We ran into some unexpected technical difficulties in the middle of the upgrade, so we apologize for the lengthy downtime. I also had to completely re-design the skin again as well (which is why the original S3F is only enabled.) There will be things not working spot on or broken images, all of which should be corrected over the next few days as we restore S3F. Keep in mind that this is a fairly customized site, so it's kind of the price we pay to make it that way (not to mention why we put off upgrading as long as possible.)

Make sure to give a big thanks to RZ as well. While I was working on a lot of the visual/style aspect of the forum, RZ was plugging away at upgrade scripts and other more technical issues.

Just be patient over the next few days and everything should slowly restore itself.

Thanks gang.

I love that it tells me what % full my PM box is. I also love that I know what everything on the top is despite the red X'es.

Yay for Mish and RZ.

Seriously, I thought it'd NEVER be back up.

cool, multi-quote

great job, mish and RZ

Dumb question...what is a multi-quote...is that like quoting different parts of the message?

Halladay_is_God · 02-13-2007, 10:52 PM

you can quote more than one poster at a time, so instead of going back and forth you can do all at once

I just wanted to apologize for the lengthy downtime as well. The actual upgrade went rather quick (about 30 minutes), but we then ran into a server issue that prevented us from working with the Styles and turning the site back on for your use. Once the issue was resolved, Mission was able to get at least this one default skin working. Like Mission mentioned, there are still a lot of things that we have left to finish up and some functionality might not be working correctly. If you do happen to find something that isn't working correctly, just shoot both Mission and I a quick PM to let us know.

Thanks and enjoy the site.

Wow, that felt weird.

I knew the skin was different, and obviously there'd be no more John Patterson and whoever else it was at the top of my screen.

But I look up and it's Vlad Guerrero and Pedro Martinez and I go "why the hell are we using mid-late 90s Expos as the only style?"

Thanks for all the work you put in, mission and RZ.

Its going to take a bit of getting use to but a little change never hurt no one. Its back up and those other features you can always add back in later.

Great job as always guys!! I cannot tell you all how much I enjoy this forum. Is there any way in the near future you could get rid of the Jason Schmidt/Barry Bonds banner in the Giants forum and possibly make a MAtt Cain/Barry Zito or Bonds banner?

Just testing this mulit-quote thing.

Oh, I see, you have to actually click on quote on the last one.
