Questions about the WBO

Yah probably.
how come this guy does not have that "Send ______________ a private message."?
is he a alien or something?
You can choose to have your private message setting on or off. He chose off so thats why it is not showing up

theres a new beyblade site so check it out and register
http://www.w11.zetaboards.com/BeybladeWorld/
it need members''

is this website trying to copy WBO?

There are hundreds of people in the world that enjoy/have enjoyed beyblade ... what's wrong with making your own site for one ?
You cannot say that they are trying to 'copy' the WBO ...
And don't think they are, since they'd probably use MyBB instead of Zetaboards ...
well i think its wrong that their using wbo private messeges to advertise for it
Who was the PM from ?

and is dimsum2u the only WBO Authorized Seller?
5 is the maximum number of credits one can get in one format of a tournament?
While surfing via mobile,it shows online when I open the site,but when I check my posts in threads,I don't see the online status
Why can't I not report posts via mobile.
Whenever I press the report button,the URL bar shows javascriptvoid;(0)

There are no "basic necessities" : it is the product of a conversation between the World Beyblade Organization and the seller where we come out with benefits for each side.

The maximum is not five ...

He specified in his controls that he does not wish to receive private messages from other Members.
How hard was it to really get the WBO started? Was it created for fun, or just because of some sort of demand?
IIRC, it was created after Off the chain (?) closed down. So just for fun ...

Actually, it was started right in the middle of the Beyblade hiatus, and even under those circumstances, it was a success, but that was mainly due to two factors : 'left-over' fans following the community where it went, and Brad's advertising skills and innovative ideas. You should read the first Brad Day announcement for further details :

To add to this:

From what I know, OTC closed and went to Beyblade Forums, but admins were inactive, so posts could not be made, etc.
So Brad just created Beywiki to have all of those Bladers who were left over ...
Inactive, incompetent and generally not properly involved in the activities they started.
Did Bey Brad start Off the Chain as well as making the WBO? And also, congratulations WBO on having 80,000 members!
Yes Brad made Off the Chain in 2003. He later made the WBO. That link that Kai-V posted is very helpful if you want to know that kind of stuff.

when and where are the world champions
Stupid
When are the world champions? That doesn't make sense. If you meant championships, we don't know.

I am sure that he meant "championship", however I think that it will not be organized soon, probably we have to attend a new series about beyblade to view a new world championship (this may not happen ever) Smile

Aand to add to this, I think it is worth mentioning that there were numerous other communities formed after the closure of OtC, such as: Lightning Revolver, Fun City (though, this wasn't really Beyblade-focused), and BeyEternal. This is in addition to forums that already existed like Damashii (which closed a few months after OtC), Beyblade Spirit, BeyUK, etc.

Beyblade Forums was really the forum that started to bring everything together, especially once Brad got involved (and subsequently moved all of the activity from the ZeroPositive Wiki (BBF's wiki) to his new site, Beywiki).
Ah, I see. So Brad is a real legend throughout the Beyblading world in general, haha.
I'm sorry if this doesn't belong here, I'm in a bit of a rush at the moment; So I'm trying to make a thread, I clicked post, and nothing happens, directs me to the home page. I tried to post it again to see what happened, and it said I already posted this thread, please visit it, etc. It doesn't show up though?!?
What's going on?

Where did you try posting ? If it was in the General Discussion forum, you should read the SPAM topic that is stickied.

Yes it was, and I did read the Spam topic. I'm confused, what am I supposed to do? (I'm sorry if this sounds dumb, but I really am confused)
Just wait till a mod approves it, they'll put the thread up themselves.

Alright, thanks Outnumbered! Appreciate the reply! I was just confused if I had to wait or enter in one of those robot-account captcha thingies
Thanks again!
