Something I mentioned to Mr. Showtime during our last conversation on MSN: The SvR09 Originals Boards on CAWs.ws are a goldmine for new talent (CAWs) to join the ranks. Bryan did mention something about posting a thread somewhere on CAWs which ultimately got deleted, but I think it would be good for some of the members here to PM your fellow CAW-making friends and suggest them to come on over if they are up to it. I think that among the sea of n00bs that CAWs has, there are some diamonds in the rough that are most likely seeking a safer haven in terms of a wrestling forum goes. Anyhow, just throwing it out there, even though it'll bring more work to head honchos (Sorry!  ) in the long run. |

I think we should be careful about posting anything publically on CAWs, especially with the way that that place has degraded into a bunch of 13 year olds fighting and leaving stupid comments in people's threads. IMO, that is just going to make this place another CAWs, where we have to deal with just some pure idiots.

We should let at least on of those emo CAW guys in and beat the shizzle out of them untill they cry. Convince him to face Dru, Jon Pryor and Jon Payne in a handicap match just so he can cry about how he got his ass tore up!!

Guys, guys... I specifically said "send PM to your fellow CAW-making friends" for a reason. It's safe to assume, at least I hope, that those "friends" don't include 13 year old n00bs and the like, unless you like to associate yourself with them, which isn't a knock to those that do either. But I'm talking about people on CAWs that have contributed something productive to the Originals Boards, not some CAW that was slapped together without even an afterthought. Granted, there might be very few to choose from, yet like I said before I'm sure something is better than nothing at all. |

It depends on how they behave on the forums, but some of the comments that were on caws.ws were stupid and needless and for someone who didn't use them much like myself it was very off putting. Edit: Didn't see Lantigua's post before |

Edit: Didn't see Lantigua's post before LOL. Does that mean you agree with what I said? Anyhow, all I'm saying is to bring it up in conversation to those you talk with either on MSN or CAWs on a regular basis and if they are interested, awesome... if not? Hey, at least you tried. I'm not asking for anyone to twist anyone else's arm. I'm under the impression that everyone here has some sense of judgment of character toward those they associate themselves with. So if you talk to n00bs, disregard this post. If you don't, well you know what to do. |

My quick banner sig is still available real quick.. I had it in my sig over there before a mod who can't add pulled my sig for being too big.. 125+75= 200 pixels in height. Which is within their rules but it looked big to the mod and he never looked at the properties of each sig. Anyways here's my sig, already set up to link back here when clicked ownboards.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=gfx&action=display&thread=90 |

LOL! So, today I got a PM from a Global Mod over at CAWs.ws giving me a warning about advertising. The post in MY OWN THREAD where I advertised OWN was deleted. XD Could be for the best though so a bunch of kids aren't on here being idiots. So, any other ideas out there to get people to join up?

Hah, I got one of them warnings too for advertising GCW. Those guys are fags that are just way too anal about their stupid warning policies.
Speaking of which... mine should be expired by now...

TSK TSK and $~L ~$ says I am the troublemaker XD... Yes the EE is very anal about outside advertising like the few people who do join the forums outside of Caws.ws is gonna hurt them, the same people will still visit that site too, not like they are losing any members overall,lol

I've done my part on CAWs.ws by sending some PMs to people I believe would like what we have going on here, so it would make sense that other sensible CAW makers and fans would do the same, especially if said members truthfully enjoy other people's work. It's not that hard, people. |

It's difficult because I don't really visit caws.ws and seems like they are on power trips over there so meh screw them. I would suggest Youtube but it's kind of noob central. Honestly with my own fed I don't really know where to start besides here in terms of promotion.

Honestly with my own fed I don't really know where to start besides here in terms of promotion. Hey Jay... don't sweat it too much, man. I'm sure if you knew more people who weren't already here, you'd help in any way you can. There's a difference between not caring at all and actually caring and you fit the bill for the latter, my friend.  But since you mentioned youtube, do you showcase your stuff on youtube? Maybe you contacting your most favorite fans might work? I'm sure if they watch, then they have CAWs of their own they probably love to feature and what better way than through here? LOL. Just an idea if you think it can help.  |
