Robert Kampf, a friend of Krgin who runs <a href="/wiki/Century_Media_Records" title="Century Media Records">Century Media Records</a>, was staying with Krgin in New York and set up a meeting with Gunter Ford of World Management. During the meeting, Ford suggested an idea for a "heavy metal portal", a site which would offer news, merchandise, and CD reviews to get record labels to sell their products through the site. Ford wanted Kampf to be involved. Krgin disliked the idea and wished for a site that offered around-the-clock news, as he thought that no good news sites existed.<sup id="cite_ref-Questions_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Questions-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Krgin began researching how to develop and <a href="/wiki/Web_hosting_service" title="Web hosting service">host</a> his own website two months after the meeting. After a year, he felt comfortable going "live". The initial "primitive" version of the site was launched on March 3, 2001. In October of the same year, <a href="/wiki/Monte_Conner" title="Monte Conner">Monte Conner</a> (a <a href="/wiki/Roadrunner_Records" title="Roadrunner Records">Roadrunner Records</a> <a href="/wiki/Artists_and_repertoire" title="Artists and repertoire">A&amp;R</a> and friend of Krgin) approached Krgin with the idea of having the site hosted on the Roadrunner servers. This way, Krgin could focus on <i>Blabbermouth.net</i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">&#39;</span>s content rather than the technical aspects involved in running a site.<sup id="cite_ref-Questions_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Questions-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Sources">Sources</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Blabbermouth.net&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Sources"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>According to his own words, Krgin spends most of his time operating the site.<sup id="cite_ref-Questions_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Questions-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> When finding information relating to bands, Krgin said he searches bands' official websites (including social networking sites), which are usually reported on immediately, and band message boards where members of the band post. He also relies on the contacts he has made over the years ranging from band members, metal journalists, managers, and other people in the music industry, stating this is where the "best" information comes from.<sup id="cite_ref-Questions_1-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Questions-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Krgin supposedly sends emails and makes telephone calls daily to obtain new information. <i>Blabbermouth.net</i> has a 'submit news' feature which has proved to be helpful to Krgin. When receiving a rumor he deems worthy of posting, Krgin will first research and contact people related to the band and question them about the rumour.
