I've got nothing to say fellas. Really kinda disappointed that the owners have not been keeping up on the security certificates. For the inconvenience, know that I apologize, but there is little that can be done by me or the the mods.

Anyone know the price tag on the site so we can band together and buy it. Kinda sorta kidding here.

A couple of us are talking about it offline today. I don't have a current quote, but if you're serious PM me and I'll include you in the discussions.

What would be easier. Buying this site, and upgrading, or buying DD and just moving and taking over.....

Would suck to lose the archives, but at this point it would just be nice to have an engaged owner that is paying attention and will upgrade the software on occasion so we can benefit with technology advancements. Stuff like notifications if you @ a poster, easier embedding of media(Especially all the new video formats), and other stuff that sites like Surly Horns have.

I really don't care about all the bells and whistles, but yes, they are much nicer. At this point, I'm used to the rotary dial of IE lol. Just keep the f'ing certs paid for.

But yes, it would stink to lose the archives. Perhaps we could send seal team 6 in to heist them. IMO, the owners might be hesitant to upgrade just because the migration effort... and they're cheap too.. lol

PM me when you get a price. If Domer Domain is the same group, ask them about both.

I'm not a tech guy, but with no security or whatever the donk is happening right now, can we just steal this thing or is my credit card being ganked for no greater good?

You have your credit card on file with Irish Envy?

What all can one buy from Irish Envy?

It’s really a joke, I spent the past day and a half looking for other Notre Dame forums but none are really worth it or are active enough. The activity rate on this forum has certainly dropped compared to past years, and all these tech issues are just going to further kill this board.

I may be a bit out of line here. But it’s ridiculous how often this site has issues. No other site i frequent has had any issues at all but this site has had them reoccurring going on over a year now.
 

GATTACA!

That is what happens when active posters get banned

Or we could just invade and take over DD... Anyone know the management or mods over there?

But yes, add the blackjack and hookers.

I used to post on DD, the site has become pretty dead the past few years. Like IE they were more active in the past. I think the two sites coming together would spice things up.

I'm not sure what else is out there besides IE and DD. I think I signed up for DD at one point, but just never hung around. I'll have to take a look. If their traffic is down, might be a welcome injection if we all jumped.

IE has a much larger user base based on post. It would be easier for them to come over but not sure how welcome they would be to that.

The whole object is to get away from this site and get onto a more stable, and newer platform. The only bad thing is loving the archives. That's it.

The under the Dome forum at rivals is pretty active, maybe even more than this site. Only problem is that it’s their free sub forum and their Main Irish forum the Rockne’s round table as well the recruiting ones are behind a paywall.
