Some glitches in threads not showing up as being read (even if I've just read them), but for the most part we're here and functioning!

A couple of things posted this morning while the board was "shut off" had to
be deleted to get the stuff imported from the last few days.

Hats off and more Schaefer than we can ever come up with to our friend and
SQL expert Ben Grimm. Thank you, thank you, and thank you for your help and
guidance getting us in our our new digs!

That should resolve itself in time. (I think.)

Some of the threads are taking me to different ones. The Republican Race 2016 thread in the NBF takes me to Dodger baseball cards...LOL!

Not complaining, as I'm sure this will get worked out, just reporting the issue.

Great work guys!

I get the right thread, but the last post in it is from May 5th when
I posted holy guacamole... weird.

Re: The Place Looks Great

There may a thread or two that are wonky, guess we'll find out.
People were able to post when the board was shut down and that
was not supposed to happen and kinda messed with the plan.

Re: The Place Looks Great

The "eff Wilpon" thread won't show as being read, even when I've just read it.

I wonder whether the overabundance of images in that thread is related to the wonkiness.

Re: The Place Looks Great

Yeah, something's weird with that thread. It may have somehow become corrupted in the transition from the old place to the new.

Re: The Place Looks Great

The new site still throws "malicious site" warnings for me, though that may be a fact that the URL ends with phpBB in general.

The archives, ironically, do not throw the warning. Only the main site.

No worries, I can still access it in my VM, so I'm good.

That's not terribly comforting! Both McAfee and AVG were giving me
warnings before but both are cool so far.

Re: The Place Looks Great

Yeah, I don't see that as good news either. Are we going to have to move again???

I was getting blocked at work in the old place but it's not happening in the new place, so I think we're better off.

Fman, can you tell who it is who thinks we're malicious? In the old place, my malicious warning came from a company called FortiGuard. Do you see anything that will help you identify who it is who hates us?

Re: The Place Looks Great

I'm getting old and stuck in my ways, so I'm not a big fan of change, but i think the time had come and this move was greatly needed. My McAfee and Malwarebytes programs did not like the last host, but they seem to be okay with this one so far.

Great job, as always, by our admins.

This is the color scheme of the place we just left, except for the orange in the banner and near the bottom of the page.

I'm not sure what you mean by "the very first board".

Re: The Place Looks Great

I thought this was the 2nd change and that we had moved once before. I think I first came on the CPF scene in 2003, but I had been lurking for a while before I posted. This was one of the first internet/Mets things I ran into on the web when I went looking. That was right after I finished looking at all the porn. I thought,hmm, what's next, and of course, EUREKA! There must be some Mets stuff out there!

I mean the colors at the top. I'm probably misremembering stuff.

Interesting. The site used to throw warnings up at work but would let me in. Now those warnings are gone, but my home laptop anti-virus blocks me from accessing the site.
