Vandals on Forum

I have had to take the forums off of the website because a number of unscrupulous people had been spamming it with posts for unsolicited websites and other products which aren't even related to the site. This is not what the site is for. I regret that I have had to take these measures but I felt left with little choice. I don't yet know whether the forum will be re-instated at a later date but it won't be anytime soon and it will have to be set up with every user being approved by a moderator.

I am very disappointed that people would stoop to this type of behaviour as I can't really see how it would help them much anyway.

The site will still post new additions but due to the vandalism perpetrated by these users, all posts will now have to be requested by email and I will add them myself.

Please feel free to suggest or request any additions to wrestling booker or links etc to external sites. If they are at all related to wrestling or anything else that might be useful to users of the site then I am very likely to add them so please don't be put off by what these 'advertisers' have done. I don't even mind if you want to advertise something - just let me know and if I deem it suitable I'll probably put it on.

Back on the go!

Well, that's all the exams over and I can relax a bit again. The site is starting to attract more hits than I had expected this far!
I have been busy today doing some more of my other web site project. I am still not ready to release the name of it but it should be live in the not too distant future. I am very excited about it as it takes a different look at the world than Wrestling Booker.
The fifth article in my series is taking a bit longer to complete than the others since I am having to do a lot more research in areas that are harder to find than the first ones required. I guess this means it will be even more important when it is finished but it is challenging to get the information collected and verified.
I hope to contribute more soon to the site than I have in the last week or so and hopefully more of you will find the time to let me know what you think of it.

Inactivity

I won't be doing much to the website or probably this blog for a few days as I have some very important exams this week.

Post lockdown

Well we eventually got to see TNA lockdown in Britain on Wednesday and I was quite pleased with it. It wasn't as amazing as I had heard but still very good. Nice to see Joe as champion - he deserves it.

I read a good piece in the Sun today by Paul Heyman which was less than complimentary about the new ECW announcer! Click here to see a summary of it.

I have been developing a new project that I am keeping under wraps for now but I think it will be awesome!

TNA Article

I have been very busy recently with family things but I have managed to get the next article on the TNA claim to World Championship status.
The site is staring to get a few more hits now that google has indexed it and I think it will continue to grow. I am not going in for any deceitful or unscrupulous ways of promoting wrestlingbooker.com but instead just letting people know about it and hoping that the quality and usefulness of the site will become apparent to people and they will then frequent it more and more and tell their friends about it. I think this fits well with the ethos of honesty and trustworthyness that I am trying to build into the site from the very beginning.

TNA Lockdown is being shown in UK tonight so I am looking forward to that!

A few people have gone to the trouble of contacting me to comment on how much they like the site. I am very pleased about this and grateful to them for their comments. So far, I have had a 100% positive response but if anyone has any comments or suggestions either positive or negative then don't be afraid to let me know because I will value your comments either way.

A few days rest

The last few days have seen the publication of the 3rd part of the series of articles on world titles. I have also been pleased to see that the site is now indexed by google so hopefully things will start rolling now. There is now a contribution to the wikipedia artcle on wrestling slang that I have added from the glossary of pro wrestling terms on my pro wrestling dream cards website at www.wrestlingbooker.com

I have been working long hours this week though so I haven't had time to put much new up on the site this week but I hope to add some more this weekend if I don't have to work too much so remember to check out the site sometime.

Ps . If any one out there is interested in this sort of site I would be very grateful if you let your friends know about it and joint the new forum. Its free and there's no obligation to post or do anything so why not register now when you can get any name you want on a wrestling forum.

pps. If you run a website or blog yourself, please feel free to let other folks know about my new site by linking to it.

Goodbye for now.

Part 2 of championship article

Today I put the finishing touches to the second part of my ten part article on the debate over what wrestling belts can legitimately claim world status and how they trace their heritage to the Undisputed belts held by Lou Thesz and Georg Hackenschmidt. If you want to read part 2 - The NWA's claim then click here to read it on my website. I've been working on other things today so I haven't done a lot else for the site today.
