Quote from: Jose Papoopoo on Mar 09, 2023, 02:28 PMSo can someone summarize what actually happened? I keep seeing references to Elvis shutting it down, but I thought he  turned over control of the Board several years ago?  Sorry if it's been posted. I just found this site about 15 mins ago...... 

The hosting service expired without a plan for migration to a new server/setup. Elvis had already previously mentioned that he wasn't doing it anymore and that others would need to step up. For a variety of reasons apparently that didn't go as smoothly as it could have. In truth the board had it's share of gremlins being as old as it was...getting a completely new setup will aid in bringing this board into the next several years.

The "attachments and other options" is at the bottom of a post you are about to make. Not a reply.
Well, shit...

Almost 150 people have signed up so far.  That's more quicker than I expected.


Looking over the member list, looks like some old timers signed up.  Waiting to see if they start posting again...

I am very grateful for your service. I am amazed that you got this up and running in less than a day. I think that you can see that it was worth it for all of us. Thanks a bunch.

Thanks for all you did Beau!

If it was a server handoff issue I understand.  Steve's fears of liability over opinions he didn't like in P&R is total bullshit.  As is his "relief" that the old site was dead and gone.  He's down there in Miama getting his wokeness infusion.

Steve tolerated all kinds of bullshit in previous years with his acceptance of the various shenanigans of misogynist MuzzyHitlerHomo.  Posting folks addresses, his horrible treatment of women on the site, and having his banning tournaments were all acceptable to Steve.  What a hypocrite.  If P&R still leaned left no doubt the old site would still be up, or at least it wouldn't have gone away with blame on the P&R liability.

OQ, Beau, DrYank and others who worked to get this new site up and running a big thank you for all your efforts. 

I propose the new P&R board be memorialized with Arthur Hawgarelli.  So that we are reminded of his wisdom and grace in how we deal with the shittiness of the world today.
