We have lost a great deal of traction in this market. The loss of Coach Pants was almost insurmountable, and now coupled with the frequent, consistent and glaringly steady stream of departing DT regulars - our situation has surpassed alarming, and is now boarding on critical. Del Mar Fruit Club critical.

Occasionally, decisions are made that on the surface, appear to be salient in logic, forthright, and intelligently thought out. One such decision, I humbly may suggest, was the darting of an ENTIRE ROOM. Drastic, yes. But on the surface, a very effective method of staving off interactions between DT members that may have been taken out of context to presume nasty, personal attacks on one another.

One unintended consequence of vaporizing the entire room is that the action also opened the exit doors to a great number of frequent posters, some with ties to the horsey world, some not, but contributors nonetheless.

The unfortunate upshot of all of this is that the forum has become veritable wasteland, it's namesake in full stride, just 7 weeks removed from the Derby. It should not be this way. We need to reinstate the politico room, and invite our long lost regulars back with open arms.
We also need to reach out to some of the other forums and invite them back to the newly rejuvenated DT.
Unless he's actually been darted, this post is my attempt to help you get Coach back on the board. He's a more valuable member than I am, at least from a volume and LOL standpoint.

I just figure that post number 4,871 for me isn't likely, statistically speaking, to be the first one in history that I'm able to make without him quoting it and basically calling me a dumb ****, regardless of the topic, tone, or content of my post.

The above Coach bait is all I have to offer right now.
