Yeah, bummer.

Their comment counts, save for a few anomalies, never really got going. That's as good an outside measure of site health as any.

Still, enjoyed the hell out of it for the time it was there.

What next Whiney?

a daily stop for me, but i would comment weekly, if that. does this mean he'll spend more time on the board?

Weren't you also a moderator, there? You better hope Obner never blinkers, then fades, or you'll have to do real work. :)

While I don't have any schadenfreude about Whiney losing a gig, I never quite took to his site. Format and content were a little on the GAR side. And, like the man says, that opinion is worth exactly what you paid for it.

Maybe a resurgent Tuba and Serpent can fill the void.

I didn't like PTW at all. Aside from the fact that its stance would never resonate with me, it didn't offer anything unique.

I never understood what its business model was. Or rather where the money was supposed to come from.
