Forum Restored!

I keep getting a 500 server error. Took 6 tries to get the site to load. Even after I dumped my memory, cleared the cache and all the normal stuff. Once in taking forever to get a thread to load.

Had that problem yesterday. Occasionally balky today.

Couple of issues right now, not anything we can do on our end as users. (except of course defeat the MCP)

I was in touch with Chris yesterday, they're likely still working on things. If it doesn't improve in another day or so, I'll contact him again.
 
Don't know about your end guys but here the lag time on the forum is really bad at the moment (almost 30 seconds). And it's not my connection, there's no lag with any other site.

It's not you, it's the site. I've got a couple emails in to Rochen but no response yet unfortunately
 
Now the sites kicking me off every few seconds while typing and/or asking me to log back in (Invalid server response.) Every day is a new adventure it seems :rolleyes:.

Until I'm able to make an announcement here on this thread stating that Rochen has responded and is working on the board, you can take it as a given that things like that^^ will continue to happen, unfortunately.
 
Any news on why the forum is going down for long periods then dropping out again? At the moment it seems I can (usually) get in for a while in the mornings (Sydney time) but then drops off again in the afternoon.
 
Well now, this is just getting ridiculous! Sometimes I can log in, sometimes I can't. For what it's worth though gentlemen, if this is actually the last days of WAB? It's been both a pleasure and an honor.

Those of you who are interested? I would suggest you sign into the the WAB Facebook page as last gasp option.

Regarding the log in/out problem, an interesting thing is that I’m encountering exactly the same problem in another forum I frequent???:confused:

Hacking?
 
I fear we are on our own. The forum is currently unmoderated and there are no contact options available for ROCHEN for the likes of us. Last days? That depends on how often and how well we post. I plan to post for as long as I can.'

As for pleasure and honour? You're nothing more than a bunch of chew toys and I will share a scotch with the lot of you bellycrawlers.

Same here Colonel (drinks wise). As for the mod issue? I assume trying to contact AR or TH via Facebook won't help since I believe one of them was the one with Rochen's contact details?
 

My first thought!
Another oddity was, that for a small forum that maybe received 15-20 visits a day, was suddenly visited by up to 100 members looking in a day.
Not posting, just there!!!:rolleyes:
Well at least WAB is up and running. We'll see for how long.

I'll bring a jug of Irish, if that's ok?:smile:
 
Gents, I've just spoken with Chris at Rochen and a serious effort is going to be made in the next week or two to overhaul the WAB, increase available resources, update the software and also make some improvements.

Simply put, we're going to breathe new life into the WAB with the aim of increasing traffic.

Once we've got the WAB shiny and new again, if you know of anyone that would enjoy participating here, by all means send them our link.

If you have ideas or suggestions for improvements, features etc that you think would enhance the WAB's usability/appeal, please post them here in this thread.

If you're able to contact him, please do, he's still a full member and staff emeritus of the board.
