They cant even put back live threads, as soon as Nick Bjugstad gets traded for a 5th round pick the site will explode.

Doubtful. They already do caching, CDN, and remove certain data during the really heavy times (you know those lite looking webpages you get back) and it happens badly everytime.
I think the only other thing they could do would be upgrade the hosting plan with the webhost but i get them just biting the bullet since it's a very short (albeit big and ad important) time period of high traffic like that per year. There's simply too much traffic/bandwidth to the website during deadline and it can't handle it under the current plan/server infrastructure.

Live threads are a 3rd party add-on, so we have to wait for the devs to update to the current forum version.
That said I do believe we have requested a extra server hamster for the TDL.

It’s tradition. You don’t mess with that

It is far better today then it was between 2002 and 2005.
Just remember to feed that extra hamster. That way we get 56k speeds on deadline day instead of 14.4k speeds.

Next your going to tell me I also shouldn't tire them out by racing them before the deadline.Just remember to feed that extra hamster. That way we get 56k speeds on deadline day instead of 14.4k speeds.
Are you claiming to be able to run faster than 2 km/h? If so, I’m dubious.

Maybe rolling, but I race the hamsters against each other, I'm not crazy.

Stop F5ing pages like a bunch of scratchy crackheads and maybe the servers could be 40% functional.

There’s only 3 guarantees every year at the deadline:
- HF crashes
- TSN hypes the Leafs as cup favs
- Mark Stone goes to LTIR
Its tradition.

I actually disagree completely. This site is very stable and reliable for the volume of traffic it gets. It’s quite good considering it’s not a website you go on to buy things, such as, say, Amazon.

there are more powerful engines out there. A website should have servers in relation to the traffic it gets. Anytime anything of consequence happens in the hockey world, this forum turns into mashed potatoes.

So the site works great, aside from the most important moments of the hockey calendar. Like trade deadline day. Seems optimal for a hockey forum.
It isn’t the biggest deal, I just wonder how many $12 subs would actually make a difference.

for who were not around at the dawn of this website--I rumour would knock it off line for a few days
