You know, if you keep fixing things on your own, we'll have no reason to complain. With no reason to complain, we'll have to come up with other things to do with our time.



This could mean the end of the world!



Or possibly just a really well-administered board. Take your pick.

Btw, is Goners chat still active? I can't check it here at work, and our annual Gonersapalooza Live Oscar-watch is only days away.

Edited title.

Again.

And again.

And again.

Well it was just an IRC channel that I registered, a while ago my nick expired due to lack of logging onto blitzed and i lost goners and firefly chat, I reregistered my nick and re-registered firefly but there were some people on goners i didnt know and so couldnt ask them to kindly bugger off in order to re-register the channel. The interface I set up should automatically create the channel if it doesnt exist at the time, but of course if it has never emptied it will have continued to exist til now anyway, just without a channel owner.

I'll check it out.

OK have checked it out now. B!x registered it after I lost it, so b!x has it now and it is indeed operating.

Thanks, you're a doll.

A giant crazy scary doll?

Exactly! Though if you keep building up the crazy scary part, I may never avail myself of your sofa bed.

(I bet that's your plan, isn't it? )

What?

The database broke, I have it on good authority that it's all Gojiro's fault.

Bastard. Ban him!

If I do that we have no-one to blame everything on and we have to turn on each other. It's better I keep him around.

You are a wise and munificent leader.

Was about to post in the Doctor Who thread, noticed that the spoiler tags are not working there (the existing ones) and there are potential spoilers visible. Can anything be done about it?

Spoiler tags seem to be working now. at least for me.

Sometimes when the bored goes down, the spoiler tags there were in existence get jumbled, so that you can clearly see that it was supposed to be or at one time was a spoiler, but now all the text is visible. It's like the black box goes bye, bye...

dev - help please. every other time I click to add a reply or go to another page, I get the black screen error message, over and over again. have to wait a few minutes and then try again. this morning i could not get on the board for more than an hour. is something wrong with the board or with my computer??? It seems the server is always too busy....

It's the board hun. dev's doin' his best. We all had a hard time getting in. And when I was in earlier I was stuck in limbo, because everything I clicked gave me error message. It'll get better.

PATIENCE people, much patience!

Yeah, stuff's busted, working on it, think it may be cool now, but am touching wood as I type this and am expecting it to fail any moment.

If you can persevere then I shall too.

I have patience Sil, I just wanted to know what the problem was....I can wait forever if I just know what's going on, dig?

You know, if you upload your consciousness into a new model, you won't have to worry about this pesky sleep issue.

Yeah but i like this one.

o.O I just realized that's an actual pic of you in your avi.

ROFLMAO!

Why yes, yes it is.

I think you are very appealing, there, dev. You could totally be in Supernatural.

Hey dev, I just wanted to say that the boards went down -- or at least I got that busy error -- (from my perspective) for a minute, just now. I wonder if anybody else experienced that, or if it was just me... But they came right back up. Also, it occurred to me that it seems like it's been happening pretty consistently in the mornings (Mountain Time) while I'm getting ready for work... so around nowish. Is there anything going on at this time of day that could be triggering it? Backups?

I love the avi, too.

Happy Friday!

Just happened for me, too, but came right back up.

Dev - I think you should audition for Supernatural - dress up like that avi and you will be guaranteed a part. a SEXY part, too!

Thanks for everything, you know....really. And once more, if you incur any expenses over and above what you got from the subscriptions, you have to let us know so we can chip in. I'm sure everyone would want to. So, no stiff upper lip, here...let us know if you need the support, please!!!

Happened to me as well, for about 5 minutes-ish...

Yeah, the database did the usual, so i repaired it, my usual, and everyone noticed, so their usual.

On the up side this is first time in about a day. Here's hoping.

*crosses fingers*

*touch wood*

*scratch a stay*

*turn three times*

May the Lord save and preserve us!

*crosses wings*

Hmmmm... This thread isn't really meant as a "Help, dev, something's broke!" kind of thread. It's more of a '*poke* *poke* *poke* *snicker*' kind of thread.

Just saying if there are 3 "help me" threads along with this one, this is the last thread dev should read. Unless he wants a break from all the bitchin' and whingin', in which case it's the first thread he should read.



And I personally love the bleached blond look, dev! My pointing it out was more a comment on my obliviousness than on the actual pic. Are you still blond or was that strictly a wedding thing?

Not blond at present, but it wasnt just for the wedding, I've been blond intermittently since I was 19. I get bored with my hair easily.

I miss the blue.

My Pirate's™ bassist had these wee braids for the longest time and they were dyed blue. A few months later they were green. So I said to him, "Green is good, blue is better."

The weird-color-hair-dying thing hadn't yet hit when I was first of an age to be interested. And then the army kind of frowned on it. I think I would've liked green hair. Or goth black.

Oooooooooooo Kay then.

*looks confused*

*snickers* Should I change the name back? Some people can't handle too much hugging.

*nudges the dev person*

I want points! All the cool kids have points!! *pouts* Just because I'm polite and a good speller doesn't mean I can't be on the fast track to banning!

Okay... so I'm not going mad then... this thread really does change names.

Ummmmmm .... I have no idea what you're talkin' about!

Uh huh. Okay then.

Oh, by the way, a while back erastus made a really cool picture of gossi getting poked (not THAT kind of poked, you dirty-minded people out there! ) and thrown at with a brick and a pie. I think it's near time you got one too. Although you're not a regular goner so we don't have any particular kind of ammunition for you.

Hmmm...

*ponders*

Yes I recall the picture in question, it was over at Goners if memory serves.

He used it as his avi here for a while too.

Hey, dev, any idea what's going on over at heroesfans? It's been down for me all night.

I have no idea what's up with that, I'll make sure gossi knows though.

Looks like NFSN have disabled the site... odd.

Hey, dev, remember a passing comment you made on Goners after Joss said it was a temporary no-go about us stealing the rights to Goners and doing it sock puppet theatre style? No? Well, I think you'd better check out the thread that resulted.
