I was around the site 40 minutes this morning (UK time). I only got into one thread...

While in there I tried four times to post something, each time went boom.

This is typical of early morning access.

We've tried yet another solution to resolving this problem around noon EST.  According to our database logs there haven't been any recorded errors, so if anyone notices them today or in the near future please post here or contact me privately.  Be sure to include the time you tried to make your post

Then that may be part of the problem, because obviously its been an error-fest around here for quite some time.

 

Forum went boom 2:09 pm Est. Trying to reply in my Penthouse thread.

 

More booms than a Hanoi brothel

No, we've seen all of the previous errors.  My comment was in regards to errors since we made the database change at noon EST.  We do see your error, for example, in our logs.  Luckily, it seems like only you and one other person have experienced problems at 2:08-2:11 PM.  If we've reduced errors to just 2 every 2 hours, then at least we're getting somewhere

EDIT: Btw, change your avatar  I don't like animated GIF's and it shouldn't even be possible to upload one.  I'd be curious as to how you did it (did some Stardockian do it for you )

It is definitely better today than yesterday. My verbal diarrhea poured right onto the site today no problems...

Nope, just a little trickery, but I'll make you a deal, get Master skin uploads working and I'll change it to a pink polka dot [e digicons]:karma:[/e]

Unfortunately WinCustomize is outside of my control  You know, I could just disable your avatar entirely

I've noticed that too. Animated gifs are the work of the devil.

Specific threads have been reduced to a crawl [loading-wise] when inundated with animations.

Most are somewhere between useless and just plain childish.

As with all things.....in moderation is fine.

OK, that make sense.

But, I'm on another forum where most everyone has an animated gif avatar and animated signatures with less posts per page and they run with no problems what so ever.

Don't cut the arm off because of an infected finger. FIX THE FINGER.

Well, when you can't complain about boom - hijack something.

I still haven't had a boom since my last post. Someone must have done something right.

No, since my last post in this thread. I have made several replies in other threads since then, and none have gone boom.
