No threads during fight...shhh...private

it's a lock-in. should be cosy i feel for the poor thread that has to hold all the chatter once the fight starts There is one thing I will admit......Mayweather is great to blog about. He does generate the notoriety. Clever little shit.....

board will be down the whole night

As if it's a sombre funeral, the site has muzzled blogging during the Floyd/Marquez fight. Could only mean one thing.....somebody thinks Floyd is about to fold. I doubt it. So what's the reason things are restricted during the fight?? Whenever there's a quite big fight, the site goes down... yesterday right after the weigh-in the site went really slow and went down a little bit... I think them making it private and stuff will help stop it cause they think it has bigger chance of going down than most fights.

Well isn't that a brilliant idea. Stop the site from crashing by shutting it down... Yeah...but still. You gotta admit this has the feel of something omenous. Is this the night Mayweather gets exposed...or worse? Something is wrong.

i think they made them so people won't try to give out links to fights....i think HBO has some part of this as well Nah it was just all the moaning about the server going down during the weight in and stuff

They're trying to contain the traffic that shuts the site down during/after every major fight. Well isn't that a brilliant idea. Stop the site from crashing by shutting it down...

If it went crazy yesterday because of the weigh in for this fight, imagine during the actual fight of Pacquiao vs Cotto? It's a good thing they're doing this, though. At least we can log on to the forum.

There goes the robbery and I told you so threads I was planning on. Actually I was planning on making them regardless of who won. Now, I can't. Damn. :lol1:........

Two good things comes from it, the forum probably won't crash and posters can still post as soon as the fight is over( just in one thread, which makes sense). Normally after any Mayweather fight, its crashed for hours. that is the point.you got a thousand and 1 morons posting the same shit.let bpp start the threads.

Oh....ok...............gotcha.....message received....understood...over and out......STILL, its a bad omen. Have you not tried to post after a big fight. It's always a nightmare. About time they did something IMHO.

They don't want the site to blow up. A lot of users will see ads tonight, which makes them money, so if the site goes down (ie the hamster that powers the server) it's definitely a bad thing. Below is a live picture of the hamster hard at work powering the website. http://www.fotosearch.com/bthumb/ITS/ITS268/itf132075.jpg Oh....ok...............gotcha.....message received....understood...over and out......STILL, its a bad omen.
