FanShot
almost 2 years ago >by gahnki
Some of you may remember the conversation on DBN about the lack of an Ohio State blog on the SportsBlog Nation platform. Well, that's about to change. Along with the person who runs Buckeye Football Analysis and some help from another friend, I will be running the new SBN Ohio State blog. This means the retirement of gahnki, and a migration of time from DBN to the new blog. Things have been quite hectic already, with the planning and becoming acquainted with the platform architecture. We'll be launching within the next few days, so this is farewell for now.
Even if you're not an Ohio State fan, stop by on the first few days and say hello. Since we're a new blog, starting up from the ground floor without a reader-base, we're going to need all the readers we can get.
NOOOOOOOOO! =O

Congrats!!! I am very excited and hope that your Buckeyes blog succeeds where the last 3 (4?) SBN attempts have failed.
Also, I’ll be a regular!
Ryan Kelsey - August 22, 2010
Expect me there. A lot.
Simmsinns - August 22, 2010
Congrats!

What’s it going to be called? Site of the ’Shoe?
SpecialBrownie - August 22, 2010
Friends of Arthur Schlichter

“That commentator went to our school, so ha”?
SpecialBrownie - August 22, 2010
DAMN REPLY FAIL.
SpecialBrownie - August 22, 2010
Congrats! I am glad to hear that, should be a great stop for all Buckeye fans.
Bernie19Kosar - August 22, 2010
Awesome! Very excited to hear about this, and I’ll be visiting often. I’m sure you’ll do a great job and finally give SBN the fantastic Buckeyes coverage we’ve all wanted.
Buckeye Brad - August 22, 2010
Also, I beg you, please continue the policy of no subject lines that we’ve established here and at LGT. It’s so much easier to read the discussions this way.
Buckeye Brad - August 22, 2010
I agree
Chris Pokorny - August 22, 2010
for all we know this could have just been in bold.
notthatnoise - August 23, 2010
You can tell by moving your cursor on it. If it’s in the subject line then you can click on it and it will collapse the comment.
Buckeye Brad - August 23, 2010
Woah! Never knew that.
Why would you need to have this ability anyways?
SpecialBrownie - August 23, 2010
I really don’t know.
Buckeye Brad - August 23, 2010
Usually for images. It’s nice to be able to collapse a large image for browser speed.
Roger Dorn - August 23, 2010
Another “Did you know” is that if you want to hyperlink to a direct comment anchor, the link is associated with the date on your comment.
Chris Pokorny - August 23, 2010
This is nice to know. I used to click on the profile page of the user who left the comment, and got the link that way. This is much easier.
Simmsinns - August 23, 2010
On blogs that use the subject line, you can view the entire thread with every comment collapsed and uncollapse only those you care to read.
golanbatrac - August 23, 2010
so if I ever commented with a subject line, you could hide it?
bross09 - August 23, 2010
I think it keeps the subject line but hides the text box
Villeslgr - August 23, 2010
Yes. And it only happens on your screen, not for everyone.
Buckeye Brad - August 23, 2010
yeah. I didn’t mean to add the question mark. It was supposed to be a joke on myself.
bross09 - August 23, 2010
Nice! I look forward to reading it.
emily522 - August 22, 2010
Sorry to see you retiring, Gahnki. But simultaneously extremely excited about this new Buckeye blog. Always been a fan of BFA and I am sure you guys will do a great job. I’ll be sure to get over there when you guys launch.

Our loss is their gain. Best of luck with the new endeavor!
RelapsingDawgCatcher - August 23, 2010
When life closes a window, they open the whole house. It’ll be sad to see ya go, but if its to sacrifice to get a great SBN blog going for OSU, it’ll be worth it.
bross09 - August 23, 2010
Best of luck with the site gahnki, can’t wait to see it kick off! You’re always welcome to stop by on gameday too to chime in some comments on DBN still.
Chris Pokorny - August 23, 2010
Thanks for all the kind wishes, folks. We hope to see you there. In fact, we go live tomorrow, so check out Along the Olentangy when you go online on the morrow.
gahnki - August 24, 2010
Booked marked and joined.
Looks great!
Simmsinns - August 24, 2010
Do you have a different username there?
Buckeye Brad - August 24, 2010
Tyler, I betcha.
SpecialBrownie - August 25, 2010
Tyler T.
gahnki - August 25, 2010
Does this mean you will grace us with your new name here occasionally?
rufio - August 26, 2010
You could have asked SBN to change your gahnki username to Tyler T if you wanted (they did that for Ryan Kelsey and myself since we are front page writers). You may have known that already and decided to keep them separate, just thought I’d mention in case…
Chris Pokorny - August 25, 2010
I did not, but it isn’t of large importance.
gahnki - August 25, 2010
Plus, you can add formerly known as gahnki to your sig if you like.
talonk - August 26, 2010
Or like what license’s plates say… “my other username is a gahnki”
