Forums: the Sequel to the Sequel

Well, apparently the guy who hacked into the forum database managed to completely delete mine, so we must rebuild ours anew. Accordingly:

  • All accounts must be recreated.
  • The freefall game will be started over.
  • All RPs will continue where they left off.

On the bright side, the guy who did this is about to be cleaned dry (as opposed to dry-cleaned) of everything he’s worth in court.

Forum Trouble

Have you ever found yourself carrying a whole bunch of stuff, then you suddenly drop one of those things? You know how it goes. You go to pick up that thing and drop two more in the process; then you go to pick those two things up and you drop another two things while picking those things up…

To my knowledge, that’s basically what happened to the forums. A problem occured, then in fixing that thing, there came another problem, and now the entire coding of the forums seems to be falling down around the hosting site’s staff.

Of course, this is only an educated guess; it may just be the same problem appearing over and over again. Either way, I think I’m about to offer my expertise to them and try to fix the problem myself, ‘cause I’m tired of just sitting around waiting for somebody else to fix the problem.
