Hello Fighters,

New Interest group and forum design:

As you might have noticed, today, we have launched the new interest group layout. At the same time, we merged the forum and interested groups into one page. Convenient!

The functions stay the same as before. If you join an interest group, it will be displayed on your profile.
Refreshing the (10-year-old) site code for these features is also an essential step towards providing an APP.

Help your locals

When COVID19 broke out, we first donated half of your donations to the WHO fund for a month.
As the second step, we did quickly launched FightersAid, and we sent cash out to a few small Clubs and individuals.

The final stage is that for this month, we stop accepting donations entirely. We want to encourage you to directly support any local business or charity!
Why not go to your small gym around the corner, buy a yearly pass, but then don't visit. - You can still visit the gym if you like, perhaps when it is safe, but regardless you help this small business to survive during a crazy time.

To make up for this, we are opening all donor perks to everyone - (almost) no strings attached.
Requirement: Your account must be 30 days or older. (To donate also required that your account was 30 days old)
To not crash our server, we have to limit video viewing to one video per 10min. (Sorry, but we have not the capacity of a streaming platform like YouTube. And to many video requests could slow down the site too much. - In saying that, we will monitor the situation, and might move the Videos to a CDN on the weekend.) If that happens, we remove the 10min limit.

For members who already had an active donation status:

  • You will receive a bonus month on top of your paid donator status.
  • You are not limited to one video per 10min

This stage will last for 30 days. Unless we decide to extend it. :)

Match requests

We will not open match requests for the next 30 days. What happens after that is not clear yet. But the chances are high that it might start again shortly after.

Stay safe and stay healthy,
Admin

The work you do is really appreciated.

Very few people understand the work required to keep a site like this working and secure, let alone the additional work to add enhancements and keep the base technology/code current, ensuring MeetFighters stability, usable and secure well into the future.

When one considers this is not a commercial site with a dedicated team working full time on it, one begins to realise how awesome the volunteers are and how amazing this site truly it.

Thank you.

Hey guys,
Once again thanks for your dedication, focus and concern for always thinking about how to make MF the best site of any wrestling site out there. Cannot say enough on what awesome guys you are. Also thanks for keeping us aware of need to be cautious with the continuing pandemic. As much as we want to wrestle we should think about being responsible in making decisions.

Your site is amazing and I’m
Very thankful for it. It’s just a pity you only accept PayPal and not a regular credit card since I was banned from PayPal for no reason (except barely using it) and therefore cannot donate anymore... sorry about that.

You are not the first person who brought this to my attention.
And I'm working already on it to provide other - more modern payment methods.

Thanks for the efforts - but do you have option to keep previous layout to which some of us used to?

If you are referring to the forum layout - This is sadly not possible. The 10-Year old site code had to go. But that does not mean it will never change again. If you can bring up some clear points that you dislike/like on the current/old system I can think about it and maybe include it in some possible changes in the future.
But if you only say you want the old layout again, I have to say 'No.' –> Constructive feedback is always welcome.

Why do you have to change things again and again? Now I can't see my lists of groups in the left side list, I have to go looking for them one by one...
