PrintContrary to popular belief, the authors of this site don't sit around in our mother's basements combing the internet for information on WVU and college sports en masse. We have lives. They're not good lives, mind you, but lives they are nonetheless. That's where you guys come in.
Without you, the loyal reader, this site isn't anything. First off, if I noticed no one was visiting the site, I would probably stop writing. But beyond that, your comments and contributions make this a vibrant community. By submitting tips to your authors (charleywest@gmail.com) or submitting Fan Posts and Fan Shots, you can greatly increase the experience at The Smoking Musket. This will inspire better stories, increased community activity, and overall, just a better damn website.
So, please, I beg you, help us out. By doing so, you'll only make the site better for you and your fellow Mountaineer fans. And also, if you don't, the terrorists win and 5th Year Senior will start killing puppies. And you don't want that on your conscience, do you?

Help me understand what fanshots and fanposts are and the difference between the two. I’ve been spreading the word about this website. One thing that hurt you guys is that sometimes you all just go on dry spells and don’t put anything out.
I’ll be a lot more active now that i finally figured out what the hell my username is. Not only is it case sensitive, it accepts spaces too. Go figure.
One tip: More consistent hump day postings with pics.
OK, here's the difference
Fan Shots are shorter, more for just posting a link, quote, or video.
Fan Posts are a full-on blog post. Something that you take your time with.
As for our dry spells, it has happened before. We have tried to bring on new, good posters to help with trying to avoid that. Eventually, we’ll get to the point where you’ll get tired of how many times a day we’re posting.
