UGH!! Just, UGH!!

Really? Are you talking about people going back to their own messages or the other people thing you and bete were talking about?

Hey...if the pretty nycfembbw requests it, can we get it back? :tease:

But dapperbutch asked all of the questions I had just been wondering about myself!! i just hadn't gotten around to asking them or looking onto who to ask :nixon:

No, cuz I already unrequested it and I have freckles. One day you'll understand how the universe works.

:)

I'm pretty sure hy's just trying to catch up to your post count, Gemme.

:tease:

HEY!
WHEN THE FUCK DID THIS HAPPEN???


*irate*

:innocent:

hahahahahahahahahahahha

74 hours, 3 minutes, and 46 seconds ago...

I'm plotting your demise right now. It'll be messy and you will be sad.

:praying:

It's possible that it's the effect of loading all the smileys. I just tried to load them and had no issue what-so-ever. I am using Firefox 4 Beta.

What browser are you using?

Good luck with that.

:thumbsup:

The first question is, do you hear Jimi Hendrix?

:blink:

Lady Gaga Count?
 

No, but there bright flashes of

I'm scared. Someone hold me. :dozey:

P.S. Praying won't help you, you heathen! :canadian: (and canadian!)

I was actually suggesting that -you- might want to consider praying. I mean, it's a longshot but maybe that will help deflect some of my wrath.

Is the site getting timed out?
 

Hey Kobi -

We actually have a couple of things happening right now. Yesterday, our site was down for a bit because our hosting company had a systemwide outage due to various issues.
I posted a thread about it on the front page but basically what happened was that Media Temple had an issue large enough to cause not only our site to lose service, but literally hundreds of sites.

This morning, we had a different issue arise. We hit a memory limit on our site usage which caused our operating component to shut down. This is both a good and bad thing. Good because it means that the site is growing and is evidence that more and more folks are using the site every day. Bad because it means we are going to have to upgrade our memory in order to accommodate our increase in traffic.

I'll be posting more about this issue once I speak to Linus.

Thanks!

HAHAHAHAHA!!! Jack says the same thing! (and I feel the same when she starts going on about welding/construction talk) :)

I suspect the memory issue is a side-effect of the network attack against the provider yesterday.

Heck yeah - And I saw on the wire this morning that Amazon cloud was hit as well!!

Hrmm.. be interesting to find out who was the source of this. It's a bit old school to use DDOS attacks these days to bring someone down. The last time that this kind of stuf was done was when Mafia Boy did it against a variety of sites, effectively knocking them out for 12+ hours.

ETA: I checked. Amazon's was due to their own error. Something happened to their storage in the backend.

And our provider wasn't the only one hit: http://news.google.com/news/more?pz=...l-RndOELkF-BRM

It is new but hasn't been officially announced since there are a couple of bugs we need to address before saying it's good to go. You can try it but I believe on the front page you may still see threads you've ignored.

I've been using this feature- seems to be working. Great addition- thanks!!

where do I find the 'ignore thread' button?...
thanks
nina

okay...thanks, I found it...and clicked on the ignore button thing...I still have the threads showing...do I need to log out to make it work or?...thanks

Where are you seeing the thread? Front page? In a search?

I am seeing the thread(s) on the front page
and
I did log off, came back and still see the threads

you don't have to spend time on it...I can just close my eyes :)

That's the one bug we're attempting to track down. It's a conflict between the ignore thread option and what we use to create our fancy front page. If you go to New Posts, you'll likely not see the thread at all even if it does appear on the front page.

okay...thanks...I'd like it to be off the front page since that's what I look at...
but, I can do what I already do, and not read things I don't want to read, I just find that (at the moment at least) I am getting irritated at the listings which irritate me...lucky for me I am able to get over myself! :)
