I find this frustrating. It is a site with so much potential. There are many excellent posters on a variety of topics (HS/college/elite/training/shoes/individual states), but stuff like this happening really doesn't help the website out at all.

You mean Lexus but you ain't know that.
There was an announcement about expected downtime this week so maybe the message is accurate? I doubt it would shut down.

Shut down? Shut down by whom? Do you ever read the internet? All it is is a bunch of unsupported attacks and accusations.

I hope TrackTalk will be back as I find it refreshing spot to visit.
It's a dump.
The original Dyestat community broke up and Tracktalk is just the very sad small little remnants of that once thriving message board. The only thing more pathetic than the current TT board is the current Dyestat board. A real shame what happened with ESPN getting involved and ruining it.
It's back today.
New format's kinda confusing.
I just wish more people would post on those boards.
This new format is awful imo. The old one was way better then this.
They're getting beaten down by milesplit since the acquisition of Milesplit by Flotrack.
There isn't much forum talk these days. HS kids like to watch videos and be tweeted at. You're not going to see long drawn out discussions anymore.
Do tell? I never saw that.
tracktalk.net is back up on a new platform. The new format will take awhile to get used to but I believe it's supposed to be way better for the pocketphone crowd.
I'll see you over there.

zen should have posted the maintenance warning in a number of places not just the Wisco board but things happen and it's up again.

There's about two dozen people posting on there and most of that is related to Playground and Legends areas. Virtually all of the personalities from the old Dyestat have moved on.
I'll pass.

my assumption that there was no public notice was wrong- just because I visit tracktalk a lot and read a number of the boards each time I'm there the fact that I did not notice the public notices should not prompt me to say there were no public notices. I have apologized to zen by PM on his board and add that apology here.
please note I only have two comments on this thread one as wineturtle and one a reply to young Mr Farley as WiT- being too lazy to sign in- and am in no way responsible for any other remarks.
I pride myself as being tracktalk.net and zens biggest fan and hope he forgives me for not being alert enough to notice the notices.

For transparency zen and I spoke behind the boards awhile ago and he outlined some of his plans. He asked me not to comment on the expected changes so he could have an unveiling so to speak.
The Drugged to the Gills thread is worth the price of admission by itself.
It seems you can't even view the message board now unless you log in. Stupid. And the new format is awful.
Agreed. New format is completely hideous. I lost my entire profile under this new style. Really blows.
I actually got declined when I tried to sign up for this site a few years back. I haven't been back since.
I never bothered to get a user name there since it became a ".net" site, but it's a very nice place to look for local highschool info. Glad it's back!
Crapola site and no signs of life on the boards.
