Funny that the Seattle Times let DT promote the new site for a week or so and then decided to shut the link down. I think they had no idea the new site would be so successful.
I really doubt the Times cares at all about this site. It's not like the Forum was generating any income for them.
yep, it was Joan. Times probably has zero clue.

Well, for one thing they now have 82 fewer pairs of eyeballs potentially looking at the banner ads at the top and bottom of the forum page. Fewer views, less revenue. Not a big deal, but probably the only reason the ST hasn’t shut down the nuisancey (for them) forums.

Did Coeur make it over before they shut down the link? Has he changed his Alias? And where the hell is Bounty?
Yes, Jay is here. I will let him reveal himself he wants to. I will reach out to Gary Lemons and Kevin about the new site tonight. I think everyone else that I have contact info for is here.
How about the other Jay (the Canadian one) and UKMarinerFan and isn't there an Aussie or S. African that posted on ST as well? We don't want to be without the contingent of British empire residents.

Did you see my theory. They can't figure out how to shut them down. lol

I have not seen Jay Canadian post for years. UK has been very infrequent lately and Aussie Mike is now punting for the Hawks so he doesn't have time to post. Dr. Naysay is from S. Africa and is here.

Good grief, this team just does whatever it takes to lose. Meanwhile, the Yankees go out and find ways to win with a makeshift lineup.
During the rain delay, I told my 1st grader that we need to pray that the rain keeps falling. We were up 2-1 in the 7th - would've been a completed game. You just knew if they started back up again, they'd find a way to piss that game away.

If a number of us logged on to the ST site and pm'd our missing forum brethren, is the Times able to block or delete that?
Would they know we put http://marinertalk.com in a pm? I doubt it.
If, by some chance some of our missing friends logged on, happened to look up and see they had a pm, maybe they'd try.

LMAO I just had a vision of Joan putting in a request to Seattle Times IT Department to try to determine if there's a mariner talk Link in any and all PM's that have been sent recently. :lol:

Most of those guys left long before the spam started to hit. But hey knock yourself out. BTW leadoff basically left the forum to avoid paying a few hundred dollars to repair Auburn Terry's car after he smashed into it.
