As some of you may well know, the forums are somewhat prone to not being available at random and sometimes prolonged moments ever since December. Yesterday comes to mind, it being unavailable from midday to midnight


Well I contacted the host of our forums, and he said quite promptly and nicely that they're just switching over to a newer faster service, and any such problems should be over by the end of this month. So just hang in there.


'course if we get this crazy [CENSORED] happening in March, i'm pulling my finger out faster than an erection in a viagra testing facility held down to the side of the thigh by duct tape, but otherwise : hang in there, forums will still get a little bollocksed through the next two weeks, but after that it's clear sailing.

Ahem.

Yes, the forums have been down for 3-4 days haven't they? Blimey.


Turns out theres a few booboo's with the forum (nowt to do with me, honest) and our host is still dabbling about with a few bits and bobs as they resolve their issues. Rest assured, we're on top of things and all this nonsense will be but a distant memory in due time.

FYI I dont even have VB installed anymore... I use PHP and C++ now, thank you very much. You think I could have made that Flashbang plugin under VB's restraints?

Now he is just like, mega Enesce (even if he hates Macs).

a-4-year-old doesn't even need a computer to access the forums. His left testicle automatically refreshes this page every .3 seconds and projects it via microscopic semen particles into his retina directly. He replies by using his armhairs as a keyboard.
