I always thought arb was roughly 25%, 50%, 75% of free agency prices. Maybe I just made that up, though. -
If you're a T-Mo customer, log into the Tuesdays app and redeem your free MLB.tv subscription!
-
That's because there are three instances of the editor: large, medium, small. If you flip your phone sideways, it toggles the editor from small to medium.
-
Yeah. I really had to band-aid and bubble gum solution that one. I absolutely cannot figure out why some of us are being delivered the icon set from the staging site while others are receiving it from production NSBB. Anyway, I patch-worked it together and will address it properly down the road.
-
Let me fix that.
-
Yep, stupid thing is still not working. Back to the drawing board on that, gonna have to look at server logs at some point and find out what isn't running because there are a bunch of niggling little errors that don't make sense. Added you to the group manually.
-
I flipped the setting, removed the post quota, and made the promotion based entirely on when the user joined. Curious to see if that breaks whatever bottleneck is preventing it from working.
-
That's exactly how it works. You add the quote then scroll to the next post you want to quote and do the same. When you scroll down to the editor at the bottom of the page, it has both posts quoted and you can reply from there.
-
Just until I figure out why the automated promotion system isn't working. What the system should be doing is taking everyone who joined 2+ years ago and has 10,000 posts and promoting them into a new group with more visibility. What the system is not currently doing is what I described above.
-
The fix I'm envisioning is creating a font toggle in everyone's user profile, I just need to think it through in my head a bit and then figure out how to best implement it.
-
The more I think about this, I might be able to implement a kind of kooky fix relatively soon. I have two major site launches in the next week (non-baseball stuff) so if you're willing to wait a week or so, I'll investigate this more thoroughly, just shoot me a reminder next Tuesday or so.
-
That theme simply won't function for huge swaths of the site, there's no underlying code supporting our custom sections and methodology we use to pay our writers.
-
Sorry, that theme was enabled and I noticed it a few minutes ago while making other theme changes. If enough people dislike this font, we can work on using an alternative, though it'll be awhile until I get to that sort of thing.
-
Fixed!
-
You've all been added to the old timey group.
-
It's coming, there was an error while trying to install it, part of a larger API problem that needs to be addressed.
-
Merged into the Cubs forum for now. We may bring that forum back, I just wanted to tidy up a bit for the time being while I wrap my head around everything else.
-
Done!
-
Could you shoot me links for those and I'll get that forum back up and running? Thanks!
-
This may have been accidentally merged into another forum. Everything got chaotic for awhile there and every forum was duplicated. I may have merged both event forums by mistake. We can absolutely bring this forum back but will need to find some of the old threads and put them back into it.
-
Here are my personal notification settings. If you go to Mentions & My Content section, I have reactions notifications turned off entirely. They're super annoying. I have all email notifications disabled, I also find those annoying. https://northsidebaseball.com/notifications/options/
-
This problem has been nagging at me for months now. It's on the list of things to fix, I just never get around to it. Hopefully early in the season I'll be able to properly address it.
-
I can't really say why publicly but for the time being, this needs to stay this way but it does not need to be this way after a few weeks.

Exploring All the New Features of North Side Baseball
Brock Beauchamp posted an article in North Side Baseball
First, the forums. All posts from 2006 onward should now be accessible, though quite a bit of rearranging has been done to clean up redundant forums that were mostly idle. There will continue to be fine-tuning of this stuff but some consolidation needed to be done, particularly after merging the 2006-2015 forums with the 2016-present forums. But there are a ton of new features in the forums. You can check out the Activity Stream, which is a customizable version of the old active topics page. There are additional reactions and in the coming days, you’ll see achievements and ranks added to your profile pages. Should you so desire, you can customize your profile page quite a bit, as well. There is a really useful follow function on the site. You can follow specific content, types of content, and individual users. We also have a new ignore function and other smaller functions that allow you to better tailor your site experience to your liking. Currently, there is an icon issue that is affecting many users. If you’re seeing a bunch of empty squares around your page, that’s an error. I’m working to resolve it. It makes navigating the site a lot more difficult and I apologize for that. And, course, there is the new front page news section, headlined by Matt Trueblood but we have many more writers coming on board in the near future. In the next week or two, advertising will return to the site and along with it, Cubs video analysis. Interested in trying your own hand at writing about the Cubs? I encourage you to take a look at the new user blogs section, where you can write longer-form pieces that will reach hundreds of Cubs fans every day. It’s very easy to use and a great way to exercise your writing chops. In the coming weeks, here are some additional features coming our way: Active & 40-man rosters, updated daily Top prospect rankings with stats updated daily A free agent and trade rumors section 2023 Cubs draft tracker Something that will really help us out is social media follows and likes. If you’re a Facebook user, like our page. If you’re a Twitter person, here’s the NSBB account. As always, if you have questions, concerns, or suggestions, feel free to share them! This is a work in progress and it will take some time to sort out some of the smaller issues and tailor the new system to this particular community.
