Popular Post Maxman 540,056 Posted February 20 Popular Post Share Posted February 20 We have been putting off an upgrade because I don't like making changes during the football season. But before free agency gets here, it is time to upgrade. Everything will look the same, some new features and a bunch of security & bug fixes. I paid a programmer to design the new theme and it looks identical to the current one. So I think (hope) everything will run smoothly. I am going to do it this weekend, either later tonight or late tomorrow night. Have to see which night I feel like staying up late. Should be half an hour to an hour of downtime. Then the site will be back up, but I have to reinstall plugins and update things. Just wanted to give everyone a little bit of a heads up. Thanks. 19 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Does that mean yes? lol Every once any awhile I get pop up that follows while you scroll a page an they purposely made the X so small that you can't it hit with your finger so, at a minimum, they get a couple site visits because you end up hitting the ad when you're trying to get the X There is a special place in hell for the person that designed that kind of ad. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Please screen print any of that or send me the name of the company. This new ad network is amazing, they can block anything malicious that gets by. Unlike previous networks. For anyone else reading this, we have more ads for guests than we do for registered members. So if you login you will see less ads. It's like a reward. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The thread Monday I think was about the guy trying to get us to sell bogus content. Basically he wanted to run articles that are garbage with links and he would pay us. I didn't respond to him but I assume he also wanted us to do email marketing which a ton of people have approached us about. We turn down a lot of "monetization" options because it would ruin the user experience i.e. the time Scout was going to offer a 6 figure deal for the site and I wouldn't even sign the NDA. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

During the height of the pandemic when NYC was on extreme lockdown, some guy thought he would brighten everyone's mood by singing 'New York New York' out on his high-rise balcony. All he got out was, "Start spreading the news . . ." "SHUT THE FCK UP!!!" I was laughing so hard I was bent in half with my mouth wide open and no noise was coming out, hahahaha. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

joewilly12 25,593 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 We will all be getting free t-shirts after the upgrade. @Maxman Hopefully this is the upgrade that finally deletes/removes @T0mShane by not allowing library or prison computers access to the forum. Heres to the upgrade. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
