I have no idea of the problems with the Valleytalk site but RoyalShock's Valleytalk site is still up at http://shockernet.yuku.com/. Can that be used Royal? No posts since 2006.

Wow! If you found that it must be a slow day! ;)
Actually, someone setup a new MVC forum when VT went down. I don't mind posting this one since they don't have a competing WSU forum. I found it as I was browsing the SIU board, so I suspect it might be run by a Saluki fan.
It's a different board format, but the forums are categorized much like VT was.

Nobody is posting on the new MVC site. It's not worth a visit.Some posts are not visible to me. :peaceful:
Don't worry too much about it. Just do all you can do and let the rough end drag.Comment

1. It's new.
2. Word hasn't spread.
3. It's the off-season.
4. ValleyTalk has left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths.
Give it time. It will be interesting to see if it ends up following the same evolutionary path as ValleyTalk.Comment

I don't know, but the new administer of Valleytalk must not be profienct in coding, considering how long it has been down.Comment

The old VT that Royal setup has our home games with CU, SIU and G Mason on there. Along with everyones predictions on how many teams the mvc would get in and who those teams might be. Interesting reading, especially in a slow part of the off season.Marge: The plant called and said that if you don't come in tomorrow, don't bother coming in Monday.

Coding isn't the issue. The guy barely even visited there. It was like he'd put a few days into it about once a year, then forgot about it. I'm guessing he finally got completely bored with it. Combine that with what it turned into (particulary after all the mods, including yours truly, resigned), and the cost of keeping it on a dedicated server, and I could easily see him dumping it. Although, it would be nice to actually hear something if that's the case.Originally posted by Snapshot9
Or, since it's on a dedicated server, the server could be having serious issues, accounting for the downtime.Comment

Dedicated server is a waste of money unless Valleytalk had high bandwidth.Comment

Bandwidth isn't the primary issue with a message board. Server resources is (heavy database activity). That's the reason ShockerNet got shut down the night the news broke about Turgeon leaving.Originally posted by BenWSU
It's possible VT also had bandwidth issues. But I am fairly certain that it was either move to a dedicated server or continue to have issues. He then chose to start accepting donations to make the move.Comment

MSU and internet technology doesn't mix:
- Their official site pretty much sucked for a long time. When they did embark on a redesign, it took quite awhile and the interim substitute was virtually worthless.
- "Bear Nation" (the current name of the MSU board) crashes 2-3 times a year, or so it seems, and often changes formats. I think I've had to register there 3 times this year.
