Well, hopefully. For some reason Flami wasn’t able to register, dunno what that was about. [Here](http://pub50.ezboard.com/bcanadope) it is. Tell me what you think, such as design issues, ideas for additional forums, etc. The banner will be a red x until I can find some hosting that allows direct linking. You have to register an account for it to become viewable to you. Also, I’m still looking for mods/admins. Requirements are that you are canadian or at least canadian born. Anybody interested can IM me at aslan1of1narnia or at [sc\_rush1@hotmail.com](mailto:sc_rush1@hotmail.com). Please come and enjoy! ---

I spent a good amount of time solely on the frontpage, but not the actual forums, which were pretty easy. The colors kept on looking off, so I put a template for the main page on instead. And the banner was loading up in my computer, I guess because it was in the cache, but it was loading “No Direct linking allowed” to everybody else. ---

I’ve registered (as HarliQwynn) and tried to post a reply, but it is telling me that I need a special registration password before I can post, and to contact the board administrator. ---

Is it restricted to Canadians or are other people allowed to lurk and occasionally post? ---

Try now. Optihut, yes, Americans may register and post. The main focus of the site is about Canada, but we allow foreign people to speak up, too. ---

Working beautifully now. **Aslan** , if you are unable to find enough moderators, I’ll take on the responsibility. I would have been more willing if I were still working at a computer all day. But since I’m not anymore, feel free to call me in, if not enough others speak up. ---

I’ll register as soon as I find an appropriate name (Strangely, this name and my RL name are both chosen.) Anyone have any ideas on how to incorporate my current name into something Canadian? ---

I have registered under **CuriousCanuck** (original, I know). I will also moderate a forum if you wish.Picture me as the perfect cross between Manny and Coldfire. Wait. DOn’t picture that. The results of that could be _scary_ to say the least… 😛 ---

I’m registered now as featherlou (another original person, yup!). Well, I’m Canadian, and the two cats I’m named after are Canadian, so I figure it’s a Canadian username. Great idea, **Aslan**. Now we have someplace to go and bitch about Murkans. (Kidding! Just kidding!) ---

Done. Well I think I’m done, find out when I get home and complete whatever odd masonic rituals are needed to finaliaze my registration. Registered as … wait for it … Grey. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/canadope-is-up-and-running/191401.md?page=2)
