McMenemy Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Hi Guys, I know this isn't necessarily the place for this, but I was on The Oratory, all fine, then a message went up saying The Oratory Forums have Closed, Spinner. Anyone know what's going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Just wondering that myself. Doesn't mention maintenance or anything, and it seems inopportune at best given the KOTO just started a few hours ago. I think its best just to check back in a few hours, see what the deal is. If it was anything major it'd be on the main page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 They're back up, just so you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Glad to know they're back up. I might not frequent the site / forums these days, but I'll always have a special place in my heart for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothian Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Glad to know they're back up. I might not frequent the site / forums these days, but I'll always have a special place in my heart for them. Ditto. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for The Oratory.

James D. Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 I still frequent the Oratory because it's the best sports discussion anywhere on the Web. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothian Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Misread the "frequent" line - I still do the oWa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 If you're a big fan of the Oratory I hope you'll vote for me in the KOTO tournament. Together we can restore her honour! (paid for by the tea party to elect stavros and keep the poor and ethnic down) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 I just started posting back over there. Mostly just the video game threads. As a former "OGF" winner, I don't have the fuzzy nostalgia in my heart that some might have of the place, but I like to think that I've been able to bury the hatchet with a lot of people in the past few years.

MaxPower Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I started there, but ended here. There was just far too much partisan discussion on most topics over there, especially from a few who thought they owned the moral and intellectual high ground. Plus I found myself spending most time in either OTT or Entertainment threads so figured Earth-2 was really my natural home If this place had a bigger sports community I would probably never leave, haha.

Molly Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 If not for there, I would have never ended up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I do love the 'tory, it was my route here as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Keith Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 I think most of the original earth-2 came from the Oratory. Don't really post there much anymore(although I'm hoping to do a bit more OWA posts in the future) but I frequent there all the time and still love reading some of the posts on there.
