I mean, we all appreciate what you do and appreciate improving the boards, but I don't think any of us appreciate it THAT much.

Holic, I just want to say that your new sig is hilarious, but also makes me want to projectile vomit on my screen.

Do you like to go fishing? We may need to call on you during a game in which we are trailing. LOL. Every week!

This thread has taken an odd turn.

I was just sitting here thinking, as I listen to the people across the street talk loudly as they get into their vehicle, that I need more tobacco and tubes so I'm going to be going to the tobacco store tomorrow.

Then I started thinking about what if there was a zombie apocalypse or society broke down and there were millions upon millions dead around the world that the first place I would go to is the tobacco store and clean the place out. Tobacco for my own personal use and for trade...it would be very much needed during the end of the world.

I would also need generators and many gallons of both gasoline and diesel and how I would store that for the long term.

From there I started thinking about the show "Diesel Brothers" and how those guys are absolutely nuts.

That got me thinking about how they make the bulk of their money by Internet sales of diesel parts.

That then got me thinking about how the Bengals Board runs slow on my iPad and this thread about moving to a new server.

Now I'm thinking about how bad the Bengals are.

Now I'm thinking about sex.

Now I'm thinking about sex during a zombie apocalypse.

Now I'm thinking about how zombies would reproduce once everyone has been turned.

Now I'm thinking about how cats are only good for target practice.

Now I'm thinking about taking a nap.

I'm going to go take a nap.

[Passepartout]

Hope you have a good nap I guess!

Seriously, the ads help to cover the cost. Plus, I would never be comfortable with asking for contributions. You guys are the reason this board exits and continues to grow. I would say that you've more than done your part!

:andy:

Code for turn off your damn ad-blockers and click on the ads every once in awhile.    


In all seriousness, thanks for everything you do and the awesome new home.

The switch will happen sometime in the next few days, and the site might be down for 1-2 days while the migration and some much needed database work / maintenance take place. Once I have the exact date, I will post an announcement at the top of the site, and on Facebook and Twitter in advance.

Hopefully, everything goes smoothly and we don't any issues. I'm paying some professional web geeks to assist in the transfer. Overall, I think it will be very good for the site in the long term, which is always the goal.

Thanks, BJ

In all seriousness though (the thread was fun to read), I'm not very tech savvy, am I gonna have to change anything on my end to get to the site?  I would be sad to not be able to get on here.  As someone else said it is cathartic more than you may know.  I've gotten used to the set up, and I have everything saved so that all I have to do is click on it and I'm here without even typing in my password.

You wont have to do anything, other than wait for the site to go live again. It will be the same url. The migration will most likely start on Friday.

I've also updated the OP, so everyone please read when you get a chance (bolded part).

Is the Gameday thread still going to be open for the Packers game? If not where can we all chat about the game. Even though it might be a bad idea for me to be in there amongst my opponents.
