Ask Grandstander

Grandstander · 04-25-2007, 12:23 PM

Traffic on the Scout boards, at least on their virtual tailgate board, was never great and now is next to nothing.

I never had a side in any of the board wars which generated the split, I had simply sustained this thread over there through default lethargy. So, no offense to the Scout folks, but I'm moving my hot dog stand to where there are more customers.

I suspect everyone knows how this works, so without further introduction..

Anyone have a question?

Am I allowed to be the first person to ask a question?

Did the check clearing have anything to do with influencing your decision?

You will be notified after your application is processed. I am informed that my staff has been unable to find your application fee with your entry, so this will probably cause a delay.

Of course not, I do not concern myself with the monetary aspects of the business, I concentrate entirely on the answers.

They dwell on the Scout Baseball BBQ board, but that also appears to be on life support.

With your CEO experience, why didn't Scout accept your offer to step in and right the ship?

This board seems superior technically. The Scout folks never did manage to get their board operating in such a manner so that I could use it with my Mozilla browser. Plus it seemed an awfully slow loader

All other concerns aside, I'm here now because there is more traffic and that's my only real reason. I do not have a motive to be trashing the Scout folks, they never gave me any grief about anything.

They balked at my demand for changing the name to "THE GRANDSTANDER & friends board.

I use the bottom method, but there is no right or wrong....it's wiper's choice.
