culver to Culver in 2015 to McDonogh to...

So, I've been digging and digging and then scratching my head and then digging and digging etc. and... We're making progress. Creating this took me hours, not days. This is only 2016, it doesn't have the game scores (just Ws and Ls... first person to complain about this gets a punch in the throat), and... Take a look. Here's Haverford in 2016.

I seem to have to log in every time I visit the site, despite checking the remember me box. Anybody else reporting this? Just a paper-cut, but wondering...

Me, too. I assumed it was my PCs or router or something so I'm happy you said something. I'll look into this.

Implementing a new website theme/layout. Clear out your cache each time you come to it and you can watch the progress. It'll be operable (though it'll look very different) soon.

Ok...Now it is looking navigable again.

Not a big "black theme" guy but it looks fine.

How are the stats looking over the last month?
