I believe that might be caused by something on your end.

I've gotten "server busy" message once few months ago. Other than the "security token missing" message that comes every now and then, the forum is working fine for me.

EDIT: Oh nuggets. 5min after posting this, the forum went down for abit.

same thing here.

also getting "database error" page but so far only after hitting 'submit reply' - when i go back to the thread i was replying to though my reply is there, i just don't get redirected back there from the reply page and end up in errorland.

also getting off-and-on 'page not found' and other similar when clicking on links to various threads or forums or usercp - got one the first two times i tried to get into this one to see if anybody else was having troubles.

^ ^ ^

As above.

[edit]

It happened to me on this post!

Being informed that Dowly and Hunter are patrolling the No Fly Zone does not inspire me with confidence!

Aside from the database down for repair message Subsim has been behaving for me, perhaps because I'm using Neals favourite browser...

Mostly fixed now, I think I'm getting Database errors when posting

There are two threads I had to pull the plug on and start sequels.

Onkel Neal · 02-04-10, 06:34 PM

Yes, for about 45 minutes.

Note to all: we are discussing options, including once again, upgrading to a new server. Bear with me, thanks for your patience.

donate to subsim before it's gone.

Onkel Neal · 02-04-10, 08:27 PM

Lol, no, it's not going anywhere, and I can afford this because of the fundraiser we had in Dec. Just wanted to keep you guys abreast of the situation.

It's not the $$ that bugs me, it's the time that it will take to get this done.

Neal, if you ever run out of $$, here's an idea. Take your ordinary Battle Mug, draw a dot somewhere on it. Take picture of the dot and put it for sale to eBay with a title "Coffee cup with a jesus on it!!!".

And to save you from asking:

1. Yes, I am available to be hired as your financial advisor
2. Yes, 70% of the income sounds good.

Torp III · 02-04-10, 09:15 PM

Here I thought Neal was just getting us to use to for SHV server down time!!!

Reece · 02-04-10, 11:30 PM

Found the thread, thought it vanished!! Well hopefully all will be fixed soon with minimal cost,

although the tech's hour rate is like wow!!

would be happy if my wages were even half that!!

Onkel Neal · 02-05-10, 12:15 AM

Yeah, me too. Supply and demand, those guys are in short supply and high demand. Go to the library and get a Linux for Dummies book and in a few years I may be hiring you
