Title: Could the former proprietor of Woopig.net link this board on his Exit Message?
Post by: Jean Lafitte on Mar 14, 2023, 06:31 PM
I'd like for people who log on to Woopig.net to be able to find this website - Woopig.org

Is there any chance that this could happen?

It was mentioned on there. Then erased. I don't think it will be reposted. There is another thread with more details.

Pretty sure he could either redirect to woopig.org for a few months or simply post something making if obvious to come here. That didn't happen and apparently won't happen. He wanted and fully expected it to die. Make of that what you will.

If the Woopig.net proprietor sees this:

Come on, Woopig.net proprietor! Don't be angry and spiteful. We loved your creation for over 20 years. You gave us a gift and we thank you.

You got sick of it! That's understandable. That is reasonable.

All we are asking is for you to edit your Farewell Message with one sentence advising folks to head on over to Woopig.org to continue to meet with Woopiggers.

Are you SURE you're still an LSU fan?  I mean, you don't really know til you know.

This is very reasonable.  Which is why it will never happen.

I think his feelings may be hurt that everyone didn't take their toys and go home like he did.

Going back to the old Woopig board for many years now, you're Corliss'd among Hog fans. Right there almost with Z, who is a Tennessee fan.

I remember when we Hog fans were in the desert you were there reminding us to keep our chins up. 

Welcome back brother.

I listened to Tommy Smith and Roger every day when I lived in LR. I vividly remember the radio parody of the song "Along Came Jones" about Matt Jones.

I really thought that Matt Jones would play for long time in the NFL.

I was able to find it here on Reddit after he mentioned it in his long form note.  There wasn't a link but you wouldn't need one.

He won't ever link this board at the old site...not after reading all the pissed off comments from Reddit, Twitter and here. And that's ok. We don't need that page. People will figure it out.

On reddit I linked it up top as "New Woopig" right beside where I linked to "Old Woopig" but nobody has ever ever ever seen it.

My take on Steve is similar to my thoughts on Petrino.  His positive contributions far outweighed the negatives of how it ended.  I appreciate what he did in building and maintaining the old Woopig for so long.  Hopefully time heals any wounds on either side of the issue.

This.  I'll always appreciate everything Steve did for us over the years, regardless of how it ended.  He can have something that was obviously weighing heavy on his mind gone and we have all moved onto a new platform that has most/all of the positives of the old board, with a fresh start and a software platform that is much easier to maintain.

It was good for everyone and no hard feelings at all
