It was down for a while, at least days, not sure if a week - but it felt like forever at the time with everyone’s pent up frustration from the game. It was down for a good while. I would check it nearly every day to see if it was back up, and looking now at the archive of the old EMB's member list, I see that it shows my join date as February 28th, 2003 (my member number was 611). I know that there's others with earlier join dates, but not substantially earlier. Just a quick glance, I see Dave's join date as February 27th with a member number in the 300's. Another member on the same day (the 27th) with a member number in the 130's, and those join dates are from just after the switch from that old (non-Invision) software, to the Invision software (which we're still using to this day), which was during that period that the board was down. Toaster's join date was February 26th, 2003 and his member number was 20. So that's probably the exact day that the board came back online.

It's planned to begin at 8:14 PM Eastern Time on Saturday and will take about 4 hours to complete... just kidding, of course. It's either happening late tonight, or early Sunday morning. So if you come and the board is down, that's why. We appreciate all your efforts and hard work on this board, @VaBeach_Eagle! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't specifically remember if it's an option or not. @Moderator12 might remember better, and if it is available, why it isn't active. I have a vague thought that it was because of the potential to abuse that system in a retaliatory sort of way against other members. But that could be completely incorrect. I just don't recall right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we asked about it here, but the idea was shut down. I think it would be good, and maybe there would be less dumb posting if you piled up negative reactions.

Portyansky Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Either a 👎 or a 😡 emoji is needed imo. If people are too sensitive about it, maybe they'll think twice about posting. 1 thing I know for sure, will save me time quoting people in the GDT and telling them that they're morons, fair weather fans etc. 🤣 16 hours ago, VaBeach_Eagle said: Thumbs down, as in disliking posts as opposed to the current likes system? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
