The vent is still very much alive and well. That was the first message board I ever started posting on back in 2000.

At some point around 2006ish rivals split it up to have a premium pay board (keeping the name dawgvent) and keeping the free board everyone knew now called dawgchat.

The board OP is talking about is some shitty knockoff version of this site but for uga that hasn't existed in many years. It's extremely odd.

They did this to TideSports in 2010, except Rivals took over the site and killed it to where you had to have the Rivals account to have access. All they wanted was a price tag on Cecil Hurts articles but it ended up killing TideSports, which was easily the best Bama forum at that time.

Damn shame too. Last year the Tuscaloosa News/TideSports tried to make it free again and start the boards back up. It's sad to look at now, no activity in almost a year:
