Title: Board Problems- Update!


LoobiLou - May 18, 2006 05:23 PM (GMT)
There have been lots of problems reported on server 7 these past couple of days and as a result the nice techy people over at invision headquarters are planning a large hardware upgrade (or so they tell me :unsure:) during the early hours of Saturday morning, this will last for approximately four hours so the board will be completely off line during that time...

Until then there's not much we can do but sit around dwidling out thumbs and putting up with it i'm afraid :ermm:

But after this upgrade has been done everything should be back to normal :)

*normal service will resume shortly*

What's "normal"? :unsure: ;) :lol: :lol:

buffy_fan1 - May 18, 2006 06:23 PM (GMT)
A whole 4 hours without the boards I could get withdrawl symptoms :fear: as sad as this make me I spend most of my life here.

Thanks for the update Louise :thumbsup:

Good to know petal! I've been having days of uninvited vampire-type non-access to the boards, and was :blink: on the verge of :blink: paranoia :drool:

goth willow fan - May 20, 2006 09:51 AM (GMT)
Well, whatever they did seems to have done the trick :thumbsup:

Hmm.. I get logged out everytime I go back to the main page... :ponder:

goth willow fan - May 20, 2006 09:58 AM (GMT)
Hmm... and the threads don't grey out to indicate you've read them. :ponder:

Yay! More to complain/moan about :yahoo: :thumbsup: :lol:

It may help to re-bookmark the site as the url has changed.

Question -

the fixing-up doesn't seem to have cured my problem with getting here via my ususal (and 2 days ago only) address. www.culttvboards.co.uk

what do other people find easiest? I seem to be spending ages meandering around the invisionfree index...and would rather not. :shrug:

I guess most of us always log on from the same computers......(normally home one and w**k one) so we have the page bookmarked.........with you logging on from whatevers available at the library or 'Cafe' that isnt really an option..... :ponder: Unfortunately the Culttvboards.co.uk has always been problematic......(I gave up on it ages ago :shrug: ) suprised you havnt had problems before now...... :o

:ermm: :unsure: i never notice the grey indicator before ............ kinda late to mention it ......... isn't it? :ponder:

jamiearmour - May 20, 2006 09:46 PM (GMT)
I'm still having a problem.

It seems that every time I come back here, I have to sign in again :tear:

OK, it takes all of ten seconds to do it, but that's ten seconds during which I could be sharing my all important opinions with you guys, and I know how much you value my opinions :ph43r: :lol:

goth willow fan - May 20, 2006 09:47 PM (GMT)
Everythings back to normal for me again now.







Well... as normal as things ever get :whistling:

jamiearmour - May 20, 2006 09:48 PM (GMT)
Oh well, as long everything's alright with you, that's fine then :snooty: :lol:

goth willow fan - May 20, 2006 09:50 PM (GMT)
It should be OK if you bookmark the new z7 url.

The last watcher - December 19, 2006 12:28 PM (GMT)
Is there a problem with the board at the mo.....or is it just me........ :(

I can log in....access the lounge....and I can see other people have posted on various threads......but if I try to access any thread (apart from 'Word association' for some odd reason) I can only see yesterdays posts and it hangs my internet session................


Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp :(

goth willow fan - December 19, 2006 12:34 PM (GMT)
There is something funny going on - I had to relog back into the board a while ago even though I hadn't logged out.

Now I'm back in though I haven't had any problem <--famous last words

I have been having major problems finding the site as I lost my faves!

By chance I googled today and found it first time. I hope I don't lose you again! :cry:

Maria - July 22, 2007 06:52 PM (GMT)
I keep on losing you!!

I had to go throughthe Invision site and search. It took ages! :cry:

The last watcher - April 11, 2008 02:32 PM (GMT)
Is there a server problem or something......? The board seems very slow and none of the Smilies, Banners, or icons seem to be loading. I was having the same problem on my laptop at home last night but thought it was just my crappy laptop.......but my work PC is having exactly the same problem....

little pixie - April 11, 2008 03:42 PM (GMT)
No problem with me. :unsure:

Is it the same ISP at work and home ? :shrug:

The last watcher - April 11, 2008 03:47 PM (GMT)
No its not....thats why I thought it must be the boards........Hmmmmmmm

little pixie - April 11, 2008 03:50 PM (GMT)
Odd that it`s both PCs. :blink:

Have you tried doing that dump the image cache thingy ? :ponder:

Who-de, who-de what what...........????

The only common thing I can think of is that my Laptop at home is set to dump all temp internet files/cookie at logoff.......and I cleared all of the temp internet files/cookies out from my work PC last night before I went home.......and did I say Hmmmmmmmm

Maybe I`m using the incorrect terminology. :lol:

I think I mean clear the history, which I think you did and that caused the trouble ? :unsure:

Here endeth the computer expertise. :ph43r:

Maria when I'm not using my home computer and want to find this site I just enter my user name into google. I know there must be a number Maria's listed on google whereas not so many buffy_fan1's but you could try Maria Cult TV Boards and see if that works.

I hope that helps :)

Crichton Kicks - April 12, 2008 02:51 PM (GMT)
^^ Alternatively, if it works for you Joe, she could just type your name in as well ;)
