Title: New Server
Post by: Borthran on April 18, 2005, 06:28:36 AM
Well, I was going to complain about the amount of times that the server randomly went down in the past.. but now its been down for days.  So I bought an account on a new host.  Some things may not be ironed out entirely yet, but I have class in less than 3 hours and I didnt sleep yet >_>.  Maybe this evening if Im not sleeping.. or if Dan happens to get on, he will know how to fix the rest of the things.
Sorry that it was down for a long time, but it came back in record time (I just bought the server last night)..  Its very different from what Im used to but it seems to be working out well.  I'll post the long story about what exactly happened later tonight.
But rest assured that we lost nothing, and there should be no more outages, pretty much ever again (because I have never seen this host be down in all my years (friend uses this host too)).

Okay. It's all good and whatnot, but what's with the layout color change? Can you guys make an option to have the old yellowish color back? Plzkthx. ;)

The yellow/orange ness of it all was VERY easy on the eyes.

The old themes seem to not be working properly; I've not got time to look at it now, but the basic thing seems to be working.

Basically, the SMF default theme is kicking in where the normal theme is not working (a fail-safe built into the BBS).

Okay.  The themes should be back and the attachments are back.

I would gladly pay for the hours of entertainment!
Just one less trip to the strip club for me.

<.<

Get a paypal acct or something. I'll be your eccentric & generous benefactor if you knight me Lord Fonzworth of Happyland, and charge me to rule the lesser proletariat mods with a draconian fist.
