Hmm, weird. Have others seen this? I thought you could turn it off using your account settings here in the site. Is it a Tapatalk thing?

I just disabled email site-wide for now. I can look into it in more detail later.

I don't like glorifying the images of the bloody noses (Nash's or Booker's). But I was hoping somebody would do a cool drawing of the Ayton Valley-oop so I could ask to use that as a site banner.

Agreed, our current image is about Booker resting after a winning shot, the bloody noses, while reflecting the character of our guys, come from cheap shots undeserving to be on a banner. Booker is on the floor by choice, not because he was tackled.

I agree with you guys. But I do think the next additional image should go to the right of "Phx-Suns.Net" in the banner for symmetry. And more importantly, it would show our progression from the bubble to now. So far, I agree with Marty about the 0.9 Valley Oop being that image. Only problem is that it's a vertical image vs the current horizontal image which fits nicely in that squashed space.

Hi all, the site went down for several minutes today as I upgraded the software that runs it. A few details for those who are curious:

For those nerds among us who are curious, this site runs using software called PHPBB. PHPBB is based on a programming language named PHP that is installed on the web server. The web hosting for the site is done by my web service provider, a company named DreamHost. They decided to do a forced upgrade of PHP from version 7.2 to 7.4. This broke the PHPBB software because the versions were not compatible with each other.

The PHPBB software had been an older version 3.2, and I had to go update it to the latest version 3.3.3. Doing this took the site offline temporarily. I also backed up the full database of all users and their posts just to make sure I didn't lose anything. The update seems to have mostly worked, though I'm still tracking down a few small quirks. For example, the link bar in gray near the top of the page that says "Board index" doesn't properly show the bread-crumb links to the current forum such as "Suns/NBA". I'll figure it out.

If you encounter any issues using the site today after the upgrade, please let me know in this thread. Thanks!

Paul had one of those Booker falling away ending up on his back looking at the ball going in moments late last game. Dual pictures of Booker on one side, Paul on the other side in the same position with Ayton in the middle with his game winning allyoop.

I'm still convinced Informer crashed the old site to erase all evidence of his Anthony Davis takes.

I get the feeling INF is not a Suns fan but a basketball fan and hangs out at many team-specific sites.
