All Newbies - PLEASE READ!

Thanks!

Excited to see all that Fierce Board has to offer!

 

[Power1979]

First off, we are thrilled you have chosen to be part of the largest cheerleading board in the world!

This board is great! You can learn alot about cheer (high school, allstar, college, etc), what is going on behind the scenes, find a choreographer, make friends, etc.

We are however VERY protective of our board. On more than one occasion (a lot actually), we have had people (either new or old) come on here with the sole purpose of creating drama. We eventually find out who you are and the result is usually a permanent ban on the board.

Please keep in mind this board has a WIDE age range. Keep your posts appropriate and consider the person you may be responding too is a minor. We do have an over 18 section, however that DOES NOT give you carte blanche to be rude and insulting.

And as for rude and insulting, do not make your posts personal. Remember these are young athletes on these teams. Treat others how you yourself would like to be treated, as well as your mother, sister, brother, etc.

Before you can post anywhere in the Cheerleading specific forums you must make 3 posts here in the newbie section and have been registered for 72 hours (counting from the moment you registered). You can comment on existing threads in this section or create new ones, but creating new threads with the sole purpose of fulfilling your post requirement is frowned upon. Please use this thread for that purpose.

Here are the Top Ten rules for Newbies on Fierce Board:
(Written by our very own, Sharkdad)

1. If you're new, ask newbie questions in the newbie forum first.
You will get friendlier answers in here than the main board.

2. Before you ask a question or post your opinion, see if someone else already has.
Make sure to read the entire thread and use the search bar at the top of the boards. If in doubt, PM someone and they should be happy to help.

3. Ask the right questions in the right sections
Try and keep the music questions in the music section, the allstar questions in the allstar section... etc...

4. Keep posts on topic with the subject.
Don’t go into a post about a competition and ask “how do I improve my BHS?” If it succeeds in derailing the conversation going on it’s called “hijacking” a thread.

5. Have a purpose for your post!
All posts (negative and positive) are welcome, but only if they have a reason behind them. Saying a program/team/routine sucks JUST because is not a reason, and your opinion will instantly be discredited around here

6. Don't make statements about how other people/teams/gyms are thinking or feeling. Think: the only person's opinion I should express is my own.

7. Stick to facts. Try looking it up yourself or at least ask respectfully.
You will learn a lot this way. You should never post anything like “Team X at Gym Y is going to wear polka dot socks next week” if you only read it on Facebook or through someone else’s conversation. It is entirely different to say “I think I heard that. . . .” or finish your statement with “in my opinion, but I don’t know for sure”
 
8. Keep personal accusations, questions, other stuff not relevant to more than one person private.
That's what Private Messages (PMs) are for.

9. Apologize when you get something wrong.
We’re all giving opinions here. Have respect for others and admit if you are wrong.

10. Above all, when in doubt, have respect for others and their opinions.
This will help you decide how to word your posts, and probably how to “agree to disagree” if need be.


Again, WELCOME...to the FIERCEST board ever!

Happy posting!

Gotcha!!!

Hi!
I'm new here and looking for some awesome voiceovers for my teams this year!

We have

Mini: Palmetto Pixies
Youth: Palmetto Starz and Carolina Sass
Junior: Carolina Spirit, Royal Spirit, and Palmetto Elite
Senior: Royal Flash

Any/as many voiceovers for any of the teams would be sooooo helpful.

Thanks so much!

Hello

 

[adrianavanwyk]

I'm not technologically savvy, but I hope I am doing this right! This is my second post.

 

[adrianavanwyk]

I'm hoping to get answers here or perhaps in another forum but...
I just PCSd to SC from AZ. I was in cheer in HS and had level 4 skills, but that was 7 years ago. I was working on my level 2 when I was stationed in Arizona in hopes of gaining my skills back and maybe even level 5 skills. However, since I've been "back at it", I have realized how amazing and awesome cheer makes me feel. I miss it so much! I am going to Rockstar to work on level 2 and do some privates to refresh on stunting and what not. Now, be nice here please...what are the odds of getting up to lvl 5 and making on an open team? I know that I won't have many options to be on an allstar team as I am over 18. I just miss cheer so much and really want to be a part of it again! I really am looking for answers to be in the cheer family again.

Of course it's possible for you to make an i5 or open 6 team. A lot of it will depend on what gym you tryout at and what they need for athletes at the time.

Might be a little harder for you to get the skills back being slightly older but it is definitely possible.

There are a couple of threads in the main forums asking similar questions if you want to look them up as well.

Good luck.
