forum crashed etc

Hey Dudes, sorry but we've been having lots of problems on the site lately but they weren't affecting the forum. Yesterday I had to reinstall the entire forum software and disable a lot of the plugins and modifications, which is why a bunch of stuff is gone for now (like the sweater pattern background and the right sidebar). but hopefully things are working ok. i'm hiring someone to fix stuff today. hope things will get better. i guess it was some far reaching virus or something.

No worries, life goes on. In the meantime, I'll slack off and drink beer...and then slack off some more and go bowling.

Man, nothing is fucked here.

Well actually I did notice that the new/unread posts section is absent.

Did someone mention beer?

meekon5 · May 28, 2015, 10:48:09 AM

Oh and I'm now using:

http://dudeism.com/smf/index.php?action=recent

to get recent posts because that's the only way I read the forum.

That works.
The recent posts used to show up at the bottom of the main page for me.

Yes but those were all modules and settings the Forumdude had to turn off to reclaim the forum again.

But... it was my favourite way to interact with dudes on this forum.

Hey forumdude... any chance getting that back? It's what separated this forum from many others...

I think Oliver is in mid crisis at the moment.

As soon as he can re-claim the bits I'm sure he will.

Undoubtedly slacking.

Yes, forumdude is awesome. Thanks man... I really missed the recent posts stuff at the bottom, so I'll be back more often to annoy everyone.
