Let me know if there is any help you need. I don’t know much about building sites, but I could throw a couple bucks into the pile if needed.

And does anyone have contact with Barkeep/Saluki69 that reads this board?


After the Peoria Journal Star boards stopped being supported, a bunch of Bradley fans moved to this: https://bradleybraves.boards.net/

It's easy to use and ads are minimal. I like the setup a lot. Believe it is hosted by ProBoards and is free. If you scroll to the bottom, there's a link to setup your own.

Thanks. Might just go with this, looks easy to navigate.

Still working on things but I have the board up now. If Saluki Insider is really dead, I might end up buying a web domain since they aren't very expensive.

Tell everyone you know that was on Saluki Insider that we're here now as long as Saluki Insider is down

You work quickly. Well done. I already like it better than Insider.

We had to throw ours together in a rush the night McCarty got suspended when the old one abruptly disappeared. The pinnacle of my IT knowledge was figuring out access numbers for AOL when I was traveling in a hotel. We went with ProBoards for a temporary fix and 5 years later, still with it. We found it easy for dummies like us and like the Bradley one, we found the ads to be minimal. I did register the domain purpleaceplace.com. Even with that, the costs annually are minimum. No complaints from our experience.

Good luck, I also like yours better than the old one. That was a difficult one to follow.

Saluki Insider is back up, although I appreciated all the work the people did to get Saluki Insider up I did think the new site was easier to navigate. Although I never had a problem with Saluki Insider a lot of posters did and they left, so the site lost a lot of inside information.

I honestly don't want to compete with someone that's paying for the website vs a free website I put $0 into. And having split Saluki boards seems like a waste, I had people tell me they were going back to Insider.
