I'm trying a few things out right now. Please post if you get a database error (hopefully you will not).

thanks.

Zimphire · Feb 22, 2003, 09:01 PM

Haven't so far.

Cipher13 · Feb 23, 2003, 01:14 AM

About 6-7 hours ago, I got nothing BUT DB errors. Now, all is fine so far.

Mac Zealot · Feb 23, 2003, 01:32 AM

Same here. Kudos to whoever did the work while I was taking a nice long nap!

Now let's hope it lasts!

Please post if you get a database error

/me looks up

Sealobo · Feb 23, 2003, 09:49 AM

Just now.

Zimphire · Feb 23, 2003, 10:34 AM

I haven't had one since you posted this.

still error free, though yesterday the boards were slow to fulfill page requests.

euphras · Feb 23, 2003, 02:44 PM

Since i logged in at about 18.00 GMT no errors so far

xyber233 · Feb 23, 2003, 03:02 PM

Error free so far...

Same here, but I usually get most errors in the afternoon when the americans wake up

Lerkfish · Feb 24, 2003, 03:08 PM

errors occurring today...several times not being able to post, though without an error screen.

and, even though I'ver replied in a thread, and I'm the last post, it still shows boots as the last poster in the forum list, even after refreshing.

Lerkfish · Feb 24, 2003, 03:19 PM

oddly enough, just making one more post seemed to fix it.

SimeyTheLimey · Feb 24, 2003, 04:53 PM

I just got my first error message since the fix. The server has been getting increasingly sluggish as well.

gorgonzola · Feb 24, 2003, 11:52 PM

Strange that some people are reporting slower load times...the server load is quite low, and I personally get very fast load times.

I suppose it's still a big improvement from the forum errors, which rendered the forums entirely unusable at times. I'll look into ways to possibly speed up some things, though.

OwlBoy · Feb 25, 2003, 12:12 PM

No errors, slow load times though, ut they just got better, seems they come and go every few minutes? That would be silly but I dunno.

boots · Feb 25, 2003, 12:17 PM

Just had the error message. It was a little different this time: MySQL server.....stuff was at the top.

I'll second the speed issue... really evident when searching. It crawls.

Mastrap · Feb 25, 2003, 03:10 PM

Very slow this afternoon (GMT+1) Unable to post several times. What Lerk said.

jcadam · Feb 26, 2003, 01:09 AM

I'd like to point out that my post count is stuck at 717 and refuses to budge.

gorgonzola · Feb 26, 2003, 01:40 AM

That's not a bug. Lounge posts don't count toward post counts for some time. We're conducting an experiment.

But post counts don't matter, so no one will notice, right?

If you're shallow and vain like me, you would.
I'll probably cry myself to sleep now, thinking of all the 'lost' posts I've made to the lounge over the last several days.
