Not sure what this means for this board
Cats Illustrated merging with KSR
- Thread starter The Ganner
- Start date
I know KSR as their own board. I hope this board stays put again.
I may be done completely if they change this board again.
“Is Merging Into” … so will “Cats Illustrated” exist after the merge?
Here’s an excerpt from the article:
“Most everything you enjoy about KSR and Cats Illustrated will not change. Both domain addresses will still be accessible. There will be the free site, KentuckySportsRadio.com, managed by Tyler Thompson, which recently celebrated its 20th anniversary and is the most trafficked team college sports website in America. If you are a KSR+ subscriber, you will now have access to two message boards: KSBoard, which will include all of the KSR writers and their information, and House of Blue, which will be managed exclusively by Justin Rowland and contain his writings and inside information. Two different message boards with two different styles, each of which will be part of the same subscription…”
Clarification on the future of Rupp Rafters may be found here on another RR Thread. “…There will be some free forums that are closed but this free board will remain. It will still be called Rupp Rafters….”

When asked if RR is going away, Justin said "No, there will still be a free forum and I believe that is the same. Migration this afternoon. GYERO will remain as well".
I hope the migration is seamless.
I think it will be fine. By what Justin is telling us moderators, things won't change much at all for HOB and RR. Same moderation etc.
So it's the end of the free board? If they are only keeping the HOB.
From Tyler Thompson
it will be KSBoard, House of Blue, and the free board, all under the KSR+ forum list. I assume the free board she referenced is RR.

By what I'm gathering, not much will change for RR. But I'm still gathering.
Does this mean you can’t speak a negative word about how Shannon the dude brings nothing to the table, and Matt spends 10 mins talking about his awesome life while we just patiently wait for UK recruiting or coaching news?
Sorry didn't read above. I honestly thought this already happened when ON3 took over.
Can confirm this board will remain...
Yes, you're banned now.
Justin did say no attacks on the KSR staff. I hope things just stay as is with us and all will be good.
There will be one free board, but it will not be basketball specific. Really dumb move in my eyes.
So no more Wildcat lair... damn
Most Kentucky Wildcats boards are already on life support as it is. Between mergers, people losing interest in Kentucky sports, people moving to the likes of Facebook, Twitter and Reddit along with people getting older or worse potentially even dying, there isn’t much room for traditional sports forums anymore. It’s sad. Even this board used to be much busier a decade ago and even more a decade before that.
Especially since a lot of basketball and football fans don’t get along, for some reason.
Y'all should be grateful Matt is giving you the one free board to post on and allowing us to have the gyero thread (which he posts on) to keep going. Everyone at once say thank you.

All the Facebook groups are horrible imo. Combinations of trolls and people who don’t know or care too much about basketball at least in any technical sense. Not within miles of this forum.
It’s a thread on The Paddock, the general discussion board.
Yes this is true... I'd wager we likely have 10 more years of participation on the forums.
Building this online persona has been my life’s work. If they take that away from me, there will be hell to pay!
You think I’ve made some Matty Bangs jokes in the past-well, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!

Matt Jones posts in it, so that will be kept. Can't be mad, to the victor goes the spoils, that's capitalism. I'll miss the Lair though. Won't be long it'll all be behind a paywall anyways in my opinion.
Oxygen will require a subscription at some point. Hopefully they bundle it with sunlight.
It’s looking like I will have to fire my Wildcat nation account back up.
If they are truly merging KSR and Cats Illustrated then I suggest this anagram for the name:
AD Crustal Skittlers
AD Crustal Skittlers
If true, my bathroom breaks at work will be a lot shorter.
I thought it was one of those Greek sandwiches that looks like a taco.
MJ is such a tool. I can't even listen to him for like 10 seconds without wanting to rip my hair out.
Fire somebody, I don't know who. But fire somebody.
Why would you want basketball and football merged together? That's so chaotic with a really easy solution.
