Welcome, I'm sure you'll find ppl here don't like CDD to, and actually know very little about what they speak of.

Jk volnation

It's a very good site and I've enjoyed my short time here, and I'm sure you will to.

Was a daily reader of GVX until they paired up with 24/7 and took away the recruiting news. Now they want a 'script' to continue reading the rest. So hello VN. Shoulda been here years ago. I will miss the regulars that commented there but suppose times change and you make new friends...

Glad to be here. Gotta change my moniker and get a pic though. I was A1A along time ago and just now realize it looks too close to Ala.

If you want to change your username, hit the "contact us" link at the bottom of the page. Freak is the only one who has that power.

Welcome to VN!

I haven't been here for a really long time, since last Dec. I think, but it is the best place on the web for all things Vols!

Some members here do have access to 'pay-per-view' material and are kind enough to share with the rest of us.

On top of having all the news - from all the different sources - funneled into one location, the atmosphere is better than any single sports-site I've seen.

Also, you may know this, or maybe it hasn't crossed your mind, but most of the people you would see commenting on the GVX articles are also members here.

I think most of them have different screen names, but I've seen a few I recognize.

I think we'll be seeing even more we recognize now that KNS has brought the AXE down on themselves... especially considering how they did it, no notice and only days before the season begins! Treating your readers like that is just terrible and reminds me of 'Vlad the Impaler'!

Again, Welcome to VN!!!

Go Vols!!!

CTFP now charges to read online content.

I have found you can get around it if you click stop before the article/page fully loads! :good!:

The quickest way to stop these papers from charging is if no one pays for a subscription. It would only last a week and it would be back free again because of lost ad revenue.

Watching Old Media die NEVER gets old. I'm sorry, but watching socialists in a death spiral is a beautiful thing to me. :)

The writing was really pretty bad. And, after Strange put up that John Adams Brown Nose Article a few months back, I was one the verge of leaving that site on purpose anyway.

This is all the reason I need. Thanks KNS. Will be watching the smoke from afar.

This should be a nice boon for VolNation. The best Vols forums I've found.

So the Gnus Sentinel joins the "rag ranks" of the Nashville Tennessean. No surprise & no loss.

Freak,

Please place this young man under my tutelage. I will teach him everything I know and mentor this kid to the top.

Oh well, I live govolsxtra and the related links but I'm not paying for UT football info even though I am a huge fan.

News Sentinel just put themselves out of business. They're advertisers are going to pull out on the web side due to lack of traffic because everyone is going to avoid them like the plague. If I wanted to subscribe for Vols coverage, I'd subscribe to Volquest so that I have complete coverage.

at least it doesn't charge me. maybe because I live in Chattanooga ? Or maybe because I subscribe to the paper ? but i don't remember ever registering on the website.

From their editorial describing the paywall;

"The Times Free Press will allow online readers access to a limited number of stories per month. Those who subscribe to the newspaper and register online will have free access to the Web material on any day they receive the print edition."
