Around SBN: Devils Beat Rangers, Head To Stanley Cup Finals

The Hour Is Looming

by Jeff Sullivan on Mar 25, 2008 7:31 PM PDT in Seattle Mariners Regular News

At 9pm PDT, this site will go down for an extended period of time while all of the content is moved to the new platform. Around midnight or so, it'll be back up as LL v2.0. If you think you'll get homesick, save this picture.

I know many of you have your concerns about the new layout. God knows I do too. But rather than complaining all willy-nilly, save your breath for now. The developers will be here in the morning to answer your questions and listen to you bitch. Talk to them. They know a hell of a lot more about this than I do.

Just do me a favor: regardless of how upset this transition may make you, be respectful and understanding as you air your grievances. Outright belligerence isn't going to make the screen wider or the avatars disappear.

I can't wait to write a FanPost!

9pm will mark the death of "katal", too. I'll be switching to a new user id when the revised site hits.

Yes but see

I'm going away and never coming back. David Corcoran/Corco was a USSM invention that was eventually dispatched as a virus onto the LL Server. The creator of said virus has, at times, hired a human to act as David Corcoran/Corco

And this virus does not fit the new code. Bummer
