Banner Team Wants You!

[BuSaPuNk]

Alright guys with everything coming to a boil and excitement of the upcoming season for everyone the banner team is looking for volunteers.

Members are asked to sign up in this thread here : http://forums.redpatchboys.ca/showth...r-contact-info

This thread will be a signup for non members or people that will not have membership until the new season begins.

Anyone interested helping out with banners and TIFO's or know people that might be can direct them to this thread. Everyone who wants to be put on a list to be contacted for when the banner team will be doing painting, tracing, ect is asked to PM myself or PM Fort York Redcoat here : http://forums.redpatchboys.ca/member...t-York-Redcoat with contact information.

This information will only be used to contact people for banner team projects and nothing else.

This is an easy fast way to join up with fellow TFC supporters and even learn more about the group and what we as a group stand for. It's very informal and were all pretty friendly well most of us lol.

Just post here with any questions, concerns, ect or confirmation of PMs to us.

Thanks

We look forward to hearing from all of you and are really excited about working with everyone.

LMAO... a big fat zero! Also I'm not sure why this is not the same thread as the one in the boards!?

Anyhow... Let's get moving - NOW. It's our turn to step up

This one is being put for just non members and visitors that read and might want to get involved.

There's other details in the members thread that people wouldn't want available in public.

[__wowza]

as always.. theirishembassy@gmail.com; i can design and/or paint.


for those of you on the fence about joining:
the banner teams where i got to know a lot of the RPB. i would drop by social events, but was really too anxious to jump in and introduce myself to anyone. banner painting sessions are super laid back, and there's (as corny as this sounds) a real sense of accomplishment seeing something you helped create being held up by your fellow supporters. if you're looking for someway to get more involved with the group, this is the perfect place to start!!

Gotcha! I linked straigjh from FB so wasn't sure what was going on...


Anyhow, this is it!

The Home Opener is our biggest day, all eyes will be on us... From supporters around the league and beyond. This is your chance to be a part of this... Who doesn't want to say "that was my design that went up there... My idea... I helped to paint that monster banner."

TFC delivered and opened their wallets with these signings, Now it's our turn to step up... We get one day, to showcase what we can do...

One game... One day...

Let's do this!

You can send a PM to me with your contact info for now. Membership might be just gearing up as we are getting ready for paint sessions ect. Best to get your information in so you don't miss out.

Almost 1000 views in this thread. The only guy that expresses interest in showing up to put paint to fabric gets told to buy a membership first.

Anyone else see a fundamental problem here?

Sorry, I know. No need to correct me. The main thread is in the members section. Looking forward to seeing the awesome RPB banners this year!!!

Members and non members are always welcome to banner paintings.

brad was asking about the banner thread that is in the members section.

The reason the banner thread is in the members section is so we don't pop all of our ideas on a available thread for everyone to see so we have some sort of surprise and so ideas aren't stolen especially as a bunch are good ideas.

There was no need for that comment at all. This thread is so non members and people that arnt signed up on the boards might be more inclined to sign up and get involved.

And in brads case if they have interest in becoming members all the better. We're looking to expand availability to people especially with the new optimism of this season.

Busa. I been around since year 1. Confer in the executive bathroom and they will tell you that what I post here is no different than what I say to you in the stands or at the bar.

Read my posts going back 3-4 years when I predicted the day we were on the path to getting owned at BMO by UMO2. Got laughed at. And last year that came to fruition. Jokes on me.

We have a second chance with renewed interest incoming this year. Not everyone in life gets that luxury. For the love of fuck boys (and yes I am looking at all of you who know me / especially exec), lets not kill ourselves twice.

I completely understand being guarded about banner sessions - no one wants to be had with a comeback. At the same dude has 2500+ posts. Doubt he put in that effort in only to throw tfc under the bus. Thank him for his initiative. I'll pay his membership out of pocket and thank him for his contribution. Where do I send the emt or paypal to? pm me and done

Lastly. Thank you James. A few more guys with your thought process we are back on track.

I'm not understanding your thought process.

It's not a problem having guys throw TFC under the bus having access to the information. It's the ability to have people looking to throw us under the bus not have easy access to the process.

We're not sitting here on high horses. We have an opportunity to create a better atmosphere with more people willing to get involved.

I don't care about what happened in the past. We should be looking and planning forward.

I think I can speak for the majority of the group when I can say we are all looking to become better everywhere.

That includes in the stands, with banners and TIFO, community involvement, ect. We should be building all of what we do to where we were and should be.... The best supporters group in North America.

Red,

Good to see you're still around... FYI... I requested for James to have acces to the member's banners section of our forums without membership on January 13th

all of this through pm's back in early January.

now, there are alot of assumptions about RPB and alot of hatred... People have been wanting for this group to fail since day 1

my ask is for people to move away from the RPB hatred. It's never done any good and won't accomplish anything.

sorry. you must be new around here.

No I am not. But thanks for derailing the thread .

The reason the banner thread is in the members section is so we don't pop all of our ideas on a available thread for everyone to see so we have some sort of surprise and so ideas aren't stolen especially as a bunch are good ideas.

My apologies in advance if this derails the thread further. I think it would be a better idea to have them public. I understand the surprise point, but in terms of stealing your idea I don't think that would happen. The Kings, O109 and U-Sector don't make tifos and banners. I'm in charge of SG114's banner team and I wouldn't dream of poaching an idea. We have plenty. The other usual suspects are basically retired and also wouldn't dream of stealing your ideas.

But more importantly, it would be in the best interest of support for TFC in general if we coordinated more on these things. I only have a vague idea of what you have planned for the home opener but I know we have a pretty massive project going so the whole south end will end up looking a bit disjointed if we don't work together more. For big days I think a public approach (or at least more collaborative approach) would make for a bigger bang on the occasion and support the team more effectively.

My two cents.

Well I know we reached out and the information wasn't really there. Don't know what to say other than maybe shoot one of us (Pete, Tom, myself) an email or text. I can't be any more available to have the conversation.

I agree with this whole-heartedly!

Banners are one thing, and can be specific to a Supporter Group.
But when it comes to TIFO type displays... They are much more effective when more people are involved!


That is one thing that has never really been seen at BMO... it's something that the Pacific NW teams seem to do the best (in NA anyway)
