TotallyOz Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 The programmers got ahead of themselves. We are working to revert this and things will be back to normal soon. My apologies. Quote
KhorTose Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 The programmers got ahead of themselves. We are working to revert this and things will be back to normal soon. My apologies. Okay, so we are all going back to normal, but what do I do with my boyfriend? Will all of my gay friends disown me once I am normal? I sure hope I do not have to become an evangelical convert and raise children. It is really nice of you to do this, but if it is possible, I would like to just stay myself and go gayly forward. Quote
Gaybutton Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 A lot of the functions won't work at all yet. For example, that "Mother of" thread I posted was lucky to see the light of day at all. I have no idea how it wound up appearing twice, and once with a thread locked. I can't get into my own post to edit it out. In other words, the board needs a hell of a lot of work. I don't see much here, at least not yet, that makes the old board worth bothering to upgrade. I'm a great believer in "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." It wasn't broke, but it got fixed anyhow. Now it's broke. The old board was working perfectly. So far, the results of this upgrade are not exactly impressive. Quote

They are making a backup of the old one and have not installed the new one yet. I am not sure what the fuck all this is to be honest. Quote
Gaybutton Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 I am not sure what the fuck all this is to be honest. Whatever it is, if a stereotyped American Indian asked me, "How you like-um?", my answer would be, "Stink-um." Quote
Guest fountainhall Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 I'm a great believer in "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." It wasn't broke, but it got fixed anyhow Agree 100%. What's the reason for the change, anyway? Quote
PattayaMale Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Progress sometimes has bumps. Some bigger than others Quote
Bob Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Will all of my gay friends disown me once I am normal? Ah, you presume too much, KT. We'll never be normal. Sorry. I am kinda surprised at the number of double posts so far. But I am seeing the posted photos (no "red x" here). Quote
Guest Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Progress sometimes has bumps. Some bigger than others LOL Thank goodness some are bigger than others. Being a size queen myself, I am so thankful for this. We are updating the software because this version is old and outdated. It is the same forum software just another version with updated capabilities and stronger admin features. Quote

Now that the forum seems restored, Is this the new version then? Doesn't seem any different. What changes? Quote
Gaybutton Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Is this the new version then? I have not been told, but I believe this is the old version, back in place after yesterday's disaster. Quote
Guest Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 I have not been told, but I believe this is the old version, back in place after yesterday's disaster. Now now boys. Yesterday was not a disaster. It was not even an attempted changeover. Here is what our programmer said: Actually last time when I worked on security issue I had removed write permission from almost all folders. Becuase of this forum was not able to rebuild cache so it was using default skin set. Problem is resolved now. Little snafu. No biggie. IMHO The new version is wonderful and I can't wait for it to go live. As a techie, it is very cool! Quote
Bob Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 The new version is wonderful and I can't wait for it to go live. Lol. So far, it's only merited a funeral for being rather dead! Quote

Guest fountainhall Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Problem is resolved now Still doesn't seem resolved to me. After I log in and click on the Message Board, I no longer get the page listing the various forums. I have to go a roundabout way by clicking on new posts and then working backwards from there. And then this morning, I was unable to post for a while. Something's not right. Quote

Gaybutton Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Something's not right. I think maybe that temporary replacement board is still in your cache. Try clearing your cache. If that doesn't work, try hitting the 'refresh' or 'reload' button on your browser. That should cure the problem. Quote
Guest tdperhs Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 That should cure the problem. And if that doesn't work, give your CPU a good whack with a 9 iron. That should cure ALL ITS PROBLEMS. In thirty-five years as an electronics technician and engineer. I have used that method many times. Twice it worked. Quote
Guest tdperhs Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 And remember, if the above advice works, you got it from tdperhs on Gaythailand.com. If it trashes your computer, you got it from earwig on Sawatdee-gay-Thailand.com. Quote

Guest fountainhall Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Try clearing your cache. If that doesn't work, try hitting the 'refresh' or 'reload' button on your browser Done all that and more - but still have a problem and when I try to post messages I still get frequent error messages. But I'll keep trying! Quote

I have no idea, then, what could be causing the problem. The only thing I can think of to try would be to see use of a different browser makes any difference. Quote
