main page down?

[Shano]

I was wondering if I was the only one experiencing difficulty opening the main page.

Edit: grammar.

[Tiberius]

I can't open it either.

[maanantai]

Not working at all :/

[shykid]

Not working here, either.

I need my fundies fix. I'm going to start having withdrawal symptoms.

[Lady Renae]

I texted the Boss Man. Hopefully he'll figure out what happened.

[Khaine]

While the main page seems to back up and operating there still seems to be a bug in the system.
I just tried to submit a quote and there seems to be no way in which to finalize the submission.

[Lady Renae]

I'll run a test to see if I can figure out a simple solution... otherwise we're going to have to wait for Distind.

ETA: In the test I ran, I couldn't even see the quote I was in the process of submitting, so I'd say this is absolutely something we have to wait for Distind on. I'm going to do a quick check of other features to see if anything else is affected by this.

Hey guys I was wondering, its not those fuck nuggets from love-shy is it? After all they threatend a hack and if they had someone in as someone who joined before the lockdown, they would know when the lockdown was removed as we all recieved notification from the mods???

sounds plausible, but maybe im barking up the wrong tree, what do you guys think??

[tolpuddlemartyr]

Yeah, be a real shame if the misogynist monks from love - shy killed the site. Hopefully there's a backup!

[Lady Renae]

You're absolutely barking up the wrong tree, especially considering a lockdown on the forums would have nothing to do with the mainpage whatsoever.

Anyone else accusing LS members of hacking the mainpage without evidentiary proof that they did will receive an Official Warning.

On another note, PubAd is experiencing similar problems to quote submissions in that one cannot see the quote on which they are voting. If I could, I would shut down PubAd until the problem is fixed, but since I can't do that I'd like to ask that everyone stay out of PubAd until we know it's back up and running properly.

ETA: The quotes page is also refusing to show quotes. Hopefully things will come back up over time. I'm thinking it's possible Distind is doing a code update or something, which would make the mainpage work funky for a while during the process.

[tolpuddlemartyr]

Apologies for that Lady Renae
. Whatever did happen to the main page it's still there in it's original form in the google cache here so I expect the quotes can be easily retrieved.

Also I saved a copy just in case.

[atheistcrusader]

fair enough, maybe its my cynical streak showing again. i keep telling it to go away but it wont listen

BAD CYNICAL STREAK..BAD!!!!!!

[Distind]

It looks like some database 'issues' were resolved by shooting the site in the head and leaving it for dead... I've got to install some things and check this out.

[Distind]

Well, good news, the data looks like it's there, bad news, I don't have any of the needed tools to deal with this right now.

None of them.

At all.

I had to hack something together to check the database.

Now, looking at this, it has nothing to do with the LS incident, it's a hard drive failure at a remarkably annoying time. I'll see what I can do to get this shit running again.

[Distind]

Got to love the power of threats and file replacement.

Looks like we're back up.
