Guys, have a bit of patience, two guys on a sunday afternoon moved 12 million rows from one db to another and upgraded enterprise software to a new version and changed application servers... we're doing the best job we can. Patience please.

Awww sorry. I wasn't pushing to have it done right away, or even to have it done at all, I was just curious what the plan was. You guys have done a swell job of moving everything over. Very considerate of you to do it in an afternoon so the lifers didn't go into withdrawal and shock. :)

I think we ought to do away with all titles and rankings. I think they are divisive and silly.

There used to be a page that identified cryteria for rankings. I don't see it anymore. Are the rankings redone by policy,or a casualty of the upgrade, or has someone made a desision on each account as to who gets what on an arbitrary basis?

My team (My boss and I) moved 27 TB from one DB cluster to another 3 weekends ago. :p Always good when the workings of a billion dollar a day company depend on 2 people not calling in sick :D

Don't worry about the whiners Jason. Some of us have been there, and understand :)

Again? :p
One is enough, thanks :) I see no issues with saying what I do at work, but some exec sitting in a chair 10,000 miles away may. Last I checked, I get told no secrets, but I am not taking any chances this time. :)

Sadly, not for me. Elite was sweet for a short time - back to Platinum for me.
I'm sure that the custom titles like Elite will come back when the team has time for it. They have lives outside of this place and they also had/have other things to deal with in the upgrade that are more important to the functioning of the forums for everyone. I'm quite sure they intend to bring them back. Either that or they were just yanking my chain by making me Elite a week and a half before an upgrade that would take it away. *laughs*

Seriously though, Jason, you guys all rock. Thanks once again.
