here goes again.

TGR has consultants to keep this forum humming and when they updated some code it caused other things to break. I doubt that it was intentional in any way and also hard to test for the way this is all assembled. But they are getting paid to fix these issues and they’re working with vBulletin to do so.

No one is happy that things aren’t working but it isn’t a question of not caring or money. These guys are in fact getting paid and they’re working every day.

There isn’t much we can do as moderators beyond keeping them up to date with the laundry list of shit that’s broken. Is it that you think we haven’t done that or that we can’t do more that is the problem?

Anyway, the login should be working again from browsers but I haven’t checked yet.

Image uploading is next. I need to get back to Irul’s mom as it’s my turn again.

BEST REGARDS

Click/toggle on browser reader view as soon as it's enabled when page is loading.

"Fun" can still be had. Maybe.

The sites I link to most often--NYT and WAPO--both allow me to share 5 articles/month for free.

Thanks for that. I went from "shit, sounds like everyone is saying TGR is sunsetting the forums" to "oh, the software is borked, the admins know, and they're working on it". Still open to chipping in funds/buying merch etc if there's something we can do to thank the mother ship for hosting this asylum/carnival/literary society

NYT is ten, I think.

Well, I don’t know if this is helpful or not, but I noticed when I accessed the full site (without using an app or mobile interface) it said down at the bottom that I had permissions to do everything except load attachments. Could it be as simple as turning on a permissions bit?

Probably not, but thought I’d toss that out there.

I’m still convinced FetyF is some new street drug because I refuse to accept that an adult male would have typed that otherwise.

This.

I figured FetyF was Rihanna's new clothing line.

Close, you only imagine the tape as you get a shower at the car wash

Fetty is street lingo for fentanyl

So we got that going for us.

Is there really a new server?
No more box fan?

PS. The IT crew has been crushing it fixing problems lately. Hats off to the ladies and gents hard at work. We owe you a beer. Or some fentanyl. Your call.

PPS. Never understood why Todd never had a fundraiser in all these years. Many web sites do it once a year. It’s like npr when I have to change the channel when it’s begging season.

Do you wish there was a winter sports forum without the annoying intrusions that runs on bombproof up-to-date hardware and software? Well there is! We have superior bandwidth and response times on our 5G superfibre network as well as a state-of-the-art virtual blade server farm with 5000 terabytes of virtual cloud storage for your photos and more.I would like to take this opportunity to formally invite you to "start fresh" at our friendly forums. I can assure you that "newbies"'(jongs) are welcomed with open arms by our entire community(unlike here at TGR), there is no "hazing period" or rudeness tolerated. If you are weary of all the foolishness and yearn for some intellectually stimulating mountain sport discourse, then come join our fun-loving but responsible bunch of snowriding aficionados who know the benefits of what good moderation brings to an on-line community. I think most all of you will find that our seasoned moderators "keep the bar high" by maintaining a sense of order and decorum, while encouraging quality discussion about our favorite pastime. It may take a small amount of getting used to, as we do have reasonable standards as far as language and image posting that are strictly enforced. I will warn you however up front that registering an ALIAS is strictly "VERBOTEN", and something we have zero-tolerance with. The registration is easy and painless, and the rules will be explained in detail during the process. If you are tired of the juvenile goings-on at TGR, all I can say is: "Come join the fun"! :)
