Quote from: Tecno on October 29, 2026, 08:48:57 PMThis site goes down nearly every year like clockwork.  And it's often around playoff start too.  I remember one year is was down for like 2 weeks around the WSF?

Glad to see they got it back up in time for our next game!

I do a lot of web admin too and we're all dealing with the PHP2Shell fallout.  This site is PHP too.  Everyone should change their passwords, BTW, and make sure you don't use the same pw on other sites... Every PHP site may have been compromised Oct 17-Oct 22 (longer if the admins didn't patch...).

That's very good of you to let us know, Tecno. I hadn't heard this and thought I was up on everything TCP/IP.  LoL!
Go Bombers!

BTW, welcome back everyone!

Why do you say that?  Serious question - is there a reason to think this site won't be around much longer?

Just the age of the site and the frequency of it going down. It's out of date and we don't see these sites supported across the league, as stats junkie mentioned. Resources go to social media, where they can collect the most clicks and traffic.

We're too small a community to keep this going forever, I think.

Aah okay, thanks for the explanation.  That would be very sad if this died, it is such a great community

I was able to post a couple of images just now. Depth Chart in the game day thread and penalty details in the numbers I track thread.

I have no problem copying and inserting a link using the usual method.  Are you still having a problem?

That is a name I forgot! Wonder whatever happened to Nasty Nate also? I do remember you GOLDMEMBER as you have been around as long as I have. Not part of the conversation but I still chat with Colin Unger (Mookie) from time to time. He actually lives in Nicaragua and does some online selling.

Yeah.

I have posted pics from X in the past with no issues.

But, today nothing shows up.

No doubt you've tried the usual attempts to fix....close the site, shut down your device and restart it.

Just got a survey from the Bombers, and there was a page on engagement, which mentioned the Bombers site, and the Bombers ap, but not the forum at all.

Makes me wonder if they give us loyal fans any thought, especially with other teams abandoning their CFL.CA based forums.

This is far and away my favourite way to follow the Bombers, and interact with fans.
