TK Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 But not for to long. Hopefully. :fingersx: This Wednesday (tentatively) we'll be going offline overnight for maintenance. This will most likely take until Thursday morning to complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 We'll take this under advisement with our lawyers before we decide our next move ..... The 12 hour or so deadline sounds reasonable, but before you know it you'll be wanting us to reduce our post count for the same time spent on here; you'll be sanctioning rookie members and wanting a rookie privilege's scale ..... this could get messy. The multi-lingual amongst our brethren are drawing up an alternative site list as we speak to strengthen our position. Just so management knows. Hail.

s0crates Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 You couldn't just say, "ES will be temporarily down for maintenance," could you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostofSparta Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 As long as we can get 2 less preseason gameday threads out of this lockout situation, I think you'll find some support for the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steady now GoS. Let's not tip our hand too early in these negotiations. We haven't even gotten the "bgobsession" mediator involved yet. Hail.

We might as well put all our Extreme Skins Posters Union (ESPU) cards on the table and see how far apart we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPCreativelab Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 man, ES is a bunch of greedy bholes. im gathering all the posters and taking them to Yuku... 5 minute maintenance windows!! Woohoo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RememberOsaka Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Hard to believe that the annual ES enema can be completed overnight. Judging by the state of affairs here lately I would have put the over/under at 10 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might as well put all our Extreme Skins Posters Union (ESPU) cards on the table and see how far apart we are. Stay strong my friend. They'll be no decertifying tonight. Agree to NOTHING! The longer we abstain and frustrate the "man", the longer the lockout continues. The longer the lockout continues, the better the chances of the ESPU luring diehard out from the underground to reclaim his rightful place leading the ES masses to all that is good and true in the B&G World. This lockout **** wouldn't of happened on his shift. No Sir. Stay strong brothers. Resist all attempts of offered "perks" from these new fangled mods management is using these days. Their sneaky. We can win this, and we'll celebrate with free beer now the stadium no longer needs it. Power to the people of the ESPU! Down with the lockout! Hail.

Symbol Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I'm going to seek legal action to put an injunction on the lockout. Oh, and I'm telling all new members to boycott the ES draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Looks like things are getting bad according to these twits. @MTHestff I've repeated this several times already. If both sides really have an equal commitment to getting a deal done,then life is good. Right now,I don't know if that's the case. Talk's cheap and we're sitting at the table ready for action." mmbr@es So what are they trying to say? We're not committed? We're at the table too,only we seem to be the only ones saying anything." teekay@estff Hi there. Info is wrong,something will happen. mmbr@es Heard that before. When,what where? jmbo@esstff 1 could look upon that stment with a particular amt of doubt and assume that some1 didn't comprehend wht ws actually stated,(not unusual for around these parts). Or one could give the benefit of dbt and simpley repeat the comment with more specifity and clarity so that ......(more at jmbo twitter htp://e.s43HLyC3p) mmbr@es That's a crock.
