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!
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

So you think going from pussy and beer/***** better have my money to Bang or Bucks being too offensive for the TZ is ok? Not too mention that changed over the course of 4 days.
If you are referring to the first "election" I was unaware anyone actually took that seriously. It was basically "Insult Competition light" hell there werent even registered teams. I totally was joking around, had I had the time to run in this election my stance would probably change on certain things as well. Or id at least take it more seriously then I did that first goof-around.

I'm sorry Mikey, but that's just stupid.... Taking over the whole board? Have him stop posting all the stuff he does and see how long it takes before everybody is *****ing about how boring that place is. Oh, and don't you participate in ALL of those games he does... didn't you BEG to be in Deal or No Deal?
So far as I know BZ was around years before MBB got here. Dont get me wrong, I have a good time with his games but I assure you whether any of the remaining presidential candidates were here or not the TZ would be fine.

I think one of the biggest shockers I have had on the zone was when LifetimeBillsfan made the zone rankings and everyone said who? Thats just an atrocity. He is one of the BZ best posters and people just dont know the dude. He has written for the front page at times too. We need to a do a better job supporting and promoting the people who take the time and write for us.
Wasnt your list the composite of 3-5 different people?
To my knowledge we give writers a pretty big medium to write for, many have gone on to write for even larger sites. Our news/frontpage staff are supported very well by shelby, nbf and others. Nbf posts in the main forum when new articles go up as well. They get plenty of support and recognition. A couple of our writers have used us as references to have opportunities writing at larger football sites. And youre right, LTBF should absolutley be asked if hed like to contribute to the front page as hes an excellent writer......Oh wait.......
And correct me if im wrong but the 2007 Billszone poster of the year was LTBF, he won in a landslide. 2nd place was like a dozen votes back, not to mention how many nominations he had....how is it no one knows him?

You mean like we do now? Or creating a myspace page? Or cross-promoting with other sites? Or the other various ways we promote and support Billszone.com? You know all the extra stuff that takes place on top of moderating the forums.

Gee Devin... why don't you just say "we're doing every thing already, there is no need for this contest"... Would have been much easier.
