The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
Is the notification bar loading weirdly on this forum for anyone else? It's not a big deal since everything still works fine, but it looks bad from an aesthetic standpoint.
Literally just fixed for me. It had been screwed up all day.

This board seriously turns to shit once a week. I feel bad for Buffaloed having to deal with it and the Evolve overlords.

I noticed the same with the top navbar as well, still loading strangely for me.
 
they f***ed things up by adding those new categories on the ribbon "NHL eastern conference" "western" "other leagues" etc.

if you minimize your browser window width so that all the categories cant fit on the ribbon, it will create a menu icon that you have to expand, but it allows your Notifications/Messages/Username to fit and remain on the ribbon.

but when I maximize my browser window so that it can spell out all the categories, it kicks off the Notification/Messages/Username and puts in white blank page space underneath making it hard to see if you have notifications or messages.

Uhhh...I just accidentally don't have the mobile site anymore. How do I get that back. Doesn't seem to be any option at the bottom.
 
Man, ESPN are f***ing criminals. You already need to have a cable subscription to access ESPN3. But then they go and create this new thing, ESPN+, and have the audacity to charge you $5 for it a month? That's total shit. So now I have my cable subscription with ESPN, but that's not enough, I need to have this + shit so I can watch the Buffalo game today.

In order to watch this game, I need to cast it from an app on my phone to my television. The future is so stupid.
 
Besides @Hunter Gathers I don't recall seeing any of you over there, but the Politics Forum suddenly vanished and got purged today. Odd. Deep State!

You know what's annoying, is that when you have people on ignore, sometimes you go into a thread and it shows you the frame of the post from the ignored poster and asks you if you want to view content. Then other times, it doesn't do that at all. I'll go into threads and clearly there's a conversation taking place with one more more people I ignore, and the only way I would be able to figure out who it is and what is going on is to just purge my ignore list (which, f*** that). I wish it gave you the "view ignored content post" every time. :(
 
They deleted the forum. I was on there a lot too.

Mods decided it was more trouble than it was worth and nuked it.

RIP
That's really interesting.

We used to go back and forth about The Lounge all the time. There was a group of us staunchly opposed because it was a lot of work to monitor and a lot of the stuff bled over into other forums. And of course, there was a group who thought it was good to have, as well--not totally different from old discussions about allowing an OT thread in each forum.

Anyway, the Political Board was never really something that was questioned, and it was never really problematic. Like people would report stuff, but the forum was "unmoderated" so the moderator action was 99% of the time to leave it alone. Unless someone was threatening violence or encouraging some sort of illegal behavior, we never went in there. And honestly, there were very few problems. So, I'm kind of surprised that it became a problem.

Maybe in the current political climate, it became more contentious. I mean when I used to post there it was usually somewhat one-sided in terms of a dominant ideology, but maybe that changed? Who knows.

You guys would have liked the real old school OT place. Rogue's Den, or Rogue's Lair. The exact name escapes me at the moment.
 
I actually got PM's from some of the more prominent posters about joining the new forum. I don't know about having to log on and change back different forums. Although some of the discusisons were decent, will probably hold off registering on the new site at least for now.

This was the announcement.

The political discussion forum on this site has been removed. It will be not be resurrected. After months of discussion with the admin staff it was unanimously decided it was consuming an inordinate amount of our time as well as our moderators time. They didn't sign up to deal with problems that aren't related to the mission of this site. It has poisoned relationships and driven a wedge between users. Political discussion will no longer be permitted unless it is directly related to hockey (eg Russia banned from Olympics, Exchange rate hurting Canadian teams).
 
Wow, things must have deteriorated. It used to just be its own thing that 95% of HF didn't even know about that caused no problems. I could guess what happened, but I won't go down that route. :laugh:

Join it. I've been trying to send out PMs to those who I remember who enjoyed the discussion.

You can find answers to many of the questions. It's nothing that "deteriorated"; it was the whining of one or two individuals.
