SDMB Server Migration/Upgrade Plan

Thank you, Una! That one totally made my day!!!

This is good news. I’m glad that patience has won out over impatient idiocy, er, infantilism, er, that is, um, unhappiness. :eek:

But please note that the LAST server upgrade already had us up to Capybaras. They didn’t work well enough at all. We need something Prehistoric in size to make a real dent in our efforts!!! :slight_smile:

I’m hoping for cheetahs.

We’re really not all that picky. But Lou Malnatti’s is generally a safe choice, and while their online ordering is only for shipping frozen stuff, they do have telephones now. :wink:

ivylass, I’ll play. If I’m using my Location field to help a man get elected president, I guess I can use my sig line for something important! :smiley:

ETA: Oh. Right. Gotta check that box *after *the Preview.

I nominate Josephoartigasia monesi.

What an unexpected surprise my own systems(all 3 of them) are also being upgraded this weekend and we’re also finally ditching ‘‘peasant net’’ and having a wireless antenna installed on Tuesday. My systems here haven’t been upgraded since the boards separated from AOL. Needless to say I had thought the boards would upgrade before I did but both at the same time. I’m going to have to sit down this is just too much for one fisherman to bear.

Oh and thanks to Jerry and the team.

Seconded. Lots of big upgrades and boobies…Hell I’m going to have to lay down for a minute. :smiley:

Ohmigawd! I can’t believe the server and the board are being updated and on my birthday no less! This is friggin’ sweet! I knew you guys liked me, but I didn’t realize it was this much!

No but seriously, I know I’ve been really down on the administration in regards to the board and I wish to give everyone my effusive thanks and praise and apologize for my cynicism.

I’m so happy!

Fantastic!!

My heartfelt appreciation and thanks go out to TPTB who are (finally!) making this happen. Can’t wait till it’s finished!

Oh, and count me as another who is saddened by the still-enforced rules during the changeover. I was hoping for wanton hedonism! :stuck_out_tongue:

This work Una? :smiley:

And so it begins…

Rumor has it the SDMB is upgrading the power source to this.

:smiley: I keed, I keed.

:smiley: Nicely done!

This one would work for me.

The carrot festival, I presume.

Ya know, it just dawned on me with the SDMB down for the Labor Day weekend, that leaves the Jerry Lewis Labor Day Telethon as its replacement.

OK, anyone want to tackle the new lyrics for just this Amnesia Weekend?

And the title should aid you in writing our lyrics …

“You’ll Never Post Alone”
Takers?

Good news! And thanks to those who do all the hard work. And now I won’t need to care when “Labor Day” is 'cos I will know I have it noted down as “SDMB changeover”. Ignorance-fighting with a difference. :slight_smile:

Or Jerry Davis Labor Day Dopeathon
(Heck, I hadn’t realised that Jerry Lewis was still alive. :smack: )

That is debatable…

yay and thank you Jerry for your hard work
now - about those extra smilies… :wink:

Jesus Christ, there really *is * a Santa Claus. Spread the words kids, we lost a lot of friends through attrition over these last few years, hopefully we can hear from some long lost missing Dopers after the “change of life” takes place. Go tell it on the mountain, hit all the friendly boards, Facebook, Myspace, etc. Tell everyone who left that it’s time to come home.

This is just the absolute shit. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Thanks Jerry, Ed, CL, and everyone else with a hand in this truly momentous undertaking.

Free at last, free at last. Thank God almight…Ok, I’m getting carried away.

any possibility of including up the Chess add-on app? Or other games?

Will older posts be returning anytime soon? Hopefully so … :slight_smile:
