You had it right the first time. We are completely worthless.

You mean mostly. You are lousy at negotiations.

I would never call you worthless. You frighten me. You're quiet and reserved. At least with Kite I know I have the " that's just the Alabama in him" benefit of the doubt.

While I agree with you I don't see the relevance to this conversation.

Why not do that at 3am when there is less traffic. It makes no sense to did it in the middle of the day when everyone wants to come here and post.

If you want to hit happy hour for a few drinks then sometimes you have to push stuff through during business hours.

I'm not sure if the gradual in focus of the Avatars is an aesthetic touch or is just a bug.

I will say the site being so slow is annoying. The combination of this and having to watch hokey is pissing me off.

Agreed, 247 seems to have a lot of issues with the servers they are using what ever they are.

All the scheduled down time and it's still slow as crap and is down other times. #Frustrating

No excuses. We're not going to slow down and as we grow, there will be datacenter issues like we're having now.
It sucks, but I know where I want this network to be and I'll keep pushing until we get there. Today we got unlucky with some hardware (and still are), tomorrow it may be something else, but we'll keep the foot on the gas during the offseason to get you some enjoyable features during the season.
Want to try us for free? Send me a message & I'll give you a 7-day trial no cc necessary. Follow me at: http://twitter.com/NoahStanley247

Thanks for your continued efforts, Noah.
Just out of curiosity, what types of features can we expect this off-season? And has there been any progress made on the envelope-statuses working properly?
I have done work in IT as well, so I feel your pain, and don't mean to complain. Just curious.
Thanks again.

The only problems I've been having are with the envelopes resetting on here and my homeboard. Other than that I haven't really had problems on my laptop or my atrix. Although these emoji's still suck!

Would you rather them not work on the site at all and be like Rivals where nothing has changed in years? Or have problems getting on for a few hours every couple of weeks?

Name one implementation of a suggestion from the users in the 16-17 months of this board. The stuff they working on comes from the wrong priority list.

Tweeter feeds, Timelines, rankings earlier, team rankings, schedules, rosters, countdown clock, and more have all been implemented since I have been here and all or at least most have been suggested by posters. I would say most paying posters come here for info on recruiting, the analyst, and inside look into their team. I would venture to say that most members pay and rarely post and mainly read the articles and look where the rankings are for players. In that area there have been ton of improvements. People don't pay to have bells and whistles on their messages board they pay for the info that is provided by the analyst and homesite staff.

Furthermore... The two sites I know about that are larger here are Auburn and Bama boards (I don't know about OSU or MSU boards cause I'm not a fan of those schools). If you asked the members on those sites if they would rather have info on their team, recruiting info, better recruiting services and rankings or cool functions on the message boards and less info and better recruiting services. I would bet that the majority would take the recruiting side of things instead of the bigger pictures etc.
