Could go back to the pre-Slap classics.
Was anything super libelous posted over there recently to get it taken down? You know Americans and suing.
wasn’t there a newly made brink vs slap thread?
i’m over his shenanigans so didn’t even open it.
surely his making candles and knowing tim o`connor can’t wield that much power.
Could be the Chris Cole thing? Someone on reddit said that maybe his GF is paying to get the thread wiped.
They pinned the Chris Cole abuser thread recently so it was the first thing you would see in UWT.
Would be sad if it went. Quite cool how far back it goes. Shame you can’t relocate forums easily
On the subject of Useless Wooden Toys. Watched it for the first time yesterday. Ed T’s FS bigspins. Oof. Can’t believe I’ve not seen it before
I do recall some slating of Michael Burnett recently, but it didn’t seem like enough to pull the plug.
Anyway, it’s a good time to “bury bad news”. Nike SB could ditch half their team and it wouldn’t get much amplication without Slap.
This was last archive.org snapshot, on the 13th Slap MessageBoards - Index
edit: hmmm a lot isn’t accessible
I think I was lurking the day before it went down and the worst thing I saw was someone saying that PJ had bad style.
None of the big threads seemed to have any major updates
Has to be Cole-related, either via JT or Whitney - Brink would miss having a platform for his schizophrenic ramblings so I can’t see it being him.
If it’s gone forever that’s a serious amount of skate knowledge and information down the toilet, not to mention all the Stylin’ on You threads.
I think there’s a ShreddEr News / Tim Pool connection somewhere, can’t check to make sure though because it came up on Slap.
I know it actually doesn’t mean much, but I’ve seen “liked by Don Brown” under a lot of questionable shit
That shredder article takes about 20 paragraphs to say nothing
Looks like they just lift content from everywhere else. There’s a Jenkem story on there, and at least one recent Shop Eat Surf article.
Love that he’s photoshopped like a tiktok beauty filter.
Didn’t the locals build the DIY and wanted nothing to do with Pool so he bought the land to be a Michael Fabricant? Yeah fuck that site.
Continually updated ‘This Michael Fabricant follows jordan peterson’ thread
Same publisher, and the reason Thrasher never tried to have their own forum.
