Server Renewal - 2022

[GuinnessHog]

Just to be clear, the actual ownership of woopig will be going to a woopigger who isn't me, and doesn't want to be named.  I'll maintain the woopig software as it's always been, but there will be no substantial changes unless you folks ask for it.

Congratulations and thanks to SteveJ for creating the best and most relevant Razorback-related message board of all time.

Tell Boondoggle congrats on his new purchase

As of March 2023, only negative opinions about Razorback sports will be allowed.

it's not RickB?

RickB applied, but he didn't meet the basic requirements of Adobe "Certified Professional" or the functional equivalent, a high school diploma.

Also, the new guy had to beat SteveJ in either hand-to-hand combat or online Rocket League.  It got ugly.

That's the real reason I had rotator cuff surgery two weeks ago.

The only reason I renewed my dues was TOPIWTF thread, lose that and I'm out.

[SteveJ]

Goal met. No need for anybody else to send anything. I removed the payment links.

Net $74.78?!?!?!

I knew it!  You have always been in this just for the money!

[SteveJ]

My hourly rate is very, very low. You get a lot for that amount.

Steve, than you again for everything you have done and continue to do for this place and all of us.

Seconded.  I appreciate your commitment to free speech, even when you don't agree with what's being said. 

[lawtiger]

Well, shit.  I just logged on to find out I'm too late.

Y'all got a backup cause for overflow funds?  Something razorback-related?  Hockey team need donations?

[Son_of_Spam]

Steve, than you again for everything you have done and continue to do for this place and all of us.

Same here. I hope you post every now and then to let us know how you are doing.

[HOGGLY WOGGLY]

I missed it, I had some Dogecoin I was gonna send. 

[gambler]

Same here. I hope you post every now and then to let us know how you are doing.

Been here as a lurker since 2004, and a poster since around 06. Coming up on two decades.

Can't imagine a better place to wildly overreact to a loss or delightfully revel in a victory.

Thank you very much Steve and Dawn, for giving us rubes this platform for documenting Hog history, and the other shenanigans along the way.  Lessor men have sold out similar platforms (looking at you Lanny), but you didn't.

"Where have you gone Walter Cronkite, and why are you being replaced by the likes of Woopig.net?"

To the new owner, GFY.

That's the real reason I had rotator cuff surgery two weeks ago.

Hope the recovery goes well. I had the surgery last year and got lucky. When they got in there they found out the rotator cuff was fine, I had some bursitis and cartilage that had to be cleaned out. Good luck, we’re all counting on you.

[HogNrock]

I missed it this round as well.  I've spent way too much time here since 2002 and it has provided great entertainment, sports discussion, recipes, vacation spots and a great distraction from work.  Appreciate all you have done and keeping to your principles of no censorship and basically only 2 rules for posting.  Basically letting the board moderate it self unless absolutely needed.

Thank you, E and I hope even though you won't be handling it you will be sticking around to post from time to time.

The KARK board and then the Pigpen arrived in like 1997, right?  So all of these hog message boards have been around for 25 years.  I first posted on KARK board in 1997.  Damn.

I went from Bryan Fritchie's listservs. Hawgtalk and Hawgball, to the Pigpen in 1997 after I moved to Orlando. Somebody put a link to it in an email, and knowing Fritchie, that pissed him off bad. I know I signed off that listserv as soon as I saw what was happening on the Pigpen.

I wanted to keep this until we hit the twenty-year mark....and we have.

I'll probably be around about as much as I have been for the last seven years, without the annual chunk of work I do around renewal time because I'm semi-interested for a few weeks. That always goes away.
