Vox Media owns SB nation which owns celticsblog. They have a billion dollar investment from Comcast ventures so there’s no excuses why this site can’t run smoothly without issues.


Report technical issues to sb nation:  https://www.sbnation.com/pages/contact
Bookmark this link with vox media contact info : https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/vox-media


Next time it goes down on you, call them and ask know why they treat visitors so bad and to upgrade the servers bandwidth  before you get tired and prefer  competitor websites . If that doesn’t work nothing will

I have also been frozen out for the past couple days.  I assumed it was because the site was busy re:the trade deadline, then the Cleveland dismantling.

Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift...

Nope. Has been an issue since before trade deadline.

At this point, I’d recommend that everyone email support@sbnation. Please do it once, but make your voices heard (politely but clearly).

I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

Hi,

I have been a frequent member of the Celticsblog forum since 2012.  The site is a wonderful place to connect with fellow fans on a daily basis, and this is an exciting time for the Celtics.  However, many of us have experienced connection issues for the past year or two.  More recently, I am experiencing 20+ disconnection messages per day, which has unfortunately forced me to find my Celtics information at other sites (e.g., reddit).  Collectively, we request that you please explore an upgrade to the current server as soon as possible.  We appreciate your consideration.

Thank you,
Roy Hobbs

People listen to you, Roy.  I really had no choice.  Hope you'll understand.  Go Celts!

Same problems here. I've been giving it some time to get worked out, but I might be moving on to other sites soon, unless these problems get resolved.

Done

I plainly, but politely, warned them to fix the issue or I will move to reddit.

It took me nearly 20 minutes just to make this one post.

Most likely a max capacity issue. Perhaps a config file variable needs to be increased. Unlikely that the server isn't strong enough to store a basic forum with not an absurd amount of users. If the issues has increased over the last few years (winning team) and near trade deadline, it's even more likely that we're hitting the max concurrent uses cap designed to limit bandwidth to typical use and stop spam bots.

I couldnt get on tonight til now. Over ten years on this great site but my limit has been reached. In a world of amazing tech and most sotes working flawlessly, this is unacceptable. I am now looking for an alt site. Fix this , acknowledge the issue or lose loyal members.

does anyone know of any other active celtic forum type sites?  this site just is not even usable at this point.  Incredibly frustrating, because so many very great bball minds on this site, but if you can't even open up the forums because of technical issues, I am looking for something else as well.

Problem has gotten worse as the site gets more popular.  It's pretty bad right now.
