What the Flippity Flop is going on around here? 3 3

What is up with the boards crashing everyday?

The new ownership is attempting to wean everyone off the forum. Shutting it down all at once would be problematic.

I can't imagine they would tolerate such blackouts on their investment websites. It's a poor public face. How many potential new clients have logged in to start the process of submitting and run into this? I wonder how many simply moved on to the next grading site?

There's another grading site??

Yeah, that and the moderation is going to the dogs.  I got a listing pulled because I didn't state my return policy.  Easy solution - just drop a note or comment like many members do that there's something missing.  The thing is that it's been a boilerplate I've used for years and now it's a problem.  I think I've received more warnings/strikes over the last 6-8 months than I've had over the last almost 15 years.  I sometimes wonder if these boards are being outsourced abroad and the people who are now managing it just don't get how to keep a board humming along.

ya the constant interruptions to the forums are making it very difficult to buy more comics that I don't need but want very badly

At least blackouts force me to be productive in the day; instead of scrolling through Kang related nonsense. 

There are many sources for Kang-related nonsense.

In fact, given infinitely many Kangs, everyone is indistinguishable from a Kang variant. Thus, everything is Kang-related. QED.

This is either a plan to get everyone to leave the boards or the worst maintained forum on the interwebs.

There’s no escaping it! 

That's what she Kang said.

First they fed you the Newton Rings and people groused but accepted it.

Then they black out the forums for days at a time and instead of rebelling, the villages are just happy their new overlords 

don't shut it down entirely. What is next?

Yup. No wonder it keeps periodically just giving up and having a rest.

[Domo Arigato]

It's very aggravating.

The thing is that since Blackstone recently purchased Reese Witherspoon's production company, Hello Sunshine, for $1 Billion it now views CGC as chump change so it's back on AOL 56K dialup service running on a server that was made by Radio Shack.
