Title: Does anyone know what happened
Post by: 60scat on January 04, 2011, 09:00:49 PM
to the site run by Terry Pierce?   Did this one take it's place?

Yes  O0

They've shut it down, it may be temporary or perminate we don't know yet. But tell all your friends about us.  The more active members we get the better it is around here. If yesterday's activity is any indication of site growth I don't know what is #LotsOfActivity.

60s,

I PM'd mjrod and they turned the site off for now due to little traffic and more spammers.  MJ and Terry are going to discuss the future of the site.  I'm not going to speculate what that means or implies.

As you are probably aware, goEMAW did (and does) have a lot of the traffic KSUFans did have.  I like to think that K-StateNation does provide what KSUFans was doing prior to the goEMAW exodus and without the 'tone' that goEMAW has.  Lynch and KSUftw can elaborate further. 

I (cyclist) think we can have rational sports discussion with respect given to those who post.  There will be differences of opinion and we may need to agree to disagree on certain opinions.  I think we can also have fun with non-sports items in '(P)Leasure Hall' and if you feel the need to be classless, we have 'Ya Want Classless ?'

While I know some or even many of you may not care about cycling and the Tour de France, I will be providing information and my thoughts just like I did on KSUFans.  And you know I will be provideing Classless Content as well.  If that is not your cup of tea, hopefully, the Football and Basketball boards are.

We most definitely would like to encourage participation in our site.  We are K-Staters (well most of us) and these forums will provide K-State and Big 12 sports discussions.  Hopefully you and others will like this site and 'hang your hat' here and help us make this a great site.

Take care,

cyclist

How do we get ESPN affiliated if that site is done?

Cyclist is a class act....one of the main reasons I came here.  I was wondering around aimlessly before he set me on the road to recovery and told me about this great site.

He saved my life   :Drink:

Felis,

Terry Pierce did that at KSUFans.  It was definitely his greatest accomplishment (after saving the site).

Well if anyone has knowledge of how to get ESPN Affiliation there may be some love headed your way.

I will talk to TP to see if he knows what it will take for our site to get the affiliation with ESPN, luckily even with all the tools and fools that were on ksufans.com I was still able to befriend TP and spend some time with him and since we trust each other I think he may be willing to help! Here is hoping this site just gets better and better! :popcorn:

Doubled the love from last post in the thread:
 :iheartu: :iheartu: :-* :-*

I looked around a bit on getting affiliated and it makes sense how KSUfans got hocked up.  It was the best KSU forums without the Scout/Rivals tag which is exactly what ESPN is looking for.  The article I read actually seemed like Scout laughed at ESPN for grabbing school forums and said bring it on.  ESPN is doing work and would be a HUGE upgrade on this site.  I am sure TP would have had problems during discussion if only a dozen peeps were active posters, so we need to keep spreading the word before much can happen I would assume.

Lynch, the first step to take in ESPN affiliation is to get rid of the thing where you scroll around the thread but the ads on the bottom stay there no matter what.  They hate the shit out of that.

Also, you need a favicon
Title: Re: Does anyone know what happened

also you need a mascot or something.  Like, remember the ksufans smoking wildcat guy that ECN made?  They like the shit out of that.

Hey we aren't trying to be GoEmaw. You guys have your retarded dog golf head mascot which is awkward but unique, let us be happy with our Cat Scratch Fever logo.

Clam down calm down.  If my math is right (i honestly haven't counted) this thread is turning more into legit suggestions then foodball related.  Might have to be moved shortly.

SteveDave how about this. I can offer 1 Hot Dog and a diet coke at the next tailgate, you'll know who I am I'll be the one slamming down my contraband Four Loko.

Just a warning this hotdog and diet coke was reserved for Weird Robert so you may need to get there early.

Lynch, are you talking about a 1/4 pound Hot Dog or a standard Walmart one?  This could weigh heavily on SD's decision.

Also, put a stipulation in the terms of service that if you talk bad about super elite steve dave you are IP banned and then ban the shit out of this loser. 
Steve, I didn't mention your name.  I wasn't talking about you.  You are awesome and very elite.  What could make you think I was talking about you?  You're way to elite to have your head up your anus.  I am sure that you are just in a rest room without the light on.

I was told by a reliable source through a PM that Pete was the head guy over there so, I beg your forgiveness if you are the head guy Steve.  You are without any reservations the most knowledgeable, polite poster I have ever seen, not to mention that you support your alma mater and coaches with such zeal that no one could ever doubt your support and fidelity to all that is KSU, including Bill Snyder, and Frank Martin.  Please accept my apologies Steve Dave the most awesome, elite poster on the other site.  EMAW
