Front Page Article

I say, let our voice be heard. it is not too much of an use to have it on bc.com frontpage since none of those ICC elites visits here. we should email articles like these to as much places as possible. I do'nt know who is the author (i mean author's forum nick), but you should try to publish it via cricinfo. and email it to ICC and thing like that. we need to stop this to its roots before it grow bigger.

Thanks to the author for presenting such a nice article.

Although my humble request for including the MB Id with the articles was probably denied (I could see some discussion amongst the moderators from the Who's Online with the subject: message board ID with the articles, but the outcome is still unknown. I had the expectation that if there are valid reasons not to post the IDs, it would be informed, but I again trust and honor the judgment of the moderators.), from some other threads, I could know some of the IDs of the authors.

Thanks again.

Moderators have reached following decision in this matter:
It is solely writers option if they want to include member id with their article. Before adding a new article, moderators will ask each writer if they want to add the id. Member id will be included only if they consent to it.

I understand the decision (although had to wait too long for it, and even a further inquiry became essential to have the decison to be known by an "ordinary member" like me) and it is well-justified.

However, I have the opinion that those who may not wish to display their IDs with the articles, should better follow the Standard Method of posting their articles to the moderators by U2U or e-mail. It is not understandable to me that an article would be posted first in a thread with MB ID followed by in the frontpage, but will have two different identities in the author names. Such denial to include the MB ID to the front page by the posters, to me, affects the right of the members in the message board.

This is just my personal opinion and if it is not acceptable, just ignore it.

I am curious to know if BD players or Officials browse the net . If they do, do they visit this site. On the present evidence, it does not appear so.

In case they do not visit this site, one cannot blame ICC either for not visiting this site.

According to one senior member of this site, most of them do visit this site regularly.

According to our moderator Oracle who talked to our players in person during WI series, most BD players know about this site and do visit it whenever they can. Also, don't forget that U19 coach Richard McInnes is a member here. His id is: observer.
