No, not that I'm aware of. I just checked, and yours is still showing. Are you unable to see it?

as it relates to fund raising and Penn State;
We steal a page out of Pokemon go's playbook and go hide 50 some odd antiques (one for each acknowledged victim or settlement paid out), of varying degrees of value, from the 70's, 80's,90's, 00's so that each decade of obscenity is covered and then run a massive multi player scavenger hunt for them.
Donors could contribute items to be hidden and we charge a fee to play. Finders keepers on the items.
Donate 90% of the net profit to appropriate child welfare/anti sex abuse charities.
Online market the [Mark May] out of it.

Well.. yes, I am an old fucker... but thanks to RK I don't need glasses.. yet...
but I don't see what Clarity's pic shows... I do not see 2015 or 2016 on ANYONE ??? on my Mac
I'll look on other machines
Same Mac so I looked on Chrome and Firefox -- same.. no 2015 and 2016
Different box.. a PC with Windows 7.. same.. no 2015 nor 2016 banners appear
Ahhhh.. the culprit is... Browsing Preferences/style - Day Game; Night Game too...
see @Jaxbuck us blind old fuckers can still find acorns

Thanks NJ, I had that same issue. Switched pref from "Day Game" to "One Style to Rule Them All" and the missing banners appear! Thanks for doing the heavy lifting!

Sounds like we have an issue with children styles not being under the proper parent, I'll sort this out as part of the move process.
Thanks, good eyes!

Donations that have come in from this thread have allowed me to move forward with a number of things. We have a full copy of BP up and running on Amazon (AWS) for testing/bug squashing purposes, and we've moved NS there as well even for the 'old'/LIVE box. There may be some issues reaching the site (@JCOSU86 has suffered some already) while this change propagates across the web, but they should be short lived.
Once all is golden over there, I'll set a target day and we can expect to be down for a few hours. It's then that we'll copy the live DB over, and I'll get to work updating all of our software (Xenforo, Elasticsearch, all of our add-ons and mods, and so on) and addressing a relatively short "to do" list that has built up since last season (game banners, optional ads for donors, etc.). Really shouldn't take *too* long, and right now I'd guess this would happen in August (though I may move faster, we'll see if my other BP (the pressure type) cooperates).
We are going to be moving to https, I believe. Won't impact your bookmarks as we'll just have http resolve to https. This, combined with the option to use two-factor authentication should mean that we've taken all the reasonable steps to secure your accounts. We haven't had any problems with that, but there's really no downside to being proactive.
Annoyingly, we are not going to be able to support IPv6 on AWS. Why Amazon is dragging their feet on that front is a complete mystery to me. While we have a pretty good number of people who (likely unknowingly) are connecting to the site via v6, it's unlikely to the point of absurdity that dropping that support (until Amazon comes around) will cause anyone any connection problems. Those few who ride IPv6 certainly have the old and still ubiquitous IPv4 to fall back upon.
I want to thank, profusely, the brand new donors. As well as, of course, those who have done so before. My goal has always been smaller amounts from a larger number of people, but it really makes me happy that BP is still worth going to that length for the lot of you.

Just for the record, I'll double my donation if you can make whatever keeps @JCOSU86 away a permanent "problem".....using that word loosely.

Do what needs to be done to keep this the best Buckeye site on the planet. There's a reason that I don't go to other sites, unless they are linked from here. If you needed to even make it a pay site for a few bucks a year, I'd be on board with that. Just keep it low for us non-elitist pricks, eh?
