Ryan smith confirmed that the DT was a spinoff of anandtech news and their contract has expired. Interesting timing if you ask me.what happen to Dailytech links on Anandtech front page?
Interesting timing indeed.
Maybe I won't shut down my site today.

Well, that's a great question. I'm Senior Community Manager for Purch. I was hoping to have my title all situated ahead of time here on the forums, but I can't seem to get in touch with Ryan at the moment.
Can confirm my identity in other ways though, if one of the forum admins or mods wants to reach out. My email is jpishgar@purch.com.

Don't let panic become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Don't leave until there really is a valid reason to and the community will be fine. If everyone bails because they think everyone will bail, they'll be ruining the site for nothing.
Let's just hang on and see how it turns out. If they run it into the ground in a few months, then fine, leave.
Sooooo, that means you'll be shutting down Tom's Hardware then?

If it helps confirm his id at all, he does have the same avatar here as toms.
Will be curious to see how many new account registrations we get over the next week or so.
We won't be running anything into the ground. Purch acquired Anandtech because we believe in it as a site. Like I mention in the FAQ I posted, messing with the secret sauce for a site that works would be goofy/dumb. Nothing will change, except your editorial dudes will have more resources and access to stuff than previously.
and how many old timers flood into olds' basement?

Olds shut down his basement forum. Turns out leaving a forum unmoderated and fully open to bot posting promotes the import of hot and cold running porn. Porn of a quality that would make Olds uncomfortable.

Classic wizard. My tabletop D&D nerd is showing. Sidenote- my avatar and digital persona tend to make people thing I'm way, way older than I am. But yeah, happy to confirm however or by whatever means.
