Question for fellow Sizzle on the Grill forum members

[smokeasaurus]

I am pretty much a one forum kinda guy. Mostly due to time and was wondering if my fellow SOTG brothers and sisters will be hanging here more than on SOTG because I am gonna have to drop one and I sure don't want to lose any of you!!

[muebe]

I am on many different forums and will continue to be on this one also...

[TMB]

I'm on three sites on and off so you will find me without to much trouble.

Some how or another I have myself involved with 8 different forums all pertaining to BBQ and Smoking. With the new hours I have been working I have been reduced to doing more reading than posting but I am usually around. As for the SOTG forum since they did the upgrade it is crashed and not operational more than it is up and running. In light of that fact I haven't been going there as much.

Being retired I have the luxury to apply as much time as I want or need to be active in a few forums.  Presently I split some of my time with the Bradley Smoker, SOTG, Pelletheads, and now LTBBQ.  Like others have said you can easily find me.

I'm here and SOTG.  Dee

[IR2dum]

I'm going to be wherever Pammie, Dee, TMB, CB, T², Old Dave, muebe, smokeasaurus, TwoPockets, tenpoint5, Jaxon, Bobo, Ron D, smoker pete, and Terry way down in Alabama are. OK, wherever all my friends are. But mostly Dee.

I hope we all will continue to keep in touch with the other forums out there. Lots of good info - and you can't have it all in one place.
What I stay focused on is whether we at LTBBQ can do more to build a more positive user experience. I can tell you that Rick and I and a couple of big names are working on some new features that will add content, and give us an attractive front page with a collection of blogs attached to the site

Of course - you can always lean on folks that you like on other forums to come over here and bring their talents and recipes ......HINT- HINT ...

All I can say is thank goodness for this forum 'cause the SOTG keeps going down!

I know what you mean Tommy.  Just tried a minute ago and still can't access SOTG.  Been that way most of the day and off and on for quite a while!!

It's Saturday morning and SOTG is down again. At least it's reliable in here. Let's get some more bodies in here.  I like it here with the CHAT. It's almost as good a talking in person. Does anyoneknow who we contact to let them know it's down? I have talked to Mike a few times about it.  Pam ★*˚°。°

They know it's having problems.   Problem is they don't seem to be in a hurry to repair the problem   

I hope one day they will see what the deal is and fix it, I like that forum and the folks on it.

Pam - recruiting new posting members is key to build this site to it's potential. It is the one ingredient that will position us to create even more previously unheard of features and benefits for members BTW - we do have a very high ratio of posts per member. That is great, it just means that most of the folks that come here will actually participate.

So I again ( my apologies for beating this drum so much - but it *IS* important ) I ask all of you to make a concerted effort to invite folks to LTBBQ.

It is commendable that the comments about our friends at SOTG are not negative, and please let us maintain that position. I do not know what problems they may be having at this time. But here is what we do know: When Char-Broil went to a different company or group sometime back to maintain the SOTG site - we began to see a degradation in the site; "up-time". That is not much, and they are not talking about it to the members. Not much more to say than that, as again - I want to focus on the positives.

LTBBQ is owned and run by the admins. Period. But we are a much smaller forum too....... so as we grow the challenge of site reliability is always present.

In no way do we want to alienate anyone from other sites by allowing LTBBQ to be seen as "anti-" anyone else. Hey - it's an imperfect world full of imperfect machines and people.  We hope that SOTG gets their problems solved as most of us use more than one forum. Nothing to hide there.

If it wasn't for the sotg forum, I wouldn't be here!!
