Whew!
Certainly a day that will live in infamy in Massillon's storied history...
but Obiefan has proved to the Tiger Nation that the Tiger's NEVER give up!

The greatest website in High School Football lives on!

Let's fill the boards and get it going.

Thanks!

I wanted to open up the floodgates much earlier today, but I wanted to get it right.

The only thing really blatantly missing is colors and graphics for this version of Vbulletin...

The is a great board system Obiefan! It should run circles around the old one.

I don't even remember what life was like without a MP.COM Forum. It's such a staple to thousands of Tigers everywhere.

Thanks Jim for making the nightmares go away. I had visions of posting on Yappi the rest of my life, it was torture.

Thank you, Jim for such a quick recovery.

Although the fire destroyed the forest, which was overgrown anyway with too many weedy posts, we can now see small orange sprouts coming out of the ground!

Good job getting MP.com up and running so quickly Jim! Wouldn't know what to do without being able to check the forums 30 to 40 times a day. LOL

Good thing we were busy at workthe last day and a half or I would have been going nuts.....

07-22-2006, 02:23 PM

I envy you obiefan....Anyone who can get a site up and running as fast as you ......I'm so very impressed. :thumbsup:

Heck, I feel i'm doing pretty good if I get connected to the internet!!..LOL As you can tell, I'm not what you would call computer saavy. It's a good thing for everyobody here that you are though. :thumbsup:

Anyway.....it's good to be back , and I am looking forward to more great debates !! Thanks Again!!

For a moment there, Jimmy, me lad, we thought we had forever lost you. It just goes to show you, you can't keep a good Tiger down for long.

Welcome back from that eerie dark place where dead websites go. (Canton)

I keep following TigerCarl around trying to catch up to him on this forum.

Welcome back to you good friend!!

Yes, this site, to me, is already more user friendly for us "senior citizens" than the past ones.

Spize

07-23-2006, 11:22 AM

Let's take count...

this is Mp.com's 3rd forum?

Obiefan's gonna have to start blowing up computers if he wants to catch up to us... I think the Tiger'sLair (beatmckinley.com) is on what.. number 14?

Good job, and great work Obiefan... looks good and is a far more stable software than IkonBoard.

It is so wonderful to have the forums back up and running.
I was having MP.com Forums withdrawal -- shaking, could not
remember, depressed -- it was getting pretty ugly.
(Whe[Only Registered Users Can See Links.] that's over.)

Had to get a new avatar -- can't find the old one..........but, that's quite O.K.

Now -- GO GET'EM TIGERS!!!!!!!!!

Obiefan and all of the admins on here should definitely be applauded! You guys hands down have the best High school football website/forum around! :thanx:

I just saw the members list, and it absolutely amazes me that we already have 267 people registered again! :tig: :ers:

I think a lot of people were going through withdrawal! I got on Yahoo with Fyrewood and was discussing our fears when it was down! :)

classof65

07-24-2006, 08:38 AM

The old "dark cloud/silver lining" cliche applies here. Lots of dead wood went away and no one can object that someone selected their posts or threads for deletion.

I'm sure though that someone is bound to start all over with the dead horses of the past.

Well, at least the fireworks/bombs great controversy shouldn't resurface this time.

GREAT JOB WITH THE NEW SITE!!!!!!!!!!

Sooooo, what do you think about joining the Fed?? Ha Ha. PLEASE don't answer that. It was a joke to the previous post about dead horses.

That's great, TigerLily but we need to know the important stuff. Like where you stand on coaches wearing headsets, bringing bombs back, and joining the Fed. Now, don't you feel silly that all you were worrying about was your avatar. How selfish of you!!!

TigerLily

07-24-2006, 02:03 PM

Headsets -- Yes, headbands no…..

Bombs -- fire away!! And lots of them.

Fed -- a big fat No

There, now I’ve covered the really important stuff too. (I’m still so happy about my avatar too…..)

To take the time during his family vacation deserves major kudos. Nice work obiefan. It's unfortunate that the hosting company has him (and us) by the short hairs during the busiest time for this site.

obiefan

08-15-2006, 02:02 PM

Kamd-

You are extremely observant!

Emails dispatched from the forum are not being delivered. The problem presents twofold.

- topic subscriptions noti's are not being delivered.

- New usedrs are not getting their confirmation email.

But- Support is working on this, and a few other items!
