              Nah. The undisputed #1 ESPN True Hoops Fan Network affiliate website. The Source for this forum.

                Yeah I think the question was just whether the site had a forum immediately upon launch or it was a later addition. From my fuzzy recollection of events (I followed over to reading RR from Arsenalist's original site right at the start) I don't think the forum launched with the site, I think it came later. But as I said above, I could well be wrong.

                  Wow.. time flies.

                  Didn't realize the site came a year before I joined. And I only came in by by accident. Was looking for Raptor sh!t online.. I was actually reading a lot of Doug Smith's stuff and couldn't stand it anymore so was looking elsewhere. Stumbled on a blog written by Eric Smith and he posted a link to an interview he had with RR. That's when I got hooked.

                  Keep up the good work!

                    Reading Doug's blog/articles is also what drove me deep into the bloggersphere to find real Raptors content.

                      Same here! I started off in the comments section of Dougs Blog, and then found out there's a better way to talk ball ... and whats funny, is I now work with Doug's wife. Haha

                        I don't even remember how I found my way here, all I know is that I've never left.

                          Congratulations to all. Clearly it has been the source for much information, opinion, joy and angst...eyeballs and participation as well as quality of the main page articles attest to the increased popularity.

                          Thanks to the many who manage this.

                            I came here during the 2013 draft..... as things were looking up for the Raptors & them we traded for Rudy Gay & that pissed me off.

                              The forum started when I left RaptorsForum and join the lads here. Arsenalist (Zarar) and Altraps asked me to help get things going and that was back in fall of 2009. So we'll be celebrating the forum's 10 year anniversary in a little over 2 years from now.
