    These may be similar to the midnight error bugs. Or completely different. I have no idea. But this PM problem is getting ridiculous, and I?m going to try pushing the Big Red Button. Strap yourself in. This may do absolutely nothing, this may cause a bunch of strange errors, or it may cause a catastrophic loss of pressure that will send all of us tumbling towards the Pacific Ocean at a bazillion miles an hour (in round numbers).

    If this doesn't work, I'll press the bigger, redder button. :)


    The purpose of this thread is long since served.

    Thanks for the warning. I can now complain about errors before they happen.

    Not the big red button, Gandolf the Green [face_shocked]


    EDIT 1 and 2: For the love of all that is good, let me be able to do faces properly.

    Uhhh, I mean...IGN has a new bug that wont let my faces work properly.

    You mean the big red button. The button that could kill us all :eek:

    Nooooooo not that any thing but that. But really IGN needs to get there act together here. [face_plain]

    Well, I just hit the "Rerun Daily Jobs" and the "Application Reset" switches. This will either A) have no effect, B) erase everything on the boards, C) cause a lot of small scale errors and resolve the problem, D) cause a lot of small scale errors and not resolve the problem, E) solve the problem and not cause small scale errors, F) cause large scale errors that disappear within a few hours, and solve the problem in such a way that no one notices because of all the other errors happening, G) cause the boards to enter ?Hyper Sith Mode? and spread out over the Internet, destroying all that they encounter?

    You just pressed a button that's going to erase the boards?

    I'm going to be optimistic and say that things seem to be running slightly faster right now.

    Edit:
    Hmm, I'm not too sure about that anymore. :(

    I'll be pessimistic, so I won't screw everything up. We're all gonna die!

    I was just about to say that. Things are moving pretty quick for me right now. Unfortunately, the PM's are still unreachable. I'm pretty sure that the PM's are in a completely different database than everything else, possibly on a different server entirely.

    Don't worry things will work out.

    Well, its all slow for me.

    But thats because I'm at work, and despite having a great internet connection, the JC hasnt run fast for nearing a year now.

    It takes me up to 2 mins to load a page (depending on how much writing and how many posts there are) [face_plain]

    The boards seem a little faster as of now ... but I bet that's just wishful thinking on my part. It's still slow on a 56k modem.

    But I vote for "Hyper Sith Mode" :p

    Yes, they are. Resetting the boards seems to have sped things up. Go figure.

    Server Misconfiguration, you got a lot of guts showing your face around, after what you pulled.

    That button can do anything it wants, including starting WWIII for all I care. As long as I get my PMs back. :p

    Ah, okay then. My connection speed tends to fluctuate ... sometimes it can take me 3 minutes to load the JCC, sometimes it will be half a minute. So I can't really tell. *shrug* :)

    R&S fan?

    "ANNOUNCER: Oh, how long can trusty Cadet Stimpy hold out? How can he possibly resist the diabolical urge to push the button that could erase his very existence? Will his tortured mind give in to its uncontrollable desires? Can he resist the temptation to push the button that, even now, beckons him even closer? Will he succumb to the maddening urge to eradicate history? At the MERE...PUSH...of a SINGLE...BUTTON! The beeyootiful SHINY button! The jolly CANDY-LIKE button! Will he hold out, folks? CAN he hold out?"

    I'm up for anything if it fixes the PM problem I've been encountering today.
