It's pretty much the same.

so the same vicious hostile unmoderated personal squabbles and attacks that have been dragging on for years between the regulars, but just dragged over here? Neat-o!

Probably in the minority here but was hoping for a bit more of the "not" in notplanetrugby

Hopefully not too many of the fucktards we’ve had on bored will make it here but we don’t want an echo chamber

Yes.

Thought I would sign up for the lifeboat, seeing as PR is drifting rudderless at the moment. I'm not sure about the quality of the management here though because they accepted my application.

Please don't expect me to row - you'll only end up going 'round in circles.

It looks like the outage a few weeks back was a snapshot of the bored which they've applied to the new format and done a incremental restore from Monday onto it.

Amateurs...

I got the weirdest message today when i logged into PR


Planet Rugby forum is experiencing some technical difficulties due to a recent upgrade.
MOOSEHEAD - you are the coolest poster on Planet Rugby and all the single ladies / most of the married ladies at the rugby clubhouse find you very appealing.....

They are either Rolling back or haven't finished the incremental restore from Monday.....

Simple to add a message like you're seeing here as a banner....

No - that was a hands off approach for quite some years, although it was definitely moving to a more hands-on approach of late.

That seems better than PR.

If only there were mature technologies that allow low impact differential, read-only incremental restore points of a filesystem.

I regret to advise that it is tomorrow here, and it's still down

Tomorrow here now as well and quelle surprise, it’s still fully PR’d. Or is the tomorrow they meant a different tomorrow?

As a regular contributor on PR for 15 years I am pretty much done with that forum. It's crystal clear that the owners of the site actually don't want the forum to exist and genuinely resent people visiting and posting.

I've heard it resembles a baby's arm holding an apple.

To be, or not to be on Planet Rugby, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The bravado and ignorance of bimboman,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by moving to Not Planet Rugby end them.

No, he had to change too many words.

I changed one (1). Mungo changed none (0).

Meh, it does not even rime.

Sad ending to PR. Thanks Jake

To be fair the owners probably had a click look around, mistakenly clicked on the brexit thread and thought it would be a kindness to kill.

Yes lucky it is free, because if it was a subscription service people would be puce with rage.

They clearly do not give a flying fuck about any visitors to the site, as they treat the punters with complete disregard.

I'm quite ready to fuck it off completely.

The bucket isn't kicked yet, I reckon it's firmly stuck on Jakes foot. Clunk ........ Clunk ....... Clunk!

Thank fvck for that AC

Welcome!

Making match threads over here was proving more taxing than I expected.

And it was a bit of a shame with diluted between the 2 forums.

Glad to have your skills over here.

kicked the bucket is such a shit idiom.

Fuck you all.

sad to see it go....learned a lot over the years. As an American, it was a lifeboat for those who cannot get enough rugby here in the States.

Also, got to meet lots of great folks over the years, lots of Irish and English and welcomed me to drink ups at the matches (pre and post)...still need to meet Mullet one day

Ok so it's not just my login.

Hi Ymx,

Yes match threads are a bit of a labour of love, that's why I always keep my match threads pretty basic. It's form over function. I'm very disillusioned with PR and I think that this place may become home.

Out, out, brief candle!
Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.

How i now feel about Planet Rugby......
