    As you've obviously seen if you're reading this, bballworld.us has been purchased by SportsTwo, and http://bballworld.us now points to the NBA forums here. If you didn't notice it before, there is a message linked at the top for you guys explaining what's going on. </p>

    To reiterate, your user names, posts, PMs and graphics, all the good stuff you've created there are here <u>They aren't lost forever!</u> Player Comparisons are in the Player Comparison Forum. Raptors posts are in the Raptors forum, Graphics posts are in the Graphics Central forums. Your games are in the games forums. And so forth. You can navigate almost anywhere on SportsTwo quickly via the drop down menus at the top of the page.</p>

    Welcome aboard. We understand this is a huge and sudden change for you guys, and not everything will seem positive. On the things you don't like, give us a chance to fix them. Take a look around, and we think you'll find things you do like. We have a sportsbook simulation, trivia game, high quality news feeds and game threads, and stats, quick boards and good discussions among other things. An NBA trade checker and a comprehensive historical stats section are in the works, as well as fantasy football and a host of football related stats. Take a look around and we hope you like what you see.</p>

    And introduce yourselves and let us know who you are, what you like and what you don't like. Some of us you may know already, as most of the staff here at S2 have been posting on helping to run sports boards for a long time. Our goal here is to create a great community that everyone can enjoy. </p>

    Meh, I'm wondering why we never heard anything about this. </p>

    </p>

    Also, in the message above there is a comment about how Forum Moderators from BBW will be offered the same position here. I was offered a position as the Wizards team leader and I never got the job because the switch happened before I was officially instated. I have the PM that offered it to me and a few other memebers, will I be able to be a team leader here?</p>

    Yeah, I think I'm gone too. I'm surprised that Tony did this, damn BBW has been around for a while. Cavsrule hit me up on AIM and tell me if you're going to go on another forum, i'll join you. AIM: Aliassnlfan99

    Yep, good bye of the legacy of BBW. Good times boys, but seems as if Combs doesn't know what the fuck he just lost. If someone makes another site, please find me. </p>

    GA, I'd be very happy to have another Wiz fan on board. I can tell from reading the posts you've contributed a lot, so if you're up for it so are we</p>

    I will give it a try but I'm not sure how long I'll stay because this is a sudden change.</p>

    </p>

    If I feel as though I don't like it here, I'll inform you guys before I leave. However, I would like to test out being a mod.</p>

    We should've expected it to end after we finally finished an All-Era Mock Draft.

    As far as leaving, obviously we can't stop you from leaving, but do you really think it's the template that made bbw good for you guys? </p>

    I imagine it was the people and the sense of community, and the way things looked and operated was something you were used to. Well, we can change to make things more comfortable to you, but the bigger point is that there's a lot of good stuff here, and a lot of good people who want to talk hoops and have fun. Give us a chance and we'll work very hard to make this a good community for you. </p>

    Yes. That is not a problem. As MikeDC said, your posts and body of work are here. Welcome to the site.</p>
