Guys, take a step back… it’s just another URL!
Testosterone.net still works and last I checked, we’re back to having Testosterone across the top.

I believe for some people it is. More so than their gym closing even.
You can’t blame a guy for running a successful business and keeping up with the market. With obesity affecting so many americans, every fitness company of every kind stands to benefit, even if they are based on particular niches. Might as well capitalize on the gold mine.

Okay, since the topic of registering domain names came up, here’s a list of my choices that T-Nation should pick up on…
I feel bad for TC. Infact I feel bad for most of the contributors here. I am sure they want to maintain the hardcore status they have earned. But this place costs money. And the only thing that greases the wheels of this machine is more money.
They need it to develop more products and to keep producing more articles. They need to widen their fanbase and include the fringe people. Unfortunately they are very similar to the retarded cousin who runs around with the bowl of potato salad on his head screaming, you kind of wish he wasn’t there but he’s “family”.
My hope is they don’t forget the people who love T-Nation for what it was, during this time of change.
Actually, from the replies on this and some other threads lately, I think there are already plenty of “retarded cousins” here.
Who else would make such comments on a new URL for this site? It isn’t like 1500T.com is the only way to get here. It’s just another route, which happens to be easier for many to remember.
You replay, “No, you meathead. TESTOSTER…never mind, T-Nation.com.”
Guy yells back, “Tee, Like a golf tee?”
You go over to him and hit him in the head with a kettlebell and miss your pedicure appointment.
If you could only have yelled, “1500T.com.,” everything would have been fine. The guy would have found a new weightlifting home and your toes would be shiny and pink.
But if you’re going to buy a URL like 1500T, why not just go ahead and buy every other URL that relates to testosterone, hardcore lifters, bodybuilding, etc. Hell, you better place an order for anything “Magnum” related too!

TC, it’s cool. I understand and think the more url’s that lead here, the better. No complaints from me.

Sounds like a good business idea to me. Although too many URLs might dilute the brand name. But if you can spend a small amount of money on a domain that will bring a customer to your site, why not gobble them all up?

But now, I’m going to be confused and yell out something like “fitteentest-nationhunnert.nom”.
TC-it’s all good. I don’t know how anyone can get upset that there are more ways to get here. It doesn’t effect any of us, but it does say a lot about society that we have nothing better to do than bitch about something as trivial as this.
