This is the official thread in which to discuss anything related Box Office Mojo, which in the case of the back-up forum, probably means they are currently down and/or you are unable to login right now.  |

I don't think it needed another sticky though  Now there is only one thread on the top half of the Derby page. |

I've been trying to unsticky it for 20 minutes, actually.  |

LOL. So what's the real reason for the forum being so slow? Or is it... just being slow right now.

I'm not exactly sure, but Ray had mentioned in the Mojo Meter earlier that there were a few issues remaining. Not sure if its related to the E2 outage last week or not, but probably not a bad bet.
BOM's infrastructure is just old, so naturally, fragile.
Last week wasn't their fault so much, but this time, seems like its definitely on their end.

I was just about to ask if anyone else was having slow load times at BOM today. Ugh.

Shawn, I was thinking about asking you to create a Baumer's Summer Game thread here. Just temporarily until the site's glitches are fixed. This way people can post their predictions here or there. The site being slow might affect the game.
What do you think?

Great idea, B. I can definitely see Mojo's problems causing an entry deadline issue for players (especially those of us that don't post until closer to deadline).
Do you want to make it or me?

It seems to be only happening at primetime. It could just be a simple bandwidth thing. Too much traffic.

The site wasn't having a issue that time, just some guy/gal putting up spoilers and it was that if you didn't want to see the spoilers you could PM Shawn and you will be excepted in there. Have you send a PM to Shawn at the time? |

Obviously, Skynet was trying to destroy (and still is) BOM because of the Terminator Under 125M thread (a classic ;D )

so uh can we all ( and by all I mean you main guys ) make a new forum like KJ
or even better go to KJ and post their from now on cause BOM sucks ?
I'm just throwing it out there but that forum is pretty good and hell even this back up forum looks 10 times better than actual BOM and management over at BOM even told us that BOM will look lame for some time further ( that is when and if its up )
I know it would be a pretty big step for guys like baumer,shawn and all others but I think it would be the best thing cause this just can't be tolerated anymore
Tawasal - I am still pissed at Barca and refs and I can't get over that loss I am honestly gonna go to church on the final day and pray to god for Manchester's victory over that disgusting team

BOM has always been lax with the forums.....but this is getting old really fast. |

Ray just let me know that this is still related to the EC2 outage, and since the main site still loads (slowly), Derby will go on as planned.

BOM management doesn't seem to give a shit about those forums, even though it's probably the most active part of the site. I couldn't believe when I read they aren't planning on making any upgrades for years. I think we should be able to post images and stuff. And also not always crash.
