Chisoxfn Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 After a couple days, the site is back online on the brand new server. It certainly wasn't easy but Kap did a badass job getting us onto the new machine. Its double the ram and soon we will be on Version 3.0 of the forum software. Who knows how much better the site will work on the new server but we expect it to be pretty badass!!!! Let us know if you run into any bugs and thanks for all the patience!!!

kapkomet Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 One bug I'm sure that we will have is uploading of avatars and signatures and things like that. If we can make it through the weekend without that, I will fix it as I'm travelling this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted June 26, 2009 Author Share Posted June 26, 2009 I literally hit referesh 1000 times and I had some idea of what was going on. I felt so naked without the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I must say, with the PS3 broken and this site being down, that was probably the longest 3-4 days of my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Was it Ed, Farrah or Michael that ruined this time for you? All of the above sadly, big fan of Ed, though Michaels hit the worst. So unexpected. Grew up (more of the parents/grandparents though, but I listened as a kid) listening to that talented man. The King of Pop gone.. kinda reminds my grandparents of the Cash & Presley lost. Farrahs hurt more for the older siblings, but she was more of the "anyday" type from the battling of cancer. Still a loss nontheless though probably the first two will be overshadowed sadly.

caulfield12 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) I thought I had been banned by Kapkomet in the middle of the night, lol. Actually, I haven't been posting very much here these days...so that didn't make sense, either. Here in Thailand, I'm pretty much elated if I can get Gameday Audio streams to work uninterruptedly, and when I post at soxtalk.com at the same time I am listening to the game, it kicks me out of the game broadcast because of my weak wireless connection. Not sure what the recent news is...Josh Fields should now play everyday and we should send Beckham back down? AJ relives his past glory versus Dodgers? White Sox are playing pretty well again and still losing ground to Tigers? It actually sucked to have to root for the Cubs, and there wasn't as much joy as in the past when they blew the first game against DET because that meant WE were losing more ground. And Transformers 2 pretty much sucked AND was about as long as yesterday's extra inning game!!! We are now 7-12 in one run games....which is a bit surprising, because our bullpen is the strength of the team. I would argue it's 15-20% the bullpen's fault and 75-80% the offense and lack of clutch hitting in close games. Looks like the "real" power hitting Konerko is back too, nice to see. Alexei Ramirez continue to lead the league in being an enigma...but still, at his age, with his contract, he's one of the best bargains on our team and in the top 10-12 MLB shortstops offensively, certainly since the first 6-8 weeks of the season. Nice to see Aaron Poreda come up big, too. We now know Ozzie thinks more highly of him than Jimmy Gobble, FWIW.

StrangeSox Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 For some reason, the new server gets around my work's filter (soxtalk was blocked for being in the "sports" category). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
