I don't know if anyone's been following this story, but What A Maneuver may be facing mass pullouts of storefronts after they posted and promoted a very right-wing QAnon-esque t-shirt design. If you look at their twitter, you'll find it.

I saw it and...yeah, that's a yikes from me.

I'm so old, dont judge me...

how do i post gifs...

Same way you post regular images.

On create a post, click on the 'Insert Image' button and paste the url of the GIF (make sure the link ends in .gif, you may have to open the image on a separate tab to get that)




Once you paste it should show up as below in the code, or you can preview to make sure it posted correctly

Theoretically, if we know someone in a position of power on this board did something unfair…is there any recourse? Sorry for the vagueness but I guess I’m asking who is actively in charge/handles such matters?

Well, it's HMark's board so I would say him. We don't really have a set power structure or something like that.

Given the controversies in the PWTees/WAM thread are the mods going to address the elephant in the room?

We're going through the process of taking the store down now. It's not that simple of a process, especially since they're probably being flooded by these kinds of requests.

And I don't really appreciate the confrontational tone here, implying that the store still being up somehow means that we as a mod group and the board as a whole condones their stance.

Yeah, this sorta thing is easier said than done especially in wake of the current controversy. Whoever set up the store from FAN is also going to take a financial hit because the store startup fee is apparently non-refundable.

you'll also notice we pulled the thread that was announcing our shirts the same day the questionable shirt showed up.

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

And there's also the fact that, this isn't within the scope of the regular mod group. The vast majority of us are just with the board only. There's only a couple of us that manage the other stuff like the website and the merch, and the merch is the most tricky of them all since that was set up ages ago and that likely involves people who aren't as active with FAN anymore.

Sorry it came off as confrontational, it was not my intent. I posted the question here rather than in the thread itself to avoid confrontation or shifting the focus of that thread do FAN itself.

I never bought anything from WAM, but was pretty sure that was where the FAN t-shirts were sold through since I knew it wasn’t PWTees. When I tried to confirm that by looking at the shirt thread that had been pinned for years I was surprised that, that thread just disappeared.

I probably should’ve just PMed Joe Neglia my question to avoid coming off confrontational. Although the silver lining of asking my question publicly is that others know you were quick to take action rather than doing nothing for hours/days which WAM itself was criticized for.

[EoE: Well There's Your Problem]

No problem… It’s just that “elephant in the room” often implies that one is trying to ignore a situation and we just haven’t been. We’re doing all we can on this side of the FAN setup to separate ourselves from them as soon as possible and take down our merch, but as I said earlier, a lot of that is outside the scope of the majority of the mod group.

Sorry if this has been addressed here but with Supercard of Honor ending and it being clear that AEW and ROH will have cross over will we be combining company forums or will ROH stay on (W)rest?

Why was the last thread locked early?

a wizard did it!

honestly I dont remember, but it could have been due to the older version of proboards not being stable enough to withstand threads going 30 pages... more likely to have been a rogue wizard (dont think of the 90's x-men cartoon version of Rogue dressed as a wizard.) attacking the thread though.

[Hurbster]

Definitely a wizard.

Technically it was a mage but close enough.

Can we adress the elephant in the room, how are we going to remove it? it's blocking the exit
