Corp000085 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 The board here and over at TBD obviously crashed yesterday. I don't know any of the details except for the fact that the server obviously crashed and had a major data loss. (Hopefully) There are backups and there is time for Scott to get everything in order. As many of you know, KR, Labatt, and I are the mod team. It is our job to monitor the board activity and keep things moving smoothly. We do not have anything to do with the admin side of things though (i.e. programming, server upkeep, etc.) That's all on SDS. I assure you though that SDS is working hard to get sabrespace and twobillsdrive back to normal and to obviously debug and fix the original issue so that this doesn't happen again in the future. Please, if you notice something broken, wrong, not updated, etc. with sabrespace, post it here, send one of us a PM, or shoot one of us an e-mail. I assure you that if scott gets the e-mails, he'll check into it. If one of us gets the pms or e-mails, we'll forward them along. Most importantly, to all of our regular posters and lurkers, we are online and we are in the process of getting "back to normal". Please be understanding that there was an issue and be patient with the progress. To any new visitors, lurkers, or new members, welcome to the greatest Sabres message board on the internet. I assure you that this board will deliver when it comes to sabres news, back stories, inside scoops, game discussions, other NHL news, non hockey Buffalo news, ridiculous popularity contest polls, youtube videos of yours truly talking into a webcam with a monotone voice, and PG-13 pictures of Hayden Pantierre. We're just a little broken right now, but stick with us. We will be fixed in no time! Thanks!

Knightrider Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 Wolf, like me, your sig needs attention...
Bmwolf21 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 Wolf, like me, your sig needs attention... I know...I'm still mourning the loss of a couple thousand high-quality posts. I was soooooo close to 5K, and it's gone. All gone. I am praying SDS can salvage our post counts and options, but I fear it is gone - vanished, like a Sabres' free agent... I'm gonna wait and see what happens as SDS gets the boards repaired/updated...
SDS Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 I know...I'm still mourning the loss of a couple thousand high-quality posts. I was soooooo close to 5K, and it's gone. All gone. I am praying SDS can salvage our post counts and options, but I fear it is gone - vanished, like a Sabres' free agent... I'm gonna wait and see what happens as SDS gets the boards repaired/updated... consider the data gone. Right now I'm just working on getting the old skin back and upgrading back to the version we were using.
wonderbread Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 That sucks, but thanks for all you're doing SDS.
Bmwolf21 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 consider the data gone. Right now I'm just working on getting the old skin back and upgrading back to the version we were using. Damn, that does suck. But thanks for all your hard work, SDS.
BrightLights Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 Thanks to all who are working hard on this. I do not post a whole lot, but I visit the at least once a day, often times more. Those 36 or so hours were like . . . I mean I . . . :cry: I don't want to talk about it. Thanks again to all for your hard work! :thumbsup:
LabattBlue Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 consider the data gone. Right now I'm just working on getting the old skin back and upgrading back to the version we were using. All my beautiful rants about Campbell washed away. Woe is me. :)
Knightrider Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 All my beautiful rants about Campbell washed away. Woe is me. :) Not all of them... :) Lindy really needs to be careful when matching up his defensive pairs with his forwards. You can't take a line of 3 forwards who are "below average" to "average" at best in their own end and pair them up with Campbell and whomever. This isn't the first time this year that the Sabres have given up a goal after not being able to get out of their zone for 30 seconds or more.

You and Inkman are right up there with Palmeiro and McGwire with your inflated stats IMO :nana:
That Aud Smell Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 hey - maybe we could do with a clean slate - not unlike the team. thanks, scott!
shrader Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 All my beautiful rants about Campbell washed away. Woe is me. :) And I have a whole new list of posters I have to cut over the summer. But here's one positive, all those Deluca-Spinner slap fights never happened.
FogBat Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 consider the data gone. Right now I'm just working on getting the old skin back and upgrading back to the version we were using. I see. No wonder there's a banner with ex-Sabre [Chris Drury] up top. Hopefully, things will get back to normal soon. This explains why I couldn't get online the other day. I thought my AT&T AirCard had a brainf*rt.
Bmwolf21 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 You and Inkman are right up there with Palmeiro and McGwire with your inflated stats IMO :nana: My stats are 100% the result of hard work (and ignoring real work.) I have never used performance-enhancers. Period. I would get Clemens' attorneys to run a smear campaign against you, but they seem to be a little busy right now...
spndnchz Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 Thank you SDS for all your hard work! Unlike some of you "old timers" I was completely gone, vanished from existence. to sum it up: Gone are the fears the moments of doubt yielding in bliss to Sabrespace Manifesting truths where magic once sang Forests of recorded thought nurture words unplayed The nature of time changes with these notes and unknown colors light a new heart I had to wait for the gif to finally pop up with the password to re-signup. I guess I wait on the avatar and signature. Too bad I lost all those PM's from you posters out there. Some were quite funny. So do we need a poll to see if we actually want the "season" of posts back? even if we could?
apuszczalowski Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 hmmmm, around the time that this board could have gone into a complete meltdown of "negative posts" about the team and the front office, the server "mysteriously crashes"? hmmmmm.......................................................

darksabre Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 aw man, I'm out over 1000 posts! and just when I was starting to build some board cred. :doh:
Bmwolf21 Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 But we all know you have a helper monkey sitting there typing your posts for you. Seems like it sometimes, doesn't it?

Seth Greenstein Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 I'm just so sad that BarryBeck and his genius is all gone... So in honor of Barry: I\m very sad no Jagr talk me love Rangers. Sabres goodly but not like me Rangers. theys the awesome. Oh yeah, and being dropped from a 3rd liner to a top prospect - that just doesn't seem right!!! :)
