Board was down today (8/31/12)

Post by Doug »

Sorry about that! I was doing my normal moderator duties when all of a sudden... all hell broke loose.

Welp, a couple phone calls to the ISP and my main programming guru and it looks like its ok. Please let me know if you experience anything weird.

Cheers.

All is not as it seems to be!

New users are not allowed to register and I somehow lost the catchpa thing. What a pain in the.......!

Please dont post anything of value. I may be reverting to an old version of the site tomorrow.

Ok it looks like we're back to normal. Please let me know if you notice anything weird.

Are any of your avatars missing?

The Board's back, but it's a different layout. Much less interesting visually, just a list in tiny type down the left margin.

Is this the "previous version" you mentioned - perhaps a temporary fix - or should I try to get used to it?

Thanks!

Yup thats the bug I was working on. right click in the center of the screen and click refresh (or reload) page and it will go back to normal.

Annoying when your interest in motorcycles gets hijacked by the need to troubleshoot technology!
But having said that Doug, I'm glad you do it.
