All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
This is only a test
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Like I said, I dont deal with this stuff well. Id ask for a bit of understanding, Im more than willing to be understanding of why you all think it was wrong. Again, Im sorry.

My dad died in a plane crash when I was 15. I deal with things the same way. You don't need to apologize.

See these people below, they will be without him. There is a 6 year old boy that can't throw the ball around with his dad, get hugged and kissed by him goodnight. Melanie now has no one to help her raise her kids, have more kids and is instantly single. These are people's lives, sad but true.

"The whole plane has a parachute [that can be deployed in the event of emergency] on it," Lidle said. "Ninety-nine percent of pilots that go up never have engine failure, and the 1 percent that do usually land it. But if you're up in the air and something goes wrong, you pull that parachute, and the whole plane goes down slowly."

Hey man, you told your point of view. I respect it. Lets not rub it in here.
I was in the United States Coast Guard and was part of a plane crash recovery at sea. I remember VIVIDLY that day, everything I saw, smelled. I have seen a different part of reality than many of you every will.
Many basically checked out of there minds that day and found ways to make jokes so as to not try to deal with something they cant deal with. Does it give you sick sense of humor? maybe that day. Its a life changing event.
Theres specifics from that day including children that still bother me.
Lets not try to "instruct" each other on such matters. Lets just assume that each of us has experienced things in our lives that have changed us. Lets assume that none f us knows eachs others stories well enough to assume that any of us act out with a cold heart.
I respect all of you, yes every single one of you. Im only asking for a bit of understanding. I dont need to be shown tragedy, Ive lived it like many of you have.
My hearts in the right place, it was meant to be an harmless shot at the Yankees, not a shot at a father/husband who just perished.
