Yeah, the spam seemed to be in Chinese or some such other language. It should all be removed from the forum at this point. I notice that the removed spam posts do still show up on the feed of the front page of the site, I'll see if I can do something about that. UPDATE - Ok, I think all traces of the spam are gone. Let me know if otherwise.

FYI - in response to the recent uptick in spam, I've changed it so new accounts have to be manually approved. For prospective new members, sorry, this will create a delay between when you register and when you can begin posting. I hope to switch it back to an automated registration system once the spam problem dies down.

I love these stories Man of the people: T.J. Oshie rides Metro again, then is one of Capitals’ heroes in Game 4 https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/man-of-the-people-tj-oshie-rides-metro-again-then-is-one-of-capitals-heroes-in-game-4/2018/06/05/79db1fe0-6817-11e8-bea7-c8eb28bc52b1_story.html?utm_term=.84e1b6ee0fa6

Yeah.

As expected, 01grad wins! http://siouxsports.com/hockey/bracketleaders.php

With one game remaining, it looks like andTheHomeofTheSioux!!! wins if Notre Dame does (though jimdahl ties for second!), or 01grad wins if Duluth does. http://siouxsports.com/hockey/bracketleaders.php

Definitely some Western bias in the picks... a lot of love for Denver, a 2-seed, and very little for Cornell.

I dunno, Schloss has a forum account, no one's stopping him from submitting! (Ok, I guess I am, it's too late now)

Haha, good call. The season ends in a win and people still complain about the score staying up

With an unusually short window of just about 24 hours (sorry!) and the first time in the history of the bracket challenge that UND isn't in the field, it should be interesting. Let's see what happens! http://siouxsports.com/hockey/bracket.php Who will join the illustrious list below? 2017 UND-1 / Oxbow6 / Redneksioux / iluvdebbies / Stms 2016 UND1981 / stack / nhockey30 / ringneck28 / bigskyvikes (UND National Championship year) 2015 WiSioux 2014 johndahl 2013 FSSD/Brainerd Sioux 2012 mj3und 2011 tho0505 2009 Big A HG 2008 willtippen 2007 seanpc03 2006 teamsioux 2005 mynameiscuomo 2004 paul62/BigGreyAnt41/brew003/UP2SKI

Yeah, that's just a width/display issue. That's one of the few pages on the site I haven't rewritten to be phone-friendlier because I only trot it out once a year.

Ok, I whipped this one up FAST. I tested it a bit, but please let me know if you find any problems. I'll post it more broadly in an hour or so if there are no problems: http://siouxsports.com/hockey/bracket.php Though we're only going to have about one day of entries, it will be interesting to see how it goes in the first UND-less year!

Haha, you know, it occurred to me on like Tuesday afternoon (completely slipped my mind last weekend), but then the lack of complaint led me not to put in the effort. Let me see what I can do.

Please drop the discussion of the personal lives of non-public figures. Thanks.

This was pretty off-topic... the topic of this thread is NDSU, and taunting UND's performance to distract from that could be considered trolling. We also could have done without the responses to this. Everyone back to NDSU football, please. Thanks!

There should be an arrow to the far right of the green bar that you can click on to re-expand it.

A "UND Athletic Department" forum would be obvious and easy enough. Is there really enough traffic to justify it, would it be better to rebrand "Other Sports" as "Athletic Department and Other Sports", or do you think this is a situation where the creation of the forum will drive additional discussion on those topics? I'm less sure about the other. The basic idea is to separate UND-related news from other (Grand Forks, North Dakota, and regional) news?

Hmmm... the "UND Sports" category title is gray on green. But, it is clickable. (Though clicking it just narrows the list of forums from the full list to those in that category). Am I looking at the right thing, or am I on the wrong track?

In a thread, there should be a "Follow" box near the upper right. Click that, and you'll be following that thread. What following means is somewhat up to you. It can notify you when you load the site, send you an email with any new replies, etc...

Ok, I think this works. Thanks for pointing it out everyone.

Yeah, this is nothing more than trolling at this point.

Huh, sorry about that, I honestly hadn't given that situation much thought. But you're all right, it has to change. I could move it as a subcategory to other sports, and add a "(retired)" tag, but then it would still float at the top of other sports because its a subcat. I could just merge the posts into other sports, but then it would lose its individuality as a separate forum. I could also just add an "archive" or "retired" category, and move it as a subcat to that. Then it would still have its separate identity, but clearly be historical/not seeming more important than active sports.

Hmmm.... do you see them all now? http://siouxsports.com/mens-hockey/schedule/und/ I do, but could be a bug in the HTML that makes it fail on some browsers.

Yep, hawks is tough to work with. No doubt about it.
