And Larrytitan can be reached on this forum, unlike the other. How are you, Hoopster?

It's taking forever to load this afternoon - if it even loads at all. Aggravating!

I don't know why they have so many issues on the other board. Here I just use a basic off the shelf technology, and have never had any problems. Of course, this board doesn't get the same level of traffic, and maybe that makes a difference. I also police it pretty hard for hackers--we have had some of the porno attacks that have plagued the other site but usually have been able to block them quickly and keep the board cleaned up.
I started this board when the other was under near constant attack by the porno men. I think it served its purpose. I've kept it going since then just because a) it's handy for me to do some of the things I do as much for myself as anyone else (like in the Titan History section and recruiting lists), and b) I like having a backup for the other board. I've never tried to displace DetroitTitanHoops.com as the place to talk Titans--in fact, some might notice the top post, permanently glued at the top of the home page, is on how people can get to DetroitTitanHoops.com forum page. I post there a ton. But I also like to post here just so that it doesn't become a dead forum, and I appreciate Sam's postings and those of others who post here less often. Sometimes I wish more would post here simply because we don't seem to have the outages that are pretty regular at the other board, but I'm content.
I've been thinking about starting up a blog that will link to this site. We'll have to see if I get ambitious over the summer.

Just when we have a great topic to discuss, the board takes yet another dump. SMH.

Yeah, I like to post here because we cover some non-Titan basketball stuff, and I like the board to be more or less current in case the old board goes down for an extended period. It's definitely a good thing to have. I know we have some lurkers (in addition to The Lurker), and I have encouraged others to post here form time to time, in addition to posting on the old board. Looking forward to the blog, if/when you decide to move forward with it.

Anybody else finding the other board (www.detroittitanhoops.com) problematic these days? It seems to be incredibly slow to load, often timing out. No obvious reason. It's not my wifi or internet connection, since other sites load fine. I've found this for 3 or 4 days now.

Yes, I've had the same problem, although in the past hour or so I've been able to access it a bit quicker. Maybe the owners of the Macaroni Grill have hacked the site in response to all the so very, very funny jokes that seem to be appearing about them in just about every thread

I've had on and on problems the past couple of days, mostly with it loading very slowly. It's working just fine now, however. It was slow this morning.

Appears down this morning. One reason I keep this Board alive. And that's one reason I keep posting on here regularly. Thanks for creating and maintaining this board, Commish. You never know when it might become the primary board for an extended period of time. Plus, I really like to be able to post about other teams and college basketball topics without undermining the intent of the original board's creators. I'm married to the U of D Titans, but I do like having a place to talk about my long time mistress DePaul and my new girl on the side Texas Tech. You philanderer! 3 ladies are a lot to juggle. Not saying you can't, but you're no spring chicken.

Anyone else getting an "Account Suspended" screen at detroittitanshoops.com? I got that, too. But it happens to me so often that I figured they had a good reason for giving me a timeout. Glad to see that, this time at least, it wasn't something I did.

It's Trump's fault or Obama's fault. Can't decide yet.

I periodically hack into things there and shut that board down, just so that Moose will come over here and make some posts.
