I know that some people are probably wondering just what it is that's going to be happening with the site over the next while. I'm fairly new to this admin job, and I've already made some changes (some for the better, maybe some for the worse). But there's more coming down the pipe with the sole purpose of giving our community more focus, and encourage the widespread membership to visit a bit more often.

Here's a shortlist of things coming down the pipe for focuscanada. Jump to whatever conclusions you want, but know that I may update the list from time to time.

here goes..

- finish the new site mandate
- update the forum rules for each forum - done
- post moderator conduct guidelines
- do site redesign - v2.0 deployed, v2.5 in the works.
- introduce new focus canada merchandise
- get some more moderators
- get 'regional event ambassadors'
- increase content (I have people willing to write up articles and do 'expert advice columns')
- bring on more sponsorship (and regional sponsors)
- created content to enable new business partners to join FC.net more easily.

note that all this will take some time. If this were my fulltime job, I'd post a project plan with some beautiful gant charts so we could all judge the progress.

but that's not going to happen.

you now must have 100 posts or more (be an active member) to view and post in the bunny cage.

see updated rules in offtopic and the cage.

If you are an active member, but cannot see the bunny cage, please PM me, and I'll fix it.

The change is more to protect newbies from just casually walking into a poop-flinging fight.... hopefully we maintain the liberal policies for the oldtimers, and provide a bit more comfort zone for newbies.

I'm soliciting for some logo ideas. 2 colour, take into account that it should look as good on the site as it would on a t-shirt or coffee mug.

once again, the creator of the chosen logo will be given some free swag.

Well, here's another little 'contest'... We're currently looking for a slogan to be used alongside the focuscanada logo for new merchandise that we're working on.

Do you have a catchy slogan we can use? post it here...

some guidelines.
- no swearing
- should reflect the canadian aspect of the site
- should reflect the focus or the sport compact scene
- should be family friendly and unoffensive
- keep it concise and to the point

whoever comes up with the slogan that gets used will get some free merchandise as we bring it in.

all non-serious posts will be deleted.

I've enabled the regional forums...

Right now, I've only enabled two provinces. If you wish to have another province added, please PM me with your request.

We can also add subforums and offer linking to regional forum sites... just ask, and you shall receive.

Hey... Just a few quick questions since you took over the site


a) Are paypal donations still going to jay. haha, perhaps that sticky should be taken down...

B) Are you changing the servers?

c) Is a donation drive nessecary?

d) Can you fix my profile issue haha


Thats all for now. :)

just as it says...

What is it? how does it work? im assuming that if nayone reads a post and believes that it is not appropriate etc, it will be flagged for a mod to investigate?

I cant seem to find a way to change my member title...
