After 8 years with DT (and 15 years with the AT family), I left late last month. I had an inside track (of course) to what was going on post Anand's move to Apple, but the uncertainty caused me to explore alternative options.
what happen to Dailytech links on Anandtech front page?
Ryan smith confirmed that the DT was a spinoff of anandtech news and their contract has expired. Interesting timing if you ask me.
thanks. 95% of the reason why I go to Anandtech.com is because of DT.
Oh well. All the more reason to hang out at Ars now.
Will be curious to see how many new account registrations we get over the next week or so.
anyone with experience with Tom's forums before and after the their purchase? read a couple of articles from that site but never visited forums
It's still a relatively new brand, as of 2014. Purch is what was TechMedia Network and Bestofmedia, which combined Power Rangers style into a megazord.ive never heard of purch
time to break out the lifeboats and survival blankets! Every man for himself!
Can we get better emoticons out of this? The Fusetalk ones were vastly superior to the current crop.
You guys are well in-hand with Perknose and esquared so I won't be stepping on any toes. I'm here to offer help and resources when asked for and when needed.
and the moderators of the forums will be even more brutally beaten and abused?
Oh...and don't ban me for at least a year.
Please send free ipads to everyone.
my salary is $1000/week
just wanna make sure you guys have that sorted
Hey, hey! It's only been like ten minutes! We aren't going to start re-arranging the furniture already. If better emoticons is a strong suggestion that has community support, we'll absolutely look into making that happen. Slowly, cautiously, and careful-like.
Well I'm glad you asked. I cannot do my job without a new 4k display. When getting this approved you may encounter someone who says I don't have a job or actually work for you. Don't listen to that underachiever. PM for shipping address. Thx!
If the new guy really wants to make this place better, he can unban all the people who were banned simply for offending the overlord's massive ego. There is a handy dandy list in my sig for reference.
There are plenty of us who have been around long enough to know that ATOT is ATOT. Put whoever in charge you like, ban all the good members you like, but ATOT will still be ATOT.

I noticed that early this morning and when I saw this headline I immediately assumed it was connected.

Forum themes, man. Forum themes.

I thought this place was owned by Apple?
Is it common for companies like Purch to say they aren't going to change anything, and then change a bunch of stuff anyway?
Which overlord? There will be no amnesty unless otherwise approved by the consensus of administrators/moderators, or, rather, whatever the means of leniency/clemency may exist at current. As mentioned in other spots, we're not exporting or copy/pasting over your current community policies.
Which one did it means nothing. The admin community acts as one.
Tom's? Aw, fuck.
