First, on behalf of Doc and the rest of the Moderators, I would like to say thank you to everybody who has hung in with this site. In light of the problems we have experienced during the last several months, it reflects a true yeoman's effort on the part of all of you.

To those who used to post here more frequently, but now spend more of your time lurking, don't feel left out. We appreciate your loyalty as well.

We are now in the process of trying to resolve this issue. That's the good news. The bad news is that it may be several months before this is accomplished. We wish we could wave a magic wand and make all of the problems go away, but unfortunately, it is going to take a bit of time to bring this site back up to quality you have come to expect.

Doc and the staff at R1 wanted me to convey to all of you that your voices have been heard. Thanks again for the support everyone has given to R1.

There is no possible excuse for how poorly these forums have worked for several months

The R1 site itself works fine but the forums are a joke at best....someone needs to be replaced along with the host of the forums...problem solved

EXZACTLY!!!

Oh wait, their is a possible reason, R1 wants to shutdown the forums but they want to make it look like the people just left instead of just coming right out and say they want to shut it down!!!

The folks who "power" the community, are being replaced The community members of R1 voiced their opinions about the current software and were heard.

any update on the update?


Look, it's like the freakin' Dallas Cowgirls....


....the backup QB sucks so put in the 3rd stringer who couldn't possibly suck worse.


Yeah, they still got their butts kicked....but they got them kicked playing with a 3rd stringer and at least they tried SOMETHING.

I thought the lack of a solution was supposed to result in a return of the old-style board.  Was I wrong about that?
