You're going to have a monstrous fanfic riot on your hands.

 

Fan Fic put up a notice, as did the RPF. RPF has also been warning users about it for a month or so, now.



But yeah, I'm anticipating a riot.

 

riots, throws rotten food at ramza



Hopefully it'll get fixed faster than the Move took.

 

Here's hoping as well! I know a lot of issues will come up just because it's a lot of custom code that needed to be transferred, and that always will have some bugs. But please bear with us!

 

It's not too big of a deal, but will the longer posts be restored in the archived threads too?

There were a few threads I was going to recommend activating from the Senate archives, in a few weeks after you guys have less to work on, but I saw that most of the content from the long posts was cut.

 

Yes they will - the archives are a handy convention based on manipulating what Xenforo broadly refers to as "Nodes," rather than a legitimately distinct way of storing posts.

 

It's like Candle Jack has visited everyone on the boa

 

Just curious, but will editing the post with the original untruncated post fix the problem? That is to say, if I replaced the truncated fanfiction post with a backup from my PC, would it be truncated again or not?

 

Will he fact that my posts in fanfic have question marks now where there used to be quotations be fixed as well?

 

Well at lest we are the new forums. So when ever the rest of the stuff is figured out is fine by me.

 

So...truncated posts includes PMs as well, I assume?
Thank you anyway for restoring the boards. I missed the old boards

 

Some of my review threads, like the Journey Through the EU thread in Lit, have been effected by this . . . But I've always kind of suspected that people kind of zone out at about the 10,000 character limit anyway, at least in my threads.

Seriously, I support the decision to go ahead and get us up and running, even with this issue still unresolved. I'm just glad to be out of the temp boards right now, so I can be patient about my longer posts.

 

How can we edit an older post to have a temp fix for our fics while the coding is worked on?

Or would it be acceptable to have a link to the backup version of my fic on another site as long as it's removed once the fix is in place?

 

You'd need to get ahold of the Fan Fic managers about changing the edit time for your forum. And note that any changes you make to a truncated post will most likely be lost when the restore is done.

 

This Fan fic writer and RPer will have no part of riots. Lol!

Seriosly, I know that the staff is doing the best they can to correct the problem. I for one am just glad to be back home.

 

I'd double check with the FanFic mods, but I'm sure that's fine.

 

Will there be any kind of announcement of progress as the truncated posts are fixed? Or just one announcement if you expect them to be fixed at the same time?

 

When they are fixed they will let us know Until then I say just be happy we have the new forums up and running.

 

You'll know in two ways - 1. We'll personally put up a bunch of notices, and 2. You will hear us celebrating regardless of your geographic location.

So pretty much the same way the move ended.

 

so that means we will hear "We'sa got our posts fixed!" from across the known universe?
I will be waiting for those notices.
