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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm not sure you can extrapolate like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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'.

VaBeach_Eagle Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 Just a rough estimate of about 550,000 there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uscg-green Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleJoe8 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaBeach_Eagle Posted April 30, 2020 Author Share Posted April 30, 2020 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
