The Junior forums are now open start registering if you are under 18 years old. We are wotking on them and they will get bigger and better but start registering now. You need to re-register there as they are new forums. You need to register with yor username and password here. We will have it all set up for you soon but lets get this part started now and work on your profiles etc over there click here to register at the new Junior Forums<<

You guys need to decide who is in charge of the forums there for you all. Who is next in charge?? Why? Can they do what is required of them? Who is a moderator over there? why? What is it? Somebody better step up and decide this stuff and get registered over there so you can have who you want or I'll just assign them myself. lol Right now it is still up to you all.

Hey Steve, registering now at the Junior Forums. I wish i could be in charge but it takes a lot of responsibility and time. 

I registered! Cool idea

This is a real chance for you younger guy's to step up and take on some real responsibility.  The JUNIOR FORUM will only be as good as you as a group make it.  Good luck.

I can make changes to anything there so start registering and then decide what you like and dont like. I only see  4 members, and I know we have more members under 18 than that. I can change the colors, the forums, the topics, add things take things away, move things over there, etc The chat room over there is better than here, you can schedule a junior chat on a different night and get everybody there only have a junior chat some nights, etc you can have regular meetings and talk in the chat room about tournaments, sponsors, tackle, whatever, all among people that are your own age, and always come back here to get an answer, look something up, talk and learn, etc but it is a place to try writing, do some tips, see how others respond of your age to them, test them out, make a video and put up all your videos of fishing that you do, get critiques on them, see what people say, get tips from people to make them better, work on your sponsors, practice writing a sponsor letter, have others there critique it, then bring a final product back here and post it and have it judged, etc lots of things to do, open your mind, think, make something happen, give some ideas, get some people together, but if you do nothing, I will delete the entire Junior Forums, and then lock this forums down with a password.

I have a lot to do this year and wasting time on this is not a big part of my year unless somebody is going to do something. Just letting you know. I dont do any of this for fun. I do other things for fun. 

YOU WILL STILL POST HERE but this is a chance to show you can run a chat room right, run a forums, write tips and articles, delete spam posts, post picture,et demonstarte what ideas you have, etc and demonstrate leadership and other skills that we will see and recognize which will help you later here or with other sponsors, etc but you all complain there is nothing to do in winter, welll here is something.I will be waiting to see who does what. 

You can start bringing in new younger membersover there and they can make a post saying that they were refered by so and so and we would see who is bringing in new members and how many and say wow that guy can recruit them huh? Just another thing to think about. If you think it, and it can be done, to the forums, we will do it, then it is yours to do with from there. Lets see what you all do there in a year. A good place to show what you have with few restrictions and with everybody else your age, then bring it back here and see how it flies. By the end of the year, a lot will be ready to run parts of this site, your own blogs or websites as a semi pro or Pro anglers, get some attention for articles or skills that stand out, lots of things you can do, or just do nothing, and Ill delete it and make the forums here for 16 and over with restrictions, you guys decide, and Ill turn those into a swimbait forums for the Northeast and lock it down to members with a password. I have other things to do this year and can't be fooling around here on the computer day and night after March 15th, so lets get anything we want to do, done soon, I have 2 cars, a house and boat to sell in 2 months, lets roll on this stuff. 

The first rule I will make for it is any junior member here who is not registered over there at  the Junior Forums, who posts here, will just have the post deleted over and over until they register there. 

The Junior forums is a great idea! I wish I had that opportunity as I was coming up when I started. You guys take care of it and enjoy it, its a great way to learn and share ideas and techniques!

The cream alway's rises up to the top, let's see who want's to be the cream???  In other word's, let see who has the leadership ability!

I registered!

Lets see a list of sugesstions on more forums there I have General Welcome Sposorship etc remember, it is not meant to replace these forums so it does not need even the same catagories, it can have just a few main ones, or more of another, etc make it all just topics that pertain only to young anglers or mix it up, or  whatever, but lets hear what you want and who wants to be what over there like the Global Moderator, etc administrator, so they can go therre and do stuff themselves lets hear it.

Alan could have a section for junior Kayak guys under 18, for exapmle, a section where you show all you fishing pictures once  year, something else, go look at it think about, maybe use it as a platform to get sponsors, learn to take charge, design a site, incorporate that into a resume, there are lots of things you guys can do, but I dont hear anything so ... 

You could talk to Alan maybe he wants to try to deign it? Or somebody else who is good with tech stuff, or has a real internet connection?? ROTFL, but you can make changes, help put what you want there after maybe voting on it?? I think there is a vote option at that site administration also, lots of things but i need to hear a yes or no or whatever so I can spend the time on other things we have to do. Thanks

I think somebody should look in the members section here at the site, and send a private message to every member that is registered here that is under 18 to be your friend first off then tell them to register at the new junior forums, etc Thats not a bad idea if I had time I would do that If I was under 18 and wanted to be something. lol 

I think someone should make a video on how to use that site just to help the other young anglers figure out how to use it

Go spend a while looking at it talk to Alan I will give him admin functions, find somebody who wants to be a global Moderator get all these things and ideas organized. 

Yeah steve ill do it, but just remember i still have school to jumble in with the jr and this forum too, but ill check it a few times a day. Ill head over and set up some stuff, ive got some ideas.

I doesnt matter to me you guys are doing it i am just doing what you guys say you want or dont want. 

Like you said, i can do the admin thing, but no real point if no one signs up.
