Title: What happened...
Post by: The SaiNt on 2001-11-21 13:12:00
Here's what happened in the last few hours.
Arcticnetwork.net's server got hacked and all the html got erased.
I've tried my best to reupload the forums.
I did everything in a rush, I hope everything is working fine.
If there are any problems, don't hesitate to post them here so I can look into them.

Heh, I was like "What _now_?" when I got the 404 from Arcticnetwork's server.

Seems to be working pretty nicely, but what's with the clock? It's not on GMT, I'm sure of that.

Jari: Dunno if it's changed, but I think it's on GMT now...

New design is nice! Still liked the old (3dstream) design but this is an improvement on the previous nextff design. Sweet.

Yep, it's fixed now. It was some 12 hours off before.

Glad you guys are pretty much happy.

BTW, you guys do know what the little arrow next to "last post by" is for right?

There might be a few things what you guys might notice too.
For example, when you reply to a topic, the topic review doesn't increase the topic views anymore. And when you're forwarded to the topic after you've replied, it doesn't increase the topic view count anymore.

For those of you that are familiar with NextFF's forums, pretty much everything there is here.

I like! Fairly good. If we're allowed to submit wish-lists then one thing that I find moderately annoying:

When you post a reply, the topic is shown in a frame below the box to type a reply into. This is good. However, it always displays the first page of the topic - it'd be much nicer if it displayed the last (most recent) posts. (You can get to them, but it means manually clicking & scrolling there at the moment).

Also, when you post a reply, does it take you back to the last page of the topic (ie. where your reply is actually going to be put?). Last time I tried it again takes you to the first page.

Neither of these is life threatening, but if you find yourself with some free time... ^_^

There's been so many things happening lately I was just like "oh, well-it'll pop up sooner or later!"  Good to see there's a (semi?) permanant address now...

Wish list?  I'd like to see the old ending "tag" line for the board up again-do you remember it?

*edit*
Oh, yeah-and given Fice's current post levels and rate, maybe we should give him a "Ficedula Express Posting Button".  He'll be hitting 2000 before I hit the century mark...  :grin:

What? You mean that button marked "Post Reply" isn't my express posting button?  :???:

:grin:
Title: What happened...
Post by: Sephiroth 3D on 2001-11-22 10:57:00
Someone should make a button that says that, give it to Saint, and he puts in on instead of "Post Reply". That would be hilarious!

Heh, we do need better images for the buttons.

And I'm quite happy about my post count ... I don't really spam, it's all valid comments. I just spend faaaar too much time on the 'net, especially since I'm used to always-on connections :wink:

crap!  forgot to log in...

Fice:  happy is as you should be.  There was nothing but unadulterated jealousy in my post...hey-that's something else we need-green smilies for jealousy.

(Since I'm feeling in a good mood, I've fixed it for you :wink: -Ficedula )

odd how i dont know if that was directed at me or joey. Seriously, I am the anti-spam.

Seph3d-> im just not used to editing my posts. bad habit, i guess.

note: Further analysis has led me to believe that that comment was not directed at me.

Do we mind...? Well, we've been threatening to ban you, and you attract far more flames than anyone else. Some people might take that as a subtle hint.

Here's another: try making jokes that are funny.

Any objections? I'm not too bothered, but unless someone wants it open I guess I can close it.

I OBJECT!!!! Wait close it, theres not much point going into another Joey bash thread, again.

Post by: ficedula on 2001-11-23 22:41:00
K, I'll close it tomorrow morning unless some really deep philosophical discussion springs up.

That's not a cue for someone to start one, BTW...

Ok, I'll stop cracking jokes.  Anyways, I'll also stop degrading others in the board. :wink:
