Server Issues, Etc

[JimmyJump]

Hot Pockets= Frozen, fake pastry/bread (very fake) formed into like a closed pita pocket filled with some psuedo-pizza filling.

Still looks like large trousers full of stolen goods, to me...

LMAO this was a much needed and biggest laugh I have had in a long time...that this thread worked its way into a detailed description of a processed snack food!

[~kay~]

Well before the whole thing goes..props to all the admin guys and everybody working your butts off trying to fix the problems. You guys are awesome

[~kay~]

The three cheese ones are pretty amazing when your pmsing....Just so's you know. :P

[Mairead]

*still giggling at the eating a bug comment* oh and thanks for all the efforts!

[~faerie~]

[Master Solidus]

Just a quick question. Is there a problem with the reviews, too? I got an email saying that I had a new review for my story, and when I tried to look at it none of the reviews showed up. It just allowed me to post a review.

[thepast]

Ok. Just to be clear...

These are problems with the ENTIRE SITE. That means anything that starts with www.bdsmlibrary.com is going to be affected!!!!

PLEASE STOP SENDING THE ADMINS PMs!!!!!
a.) Often,we can't read them.
b.) WE ARE FIXING THE PROBLEMS AS QUICK AS WE CAN!
c.) WE KNOW THINGS ARE DOWN!!!!!
Sending us PMs does NOT help the problem! I have 31 in my inbox this morning asking about various parts of the site being down. YES, we know they are. YES, we are working to fix them... PLEASE just have patience!


I know everyone is addicted to this place (in varying degrees, of course) and we are working hard to get it back online. But we can only work as fast as we can on it... bitching, complaining, PMing, emailing, posting, etc. about the problems aren't going to get the place back to "normal" any faster. In fact, that sort of thing slows us down because we have to pass through it to get to what we need to get working on.

So for the time being...
No, we can't delete your acct. Chill. Life isn't going to collapse because you are a member here for an extra week.
No, I can't fix your sig block. If you can't fix it, I can't fix it.
No, I can't change your name (see Torq's thread in Headlines re: tags in any case).
No, I don't know why your posts aren't "taking." Could be the fluxing in the site. (see my previous comment in this forums area about backing up your posts before you post them if you are concerned about it)
No, I can't give you access right now into areas that you want access into. Trust me, I will when I can.
No, chat is NOT working. I know this. It might go up for a while, then come back down. No, I don't know when it's going to "work right," nor do I know [insert name]'s YIM/MSN handle. Whoopsy, forgot to write that down in my important black book.

We're trying to work as fast as possible. We're trying to be jovial & light-hearted about this all, because really, in the end, the site will go back up & be working in "normally" within a week--nothing to call TMZ (tabloid) over.

In the meantime... PLEASE PLEASE continue to have some patience!!!! If you REALLY can't find anything else to do, I will give you the name of a sub/Dom that you can chat with & beat/get beaten... might make you feel a bit better *laughs*

[lil ashley]

Buys lots of hot pockets - many boxes of each flavor - for delia. Drops off bottles of all varieties of headache remedies.. some chocolate bars.. Tums, a hand book that says "have patience" in every language...would give neck massages if this one could...

Thanks to you and Torq and everyone committed to keeping this site afloat!

[MitchC]

Torq, delia. Thank you to the mods and admins for all your hard work and patience. We know this isn't fun for any of you, having to fix all the server problems on the site. I for one, will just say that I look forward to the site being back up whenever you can get it working. Until then, Good Luck with fixing the problems.

Mitch

[shayna{L_D}]

delia will hot pockets help you at this point?

[GearJammer]

been there, done that, delia. Hugs coming your way. At least it's not down for over a month (that's the "been there done that" for me). You guys will get it.

^MUCH LOVE^ total agreement

[MollysMaster]

How can I change how people can contact me? Would like to add Messenger to the list but can't figure out how to.

Thanks!

[Ozme52]

Look up... the forum menu... just left of center...

User CP is your control panel for changing all your preferences, signature, avatar, etc.

[MollysMaster]

Thanks!

[caligirl{Rob}]

Why am I only given the option to "soft delete" visitor messages?
thanks

[thepast]

Absolutely only given the option to soft delete them. If you need a hard delete, please send a PM to Torq or I and we'll take a look at it. More times then not, soft deletes are messages that end up being needed to sort out conflicts, drama, and perception discrepancies. Hence, they are only soft deleted so that if needed, an admin can recover them as "evidence."

Regards,

delia

[craven]

sounds sensible to me

[caligirl{Rob}]

lol okay, no biggie just bugs me to have old messages, guess I'm anal that way

so don't take it personally anyone if it says message deleted was just trying to clean house LOL

[Trainstation]

Hi, new here, so please bear with me. On my computer at the office, no problem. However whenever I try to access this site at home, I get a warning from my virus protection software (Norton) that I am about to enter a dangerous site. It gives me the option of not entering which I take. Any suggestions.
Love the site BTW...

[Ozme52]

I get nothing of the sort from McAfee, not even their site advisor which warns of spammy email, ad or spyware, even if there are links to such sites.

This is a green site.

Heh... green.


Does Norton give a site report?

[Venom]

I'm have used Norton, too, before I went to my current anti-virus programm. Both had no problem with this site, and I never get a "cold" here...

By the way, Trainstation: you are looking at those nasty sites during work time?!

[Thorne]

I use Norton and have no problem.
