Well, if the current average were to hold for an entire year, we're on pace for 1.3 Million posts. Assuming there's games this season, I'd expect maybe 1.5+ Million. @Moderator12 can you see how many posts were made on the old EMB from April 20th 2019 to April 20th 2020? If not an exact amount, maybe a ballpark figure?

So I'm not sure you can extrapolate like that.
April 28, 20205 yr Anyone visiting the old MB and giving it a sendoff of porn, naked pics and f/u's??

So I'm not sure you can extrapolate like that. We have too small a sample size to really be able to get a good average. That's why I'm curious to see what the old EMBs posting stats were for the 12 months mentioned. I'd also expect that game days would be at least as much as draft day, if not a good bit more. We just have to see how it goes.

While at this point, I don't anticipate being given the database, it would be a pain to have to clean it up if they did give it to us after the 'shutdown'.
April 28, 20205 yr Great work, man. How do the donations get made, and how much is needed to maintain the board?

Thanks, we just couldn't allow the EMB to die without trying to save it. The GoFundMe link is in the first post of the 'New EMB' thread over on the old TATE: https://boards.philadelphiaeagles.com/topic/762989-new-emb/ After the first couple of days of the draft, we learned that an upgraded package will most likely be needed by the time the season (or even pre-season) rolls around. If the current package would have been sufficient, we'd have enough for about 5 years. Day one of the draft showed us that we'll need to upgrade, though. The package that we'll likely have to upgrade to, will run about $2,000 per year. Add to that the annual software license renewals, which is somewhere in the neighborhood of $100 to $125, if I'm remembering right.

I'm starting to like them I haven't looked at the interface for those, but I don't know if more can be added or if what's there is the maximum. We can look into it though. That 'reaction' system was buggy on the old EMB, so we weren't sure how it was going to work here. So far, I haven't noticed any issues, has anyone else?

So far, I haven't noticed any issues, has anyone else? nope. 2 times on the first night of the draft it told me it had trouble reacting to a post. But I assumed that was due to the traffic. So far so good.
April 30, 20205 yr Alright fellas, there's only one Buckeye left on the team. Might be time to change the name.... Johnston1
April 30, 20205 yr If anyone can find the old Sean Considine photoshop thread that would be awesome to copy over... one of my favorites. I've been searching for it but can't get to it. Was probably in 2008-ish.
April 30, 20205 yr Welp I was just trying to spread some last minute cheer on the last board. Yep banned. I didn't even use porn lol Not banned, read only. No fun lol
April 30, 20205 yr Oddly enough, I don’t even feel a need to make any good byes over on the old board. For me, I would liken this to spending a childhood in one home, and then moving into a new house across the street that is almost an exact replica of your old house. Other than Don C, everyone I had hoped to come over is already here, and a few I haven’t seen yet I’d imagine will be over once the old board is officially no more. Im already comfortable enough to leave my dirty socks laying around, much to everyone’s dismay.
April 30, 20205 yr Author Keep hope alive that the old EMB will be given to me/us. There is actually still a glimmer of hope there... if the legal department approves the transfer. So to anyone who sees this, please don't porn bomb the old board, like I've been saying, it'll be a pain to clean up if we do get it.
