Hello?

Anyone know what's happening here at Welcome to Loud City?
There hasn't been a new post on the front page since the 16th, and it seems Mr. P's no longer listed at the bottom with the other writers.
I'd hate to lose this blog as a place for Thunder news. If it is in fact dying, can anyone recommend another place to read about the Thunder and converse with other OKC fans?
This post does not reflect the views of the staff of Welcome to Loud City or SB Nation. However, it was made by one of the members of the Welcome to Loud City community, so there is a large chance the above post is extremely ballin'!

Maybe it’s just been my internet, but lately the site has been loading very slow, sometimes not even at all.

I haven't
had a problem with it loading, just with a lack of content.

Perhaps someone gave up?
Too bad. I like this interface better than ever other Thunder blog, but the content isn’t there.

I'm with you there
I think there’s a few regulars amongst us who’d be more than willing to keep this going, except for the whole irregularity of mainpage content. Really, it’s not that hard given the interface — just queue up a bunch of gamethreads and let it do it’s thing come the day of. Between a few writers, this should be easy … so like you, I have no clue what is going on here …

I think Royce has got a good place with the Daily Thunder on the True Hoop network
If that’s what you’re lookiing for Electric Pencils, than I suppose head there. Other than that, I haven’t seen much of much substance.

Potentially, nothing is set in stone, just trying to get a feel for the situation, heh.

I think Zorgon would be a great addition.
I’m also interested in keeping this site afloat, but I refuse to the only person day in and day out to contribute.

I was writing
here at WTLC before the last hiatus, but I told Mr. P I wasn’t going to keep doing it because being in Florida, I didn’t feel I could contribute as much seeing as how I won’t be able to watch the games.

Thanks those who're already responding
Glad to see the enthusiasm for the site. No ill-will intended towards the departed Mr. P, he just felt he couldn’t do the workload anymore (twice).

Mr. P? It's time to step down :(
This site was great before you left us hanging. Daily Thunder is kickin WTLC’s arse. We gotta keep up with their “Daily” updates and stories. These weekly/monthly posts wont cut it. Thanks for the good times, I hope you will continue your occasional posts as an author, not site manager.
I really hope someone can step up and do this site the right way. Where’s the Loud LInks?

I thought I'd keep you guys updated
Matt has offered me and Ben the job, and right now some things are being worked out. I should have a solution to all of this within the day, so stay tuned to this thread (and WTLC) for updates. If I do get this blog, I assure you, I’ll do everything possible to run this site to the best of my ability.

He's my Co-Blogger at Blue Blitz
He mainly writes opinion and feature pieces. I’m the meat and bones guy who does previews, recaps, awards, and news, whereas he’s the guy who kind of does a column type thing. Don’t worry, he’s probably a better writer than I am.

I think I'm a closet Warriors fan.
At least I keep drafting multiple Thunder players in my fantasy leagues. Namely Azubuike, Anthony Randolph, Ronny Turiaf, and Andris Biedrins.

Yeah, thanks to fantasy, I think I might be a Hawks fan.

cool
Who is Matt? Is Zorgon a Warriors or Thunder fan?
by mojo918 on Oct 23, 2009 5:17 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Zorgon does a Thunder Blog called...
the Blue Blitz. He was a Warriors fan before OKC had it own team, so he is a fan of both. That is understandable.

Matt is the Bulls Blogger Posting Here
He runs the SB Nation basketball blogs.
I have a lot of comments on Golden State of Mind because I started commenting over there in 2006, long before the Thunder, during the hornets first season in OKC. I was a Warriors fan before that, and have been a combo Warriors/Hornets fan and subsequently a combo Warriors/Thunder fan for these past few seasons. I cheer for the Warriors when they come to town because, well, I only get to see them twice a year, and I can’t turn my back on my old team. Still, you can hear me cheering quite loudly for the Thunder every other home game.

I'm glad
to know someone will keep this place going. It’s like a slice of Okie home down here in the Magic Kingdom.
Now if we could start a post to trash talk for our fantasy league, I’d be set.

Yes Sir!
I’m already calling out Double Dribble that my team will out block his aging veterans.

Most of the league came from here, but 3 of them are my friends (DD being one) and we all do football together. We like to trash talk.
