Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

Did we lose the old forum?

I don't refer to the old site address, I refer to the 'old forum', which contained the days of our youth...

...yanno, for us old-heads that have been here since the early 2000's.


It's no great loss, you understand, but I'm curious if it was salvaged in the move. It was nice to look back once in a great while at some of the things we used to talk about, even if it was all locked. Personally I'll miss the old RP board, when we used to have all the wacky/serious adventures.

It might be around, but I think I'm getting too old to find stuff anymore. Remember kids, don't get old. It's not as fun as it looks.

I think Rocky might still have it locally, he took it down a while ago as it became too expensive to keep online.

I have it locally.

No. you can't have.

No. I'm not putting it back up.

Requires too many resources and is a security hazard--- it's not /SAFE/ to keep it up.

Ok, thought I would ask. I figured it was a resource hog, but I had no idea it was a security hazard (or that it was gone, until the move). I'll miss it, but not much. Thanks for clarification.

Geez, I just realized I'm pulling a CTM here, wanting to look back in the old boards. You legacy members know what I'm talkin' about.

It has more to do with how easy that forum would be to hack I think. One of the reasons for the move to this forum was that the old forum had more glitches and bugs then a 10 cent whore had on std's.

I see, if it was an old phpBB2 forum I understand, those things were magnets for hackers.
