haha do you have a sharpy..?

sup guys, been a while yes. needed some time away from this whole seen. I'll pop in occasionally, though probably mostly in the back room.

Hello all, I'm glad to see all the positive responses to this transfer! After announcing that I was stepping down last February/March, I'm very excited to see what SmashBoards can become under MLG's leadership. I think you have all probably noticed the faster servers, and things will only get...

In an attempt to clear our t-shirt stock, all smashboards t-shirts are now 50% off! That means our "Don't Get Hit" shirt is now only $8.00 + S/H while our "Tires don exits" shirts are only $6.00 + S/H. Once the sizes expire they will no longer be available . Check out...

We have made two additional server upgrades to help with site-performance. First, we are now using a load balancer that will help keep the site speedy during peak times, especially since Brawl is coming out soon in the US. Second, we are now using a Giga-bit switch so we have more bandwidth...

I added back the who's online on the main page for members only.

The release of Brawl continues to bring in LOADS of traffic that cause server load to spike, especially during peak hours. We are doing our best to minimize downtime, but at this point it is inevitable, especially during peak times. My *temporary* advice and *temporary* solution to this...

I have made several changes to our servers today that should optimize site performance. If we continue to have problems tonight I will go through with the RAM upgrade. Thanks for your patience.

Well for now. There won't be a permanent fix until we get that RAM upgrade one or figure something else out. But honestly, just hang in there a few more days and we should have this all straightened out.

We are planning on upgrading the RAM on our DB server and hope this will solve the lag issues of the site. It's looking like the upgrade will happen tomorrow early morning during our non-peak time. Thanks for your patience through all this, and please hang in there at least a few more...

As many of you know, we have been experiencing some traffic surges that have spiked our server load. We are aware of the problem and are working on a fix, although in the end we may need to upgrade the server. With Brawl's upcoming release the traffic will only get worse, so we will do our...

We have a new t-shirt for sale at our store based off the slogan "Don't Get Hit" so check it out at http://smashboards.com/store.php Our first shirt sold really well, but we had some concern that there was nothing on the shirt to distinguish it as apparel from smashboards. Well we took...

They are adul sizes. The next t-shirt model will become available for sale tomorrow or Sat.

when I made that post I hadn't looked super carefully, but it is actually GIFs that aren't accepted. So if you have a JPEG that's best. The problem comes when people rename a gif to a jpeg to get around it (so yeah, I had it reversed in my last post). I think we implemented jpegs as the...

To be honest, I'm not sure. You'll have to go to the checkout and see if it lets you ship it there. I was planning on incorporating the logo into the new shirts, and, eventually when all the tires shirts sell out, I might put it on them when I restock.
