Paid Members nfc90210 Posted July 11, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted July 11, 2013 (edited) DVDVR are having some issues. I used to go there a lot in years past and still wander over there on occasion. Though nowadays my visits are infrequent. Still, I would be sad to see the place disappear from the web.  Judging by the message of their front page it seems that though they are down they aren't out and will rise again.  http://www.deathvalleydriver.com/  DEATH VALLEY DRIVER VIDEO REVIEW WEBSITE GOES HERE~!    Hi There    Yes - nothing else but this page is working. It has been nothing but a comedy of errors. We aren't dead. We are stubborn so we are keeping this most unlikely party going (as long continue to ignore how long I have known some of you fuckers now).    There have been a lot of expenses paid out in a short period of time so if anyone is feeling frisky and wants to throw some shine our way (is that what the kids say? shine? I have no idea. I am old and white) find me the way you have already been stalking me (Facebook, Twitter (@philrippa - shockingly creative I know), E-mail) and I can shoot you a paypal account. We will reward folks with something. What? I have no idea. It won't be porn. Don't get your hopes up. And if you don't - that's cool. We rarely ask since it kinda makes our skin crawl but times are a changing...    Long story short. Apparently old host couldn't handle the traffic the site/board generated. We have switched to a new host company and have upgraded the type of server we are using (VPS for those who are nerdy and really really want to know.) The process of moving has been a fiasco mainly since old host company is... not the easiest to work with. However - these changes should make it so that the constant downtime is no more. Plus we are trying to build in some flexibility in case we need to expand again.    In regards to the actual main site - everything is currently missing because it might have been deleted for reasons I can't explain by our exes (or the possibility exists that we broke our own website. Are you really surprised by this idea?). I have a lot of stuff spread across countless computers and flash drives. I am just trying to avoid that headache so we are waiting to see if the Anna Benson of web hosts can find our stuff.   In regards to the board - we appear to have all the old posts. We just have to purchase an actual new board to house everything. So the possibility that we will start fresh exists. Right now our goal is to just get everything up and running since I can assure you Dean and I are tired of dealing with it.  And, yes I am getting a kick out of the fact that my Norton's keeps trying to block the site despite there being no content on it whatsoever. Stupid Technology.    I will posts updates when I have them or the board will just start working. Who the fuck knows? - Rippa Edited July 11, 2013 by nfc90210 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted July 12, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted July 12, 2013 I've been listening to some old radio shows with Wade Keller and Dave Meltzer all the way back from 1992. I almost fainted at one bit of news. When Hogan was trying to break Hollywood there were plans in the works to have Hogan and George Foreman do a Lethal Weapon style buddy cop TV series. Which I can only assume got shelved when the Baywatch people got on board and decided to do Thunder In Paradise instead. Â WHY WASNT THIS MADE???!!!

Paid Members nfc90210 Posted July 12, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted July 12, 2013 I've registered a new DVDVR account (the board has been resurrected and like in 2005 everyone has to register again) but for some reason the validation e-mail won't come through. Tis vexing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Butternut Squash Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Yeah she's great. She's the first interview person in years that has some warmth and isn't just a disposable empty vessel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted July 12, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted July 12, 2013 I don't watch much NXT so I don't know for sure, but is this her doing the interview with Emma:- Â http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kco34l06YcA Â She's really funny in that.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted July 12, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted July 12, 2013 (edited) She's got personality in abundance. Which is hard for women in wrestling, because 9 times out of 10 they are either told to be complete thickos, are complete thickos or think they know more than they do and come across as false. Renee Young doesn't come across as patronizing, over the top or ill-informed ever. Even the men come across as a complete annoying prats a lot of the times. She is so good at her job, though. She's awesome. Â Look at her shooting the shit with Matt Striker. She's really good. She even drops a bit of info to tell us she's actually a wrestling fan and not there because WWE is on TV. Like so many do. Â Emma is amazing as well. If she isn't on the roster soon, somethings up. That dance looks like a money spinner. Especially if they give her a catchy theme.
