Nope to FB for me.

OK BobMC was kind enough to send me an invite to the FB group. Still rather be here but is this thing fucked right now.

[Danno]

Nope to FB for me.

Nobody is saying we move to FB, it's just a place to possibly figure out where we're going.

Nope to FB for me.

Fuck Zuck. That guy is a POS.

I have a strong disdain for fb, but I love the community here.

Please pm me the password for the Facebook group

Only issue I see is this: "144 total members No new members in the last week" So any time frame for approving this influx of new members...

[summit]

I emailed earlier this afternoon and got a VERY fast and informative response that shows they are working on it and still care:

"Summit, thanks for reaching out, and thanks for being a loyal forums user. We have been dealing with quite a few forums issues over the last year plus, and have been doing what we can to keep it going - but we know that the aging tech has caused for a serious decline in user experience.

We are dealing with a significant server issue this week and last and it will be another 5-7 days before that is fixed. That will help a bit, but we know it isn’t the full answer.

The good news is that we started a replatforming process a few weeks back that will dramatically improve the experience, but the bad news is that it will take us until August to have the new experience up and running.

I hope we can keep you in the mix until then, and please do spread the word. Reach back if you have any other questions or concerns.

And again, thanks for being with TGR so long and we hope the new platform stokes you out come this fall.

Thanks Summit. Good news

[BmillsSkier]

Worth the twenty five 502 bad gateway messages to receive that post Summit. Thanks man.

[RShea]

Only 25 for the 502 errors, you must be an occasional visitor these days. Then there are the additional Gateway 504 errors on top of the 502... First attempt that has worked in probably a week...

[BmillsSkier]

The site is loading today. Good job, new Drew. Now, the big test: words with apostrophes... aren't won't isn't we'll just see what the fuck happens.

[J. Barron DeJong]

Whoa, site is working phenomenally this morning. Let's see if apostrophes are working...

Negative.

[BmillsSkier]

The bar for "phenomenal" is incredibly low with the TGRs these days.

[summit]

I'll remain optimistic. Things are improving. The forum is improving.
