Obviously Twitter changed the horsey talk landscape tremendously, but I know a number of people have trouble accessing the site because the certificate is way out of date and they get a warning trying to get on. My webdev guy left the business several years ago and I have no way to update a lot of the back end infrastructure. That's why I've warned that an end-of-life crash will come at some point and I won't be able to recover the site.
The ATR.com managers couldn't integrate DT into there, so I expect to add a message board to it when we're done here. Even though there isn't the chatting that went on for a long time, I use DT to record the show lineups, note topics I cover on the air and format my analysis and am happy that long time DTers still enjoy visiting.

Still around. I always thought it was a few posters that would end up running most people away. Nobody wants to hear that they are a moron or stupid for all of their racing takes. I think it's great to get on and analyze races, before and after but it doesn't seem like many people want to do that anymore.

I started posting on the ESPN Philadelphia Eagles and Phillies boards probably early 2000s then switched over to a now-defunct message board called sports-boards. Steve posted on the Eagles board but must have mentioned derbytrail and I ended up over here.

  As for having trouble accessing the website, I did get warning messages for a while, but I started accessing DT through ATR and I wouldn't get the warning messages and now I don't get them at all no matter how I try to access. I hope that DT doesn't implode at some point.

Anything worth doing is difficult. When I was young, and still thought I knew everything, I constantly annoyed serious and experienced players, and they were hardly kind in concealing their annoyance. I'm grateful for their abuse, because I didn't go home, cry, and walk away from the game. I studied more, worked harder, and improved my opinion. Years later, I was no longer the least knowledgeable person in the conversation, and years after that I because a part of the conversation. Nobody ever really got anywhere worth getting by passive aggressively pointing fingers at others.

I remember those contests. I finished “in the money” for one of them. I think I won an Eagles blanket? It was a long time ago, I can’t remember.

Mostly a lurker here but I did just want to let Steve know that his hard work on the forum, specifically with the Weekend Beyer stuff, probables etc does not go unappreciated. Thank you!
