Poll: How Did You Find This Site?
« on: December 05, 2009, 07:07:55 AM »
I was just wondering how we ended up at this site.

Did you learn about it from another bowler, find a link on another bowling site or end up here after an internet search on bowling, etc?

I found this site after doing a search for bowling ball reviews many years ago when I was trying to find out some info on a ball.  Ended up visiting this site and bowlingballreviews and it took awhile before I discovered the forums.  After lurking for many months, I registered.

I was roaming around the web, looking for bowling ball related sites. I was thinking about setting up a website where bowlers could come to buy, sell, or trade used bowling equipment.

 When I saw that there were already several such sites out there, I decided not to, and just stuck to the site that was the best, most suited for me.

I was looking for ball information and found bowlingballreviews.com  One of the reviews mentioned this site and that was that.

I was looking to replace an old bowling ball and came upon this site and bowlingballreviews for information on the different choices out there.  Lurked around for a while before I finally signed up.

Seems like most bowlers are finding this site on their own, not from hearing about it from others.  Interesting.

I was hanging out down at the barn with a few of my sheep and some locals, discussing velcro mittens, oversized workboots, shock collars, hoof clamps, stuff like that, when I mentioned that what I really needed was a place where I could be an "Internet Tough Guy".  You know, a place where I could attack others for their political and religious views, and make fun of all the panzy, feminized sports "heroes" that bawl like women when they win - or lose.  One of them mentioned this site, and the rest is history.

I was a member of the site when it was eteamz and then transfered over when Scott started this site.

Don't remember what I was looking for or even what search engine I used at the time.
