I don’t know why but people must be afraid to email me to get the link. I’m trying but not having much luck. yup it sucks. But A9 did tell myself and hillcat that members spreading the link via PM would be ok to do but that the mods are not allowed to do it lol. So if you feel energetic ... What are they gonna do to the mods at this point? Take away their mod duties?

If I post the link directly on the site what is the worst thing they could do? I’m just worried if they decide to keep it that I wouldn’t be allowed on.

Hey folks! So glad this place is up and running... Big thanks to the admins/organizers here and to Sharptooth for quasi-supplying the link, lol. Just familiarizing myself with the new digs here and I gotta say, so far so great... sob, sniff... got something in my eye...

Hey, once the OMB officially shuts down, wouldn't it be possible to e-mail members (who are probably unaware) directly about this site? I mean, I'm pretty sure I had to give my address when I registered there, so wouldn't some admins have access to that list? If so, after there's no conflict of interest regarding message boards, wouldn't Oilers be cool with this?
I'm probably out to lunch here, but it don't hurt to spitball...

It would, but unfortunately the moderators there do not have access to the member email list, and the organization will chose to protect the privacy of it's members and not divulge the email list to us.

OK then, I understand the necessity of privacy issues, but the fact remains that people signed up to become members of a message board there, and since they are most likely willing and interested in continuing with such a thing, maybe a request to the organization for them to send out a blanket email to all former message board members would be worth a shot? I mean surely, a simple letter informing said members of essentially a mirror site with the same setup, rules, regulations, mods...etc... would not only be informative, but the classy thing to do in this case? Also, personally, it would compel me to visit the official Oilers site more often so that I would have access to more current issues/stories to discuss here with y'all, so a win-win all around. Again, just spitballin', trying to get as many old members to migrate here before the old place shuts down altogether.... I like the new place so far BTW... good stuff guys!

We were told end of this month, but they've already removed the links to it from the official NHL site (oilers.nhl.com) and the other official site (Edmontonoilers.com)
