...what will you do?
Stay here. This forum is loads easier to use. Just delaying the inevitable if we go back there.
Stay here.
Going back would be stupid.
I'd hope people would do that, but I'm not convinced it'll be the same for all.
Don't see any point in going back to the old board.
Yep. There's no point going back. Redirect it. We can change stuff here. We should get it out on social media and get new members. At least they can sign up.
We need to stay here.
The other forum is going to go down at some point, therefore we're only delaying the inevitable move. We need to make sure that the appropriate links are put up for redirection. It's not as if TTH has been driving new members in and we're suddenly going to lose them either.
For those of you that are saying you wouldn't go back, how many of you have tried to see if it's still down since this place started?
We should probably just make this work now.
Good man Andy.
I've also deleted the old bookmark and replaced it with this.
Most people have migrated over, it's functioning and we have someone who is actually engaged in making the shit parts of the forum better and more useable. Why the fuck should we go back?
Lol at 'when' by the way.
We definitely need the likes of Floyd/Ital/Taz to come and make the effort though.
By accident actually, muscle memory went straight to it on the favourites bar.
I would prefer to stay here, lets use the email database and put some redirection info onto the old TTH if/when it comes back up. Going back would be a definite death sentence for the group, staying here it's only a possibility.
I won't bother going back. I sometimes accidentally click the old link but it's not running and it'll be replaced in the usual list soon anyway.
Still have it open in a tab at the top. Still telling me that the website is offline. RIP TD.
I'll be sticking here now. I haven't checked the old place since moving over. Old TTH is dead. This place looks better, it's quicker, and most people have come over already. Floyd will come on board, as will Taz.
Taz already signed up as 'Don', no?
Another who went by accident. Just tried it again now. Still down. I think we need to get on there at one point, if nothing else, to post the link to here.
Floyd will probably cave when he realises there's no going back.
Get the database used to let the rest of them know, if it hasn't been already.
He has yeah but hes blabbing on the teh fuge about not actually moving.
Ah, well then yeah, no point anymore. If and when it comes back up hopefully people see it and move along to here.
Bringing a tear to my eye here lads.
He's probably still not over his WDYTOE meltdown.
The only advantage the other place is, is attracting a few new members. Otherwise, no, it's dead and despite years of hard work, the neglect from Mark has finally killed it.
Him and Saint donning TR.
What killed the old place in the end? Why was it going down? Presumably it isn't fixable without Mark? Not that there's any point now but it would be nice to know what went wrong.
He stopped giving a shit about it, basically.
His last throw of the dice was [FOOTBALL] and when that didn't make him millions he lost all interest.
Yeah but what happened technically? Why is it fucked now but wasn't two years ago?
I wonder if he actively ignores the emails the mods have been sending him or it's just a mix up? He sounds like a bit of a wet flannel by all accounts.
He should have just given IJ (dork) full control in, what, 2009?
Board software not being updated I think.
I check to see if the original site is back up, but I prefer this place already.
Board software is ancient apparently. The site itself couldn't be updated or controlled by those who were willing to graft. They rightly gave up and left.
Yea, I keep checking the old one but only because I can't be bothered to update the bookmark on my phone and I keep forgetting it's to the old one. On my laptop I've deleted the old one. I won't go back if it comes up, but I'd like to make sure this place is clearly sign posted for other people.
Seems alright here like.
There is no point going back. Least here we have people that want the best for the community etc, instead of Mark. Taz will come over soon and no doubt he's reading everything.
The old place may have had more profile to attract new members but registration was a nightmare and only a fraction made it to TTH, so what are we actually losing?
Basically the board software was so old that you have every spam bot in tge world getting through ths defenses. We consistently floated 300 guests and at an estimate id say about 10% of those were real. So you have 350 bots hitting every page constantly. Probably would have saved him bandwith cost to fix it but meh.
This fotum was created when it went down last time. Mark was given an outline 3 weeks ago. Not even a 'Seen by Mark' in that time. Its past not caring into actively hurting the place.
I'll be posting on both.
Just deleted the bookmark. Fuck The Dugout. Long live TTH.
