I would consider myself a "veteran" on here, I've been a member since April of 09 so I say welcome to you [tm]! I'm LightningMan117, but most people call me by LM or LM117. This site has seen its better days sadly, as many original members have come and gone, including the mods, but if new members like you keep coming along, who knows how long this site could last! I've made many good friends on here with people I don't know the first name of off the top of my head, and I hope you do the same.

A basic introduction to new members is here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2305 . This is the best introduction we have to our site and it introduces some promentient members of current and past on here

A short history of the Forum is here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3932 . Very nice job done by jacobye46 on what's happened in the forum's history. Also names many prominent members.

A few personal tips from myself:

-DON'T SPAM!!! I cannot stress this enough. In order to gain respect on here you must learn to make meaningful posts. I give a certain amount of leanencey to new members as we all take time to mature on here from what I've seen, but trust me, its more important than you think. For more information, look here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3294&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=spam . This is a topic created by the DrMario, and gives some good ideas on how to stop spam.

-Ask, and you will be answered. The "vets" here know their Power Pros and can help you with almost any issue in the game, and give you advice on the various modes. You can poke around some of the 2008 topics to find some pretty neat stuff about the game too.

-Season logs, whether it be for Power Pros or other games, are very popular and are a fun way to be active. Chose a team, any team :lol:

-The Games, although they are basicly spam topics, are actualy quite fun to play IF you and the others are creative with your answers. Otherwise its a real bore (see last few posts of the "Your Banned" topic)

One thing I want to get striaght, MaddenTalk is NOT our sister site. It's not even started by our founder Darkshade!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy yourself here and if you need anything, ask me, and I'll do my best to help.

LM117

Wow, I just noticed this comment, very well put LM, very well put.

Powerprosfan, if you don't mind me asking, where did you get your avatar, and picture in your signature from? I find them very nice.

Feel free to call me PPFan, if you wish.
But regarding your question a user that went on only briefly (he goes by the name of "mackdunnie") made it for me, he is/was a graphic designer, and was going to make a site about Power Pros, too bad he never got around to it... :(

But I do give my thanks to him, for my awesome avatar, and picture in my signature.

Oh, alright, I would imagine his site would have been nice. It is too bad he never got around to making it.

Yeah, it would have been quite nice. And slick, and pretty, and all that good stuff.

AWESOME! An active, new member! Just stay active. :wink: I'm BrewersFuzz, I am one of the newer members like you, I joined at the beginning of this past summer. I don't know much about Power Pros, but I will definitely try to help if you have any questions. Welcome to the forum!

Howdy.
I'm stevenjackson39, but you can call me Sjax, or The Coolest Guy On The Forum (you don't have to capitalize that :wink:). Others may note that I'm the leading poster, but posts don't really matter on here.

Anyways, you look like quite a good guy, so glad to have you on here. As others have said, this site has fallen on sorta hard times, what with no new American PP games and people tending to spam and get into arguments, but right now it seems to have calmed a bit.

Everything's basically been covered, so just ask someone if you need anything, and if you want any help with anything, PM me and I'll be happy to answer... depending on the question, of course. :lol:

Oh yes, and I have amazing music taste. Just sayin'. :mrgreen:

And if I come off as cocky, a lot of times that's just a joke. I think being narcissistic works really well for humor if people know you're joking and not actually a pompous douche, so... yeah.

OK, I may as well introduce myself, too. I'm Zumi, and I guess being on here for over a year makes me a vet. :lol: Though I'm not really as good at PP as everyone else here, I can still help out sometimes if you need it. Yeah, everyone's covered everything pretty much. I'd just like to elaborate a little on spam (How many times have we used that word now? :lol: ) Just avoid making 1-word posts that don't have to be said. For example, "ok" "yeah" "whatever." And don't post back-to-back in the same topic a few minutes apart. We have a handy dandy edit button for that. :wink: And unlike sjax, I have horrible taste in music! :mrgreen:

I'll give an intro if everyone else is. I'm redsfan, and I joined a month and a half ago. That makes me the third newest active member. I didn't make a great impression, but the members respect me a bit more now. I spend most of my time on the music thread, and like Sjax, I'm a music addict. I spend a lot of time playing power pros, and can make pretty good success guys w/o saving and reloading. Well, that's about it. Enjoy PPWorld! :)

Thanks everyone! I do hope that we all get along (that may have sounded very cheesy :lol:) and that, hopefully, someday this forum will come back to life. Power Pros '11, anyone?

You know, I haven't even really introduced myself.

Well, I am Powerprosfan31, I joined in August of last year, when the site was declining. I would hope that I am a respected member of the forum, and try my best to keep people informed of the Japanese baseball and Power Pros world (with my season log, and other news on the Power Pros front in Japan). I hope that you, [tm], stay here on this site for awhile, and enjoy your stay here.

May I say welcome one more time?
Might as well.

Welcome, [tm], welcome to Power Pros World! :D

I'll introduce myself:

Hi there, i'm PowerPro Jr, aka PPJr, PPJunior, and PPJ. I'm very active on this forum and spell pretty much everything right. I am the top-posting Cards fan here, but i'm not the most important one here. That honor belongs to Wyl, a mod. I also like the Dodgers, since I'm from Cali. I am one of the few African-American members here. I enjoy PowerPros very much and will be frequently asking for requests. My Success characters are either really good or really bad. However, i like Season Mode the best. I'm nearing 800 posts, and will be at 1,000 in no time. I'm a younger guy, as evidenced by the Jr in my name, but will try to put up quality posts. I am one of the few people that the infamous sms12 was nice to, so that gives you an idea what good of a guy i am. So anyways, have a great time at MLBPPWorld, and join the fight against 2K Sports to release MLBPP09!!!


Everything you need to know about me, coupled with the fact that I am a dominat0r in SimYard. ;)
