THANK THE LORD WE ARE BACK!!!
 
I was about to burst. So much to talk about. WhoDat hit a main topic right out the gate with an impressive post cultivated from several of the same articles we have all read. Nice job. Sets a high standard. Anywho, shout out to all who are back on now. Let's talk some Saints. I missed you guys. :oops:

Oh, and great updates to the site guys. Wow. :P

ScottyRo 05-16-2005 09:45 AM

Thank Halo and the others who helped too!

WhoDat 05-16-2005 09:57 AM

Amen Whodi. I was starting to twitch! :D It was like being in rehab, since being a saint fan is like being addicted to crack, we probably all needed it!!


You guys should all really give Halo a huge pat on the back. He's been working like a dog, and still is. Please try to cut some slack for little bugs that we're still working out. If you have a problem, post it to the support forum so everyone can see it.

Thanks guys. Welcome back!

saintswhodi 05-16-2005 10:08 AM

Didn't mean to leave you out in the first post Halo. I tried to be all inclusive, but thanks very much for taking the effort to make the forum a better place. And thank all the guys individually whom we may not know that helped make this happen. It really looks great.

Finally....I don't post a lot but I read constantly. Good to hear you guys at it again.

Halo 05-16-2005 11:26 AM

It's been a lot of work. Everything got updates. It may not look different but I wanted it that way so users wouldn't get too mixed up at first. Read the support forum for details and tricks.

I forgot how bad the nola board sucked. There is always someone acting like a 4 year old over there. I guess you don't know what you got till it's gone (cheesy Cinderella reference).
Good to have you guys back. I realize you attempted to do the upgrade at what is normally a down time. I guess it's hard to anticipate the owner's lawyer threatening to move to albequrque...can't help but think of bugs bunny when i hear that.

I sure hope they stay...but what can I do about it? Benson has made everybody mad, but what does he care? Worst case scenario he moves the team.....I can't believe Saints fans are being put through this, but that's life. There are certainly worse things going on in the world today than our favorite team turning into the New Mexico Sandgnats.

Halo 05-16-2005 03:08 PM

Yasoon,

I think there will always be some news somewhere. Just didn't want to do it in the heat of the last few games where we try to make the playoffs but miss it by division points or a field goal... I wouldn't want to take you away from that great feeling. :twisted: :P

I guess my point is that this board does a good job of maintaining good lines of communication, even in disagreements. There are always going to be opinions that amaze me and I'm sure my opinions are not always on for some people. But, as long as we can go point counterpoint without being jacka$$es, we may learn somthing from each other.
I don't know if the mods just do a good job or if this board is a well kept secret, but there is usually something of substance in each topic. There was some douche over on nola just slinging mud for 5 days.....I almost got in there but I realized that was all he wanted to do...get at people and get attention for being a tool. My thing is that I would say the things I say here if we were all in a room together. Some people use forums as a way to push buttons and live out their insecurities hiding behind the internet. There just doesn't seem to be much of that here and that's a credit to the people who run this thing :D

CHACHING 05-16-2005 05:24 PM

GOOD GOD........been goin thru major withdrawals....good to have ya'll back........

mutineer10 05-16-2005 06:56 PM

Well done, guys! Still getting used to the new forum format, but I like what I see so far. I've missed you all, but it could be argued that a break was needed!

Figured out how to get my skull back, too. Gonna be just like old times soon enough...

saintsfan1313 05-16-2005 07:14 PM

Word to tha Mods, I almost thought the Saints werent even a team anymore since the site has been down...

papz 05-16-2005 10:34 PM

*Cough* San Antonio isn't "football ready" over there... :wink:

Glad to have the boards running... I had no one to talk football or baseball with. I even missed readomg Gumbo's post... it was getting bad. :mrgreen:

jnormand 05-16-2005 11:54 PM

Whoooeee! Finally back! I was getting tired of getting that server down page! Good to see some posting again! I was goin nuts! Hey guys, hope all is well. Now lets talk some football!!

JKool 05-17-2005 12:22 AM

Welcome back everyone! I missed you guys.

It may take a few days to get the hang of all the new doodads! I've been moving too, so I've been pretty busy. I look forward to getting back to business around here. :D (What are we going to do without all the dancing smiles?)

SaintSnide 05-17-2005 07:25 AM

Nice job guys...like the updates.

BlackandBlue 05-17-2005 06:53 PM

Good to see everyone back.

WhoDat 05-17-2005 08:13 PM

So BnB, you figured out how to post? LOL

turbo_dog 05-18-2005 06:48 PM

Very nice job, guys!!!

I wasn't sure what to do with myself when some of the latest news came out and I had nobody to discuss it with. I'm not one of the most active posters, but I am on here almost every day and hold some strong opinions on some subjects. I agree with some people and disagree with others, but I always find the arguments insightful and compelling. Much more so than discussions with even my friends. I know that everyone on here is as big of a fan as I am no matter what their position on certain issues.

I have to say that the board looks really good and it seems to me that the text is easier to read. All around A+ effort.


P.S. Do I have to reload my avatar?

JKool 05-19-2005 01:33 AM

Avatars are available under "Profile" at the top of the page. You may have to refresh your settings to get it to show. Welcome back Turbo.

turbo_dog 05-21-2005 03:39 PM

Can anyone tell me why it says "100th post" above my name? I've looked in the profile section to see if it was some type of sig or something, but I didn't find anything.

Halo 05-21-2005 04:47 PM

Post this in the support forum

Turbodog,

That was a glitch I just worked out. But this goes for everyone because everyone is testing the boards...

Post any possible problems, errors, glitches or complaints in the Support Forum so I can see these and work on the. It's impossible for me to read every post or thread but I do watch that forum and unfortunately people aren't using it. :lol:

Thanks!
