I'm debating ponying up to make this an ad-free board. I have modified it already as you have noticed where I can link to the league pages and just have everything ran strictly off of this messageboard for the league.
Just want to see where peoples preferences are. Is there value in having a default page. Or is there more value in using the messageboard to run league things, that way people are more inclined to be looking at the board (and seeing the announcements etc.)
Looking for some feedback please.

I was paying $11/mo thru Yahoo when I had the BRHL page in the pre-Portal days. Then it was switched to GoDaddy by Eric or Bryce for cheaper and then we went to the Portal. Honestly the cheapest option is to have a Facebook BRHL page. For all the GM's opposed just create a fake account. Your name could be Kevin Thrashers or Garrett Leafs. There would be no personal information other than what you put on the page. Everything can be made up.
If you are opposed to Facebook on principle because you hate the fad (silly hipster GMs) or hate Zuckerberg than make a fake page to eat up their server space. LOL.
Facebook is free and the layout along with the Chat feature etc is perfect. I would create a fake Ken Predators account just for that purpose.

i would allow my arm to be twisted and create a fake facebook profile if the page on facebook could do everything that we are accustomed to

Unless we have a web editing/SQL database guru who can rewrite the portal code to make things work the way it should (and the way we want), I'd rather have an index page and a forum to deal with day to day stuff. Even if the portal gets up and running smoothly, I'm still going to use the index page because I don't trust the portal. It's a translation of our league only, not a live database. It's too prone to errors and I hate it. I understand that it's even more finicky with V2 of STHS.
The Facebook page is not really something I'm gravitatiing to. I might make a habit of it but I might not either.

I have no preference, whatever is easier and cheaper gets my vote.

ya very pumped..
On a related note. If you see the page crash anytime from Sunday-Tuesday, you will know why. I am around, should that happen a league email will immediately be sent and it will be short term (I promise).
Game 7 in West goes tomorrow night. Kings trying to claw back from down 3-0. Cup is set to start on Sunday evening.
