index.php was missing, I don't know why. I plopped one in from the latest build of SMF and that seems to be letting the thing at least run. Further information as it is discovered.

That error you see up there is bitching about something on Sharkey's WordPress, which the forum is kind of awkwardly shoved into a directory under. That is kind of weird and probably relevant.

That was a weird hour or so. Like the scene in Snow Crash where Hiro goes into the bowels of the internet only with more Christmas lists and Stalin flash applets.

If that wasn't what the bowels of the internet were like in Snow Crash then that book is far less representative than I was led to believe.

Who Karma'd Display broke just as I earned what is probably my first real "Doom is reaaaaaaaaaally mean" de-karma. Robot Hooooouse!

Hey while I'm here, you should have the most popular forums on top(Gaming) and you should rename one of the Real X forums and probably "High Context Discourse" because that sounds more like the SERIOUS POLITICS FORUMS than Real World does.

God those Talking Timers are probably laughing it up so hard at us right now

We look like a bunch of assholes now!

Our freaking forum doesn't even work!!

WHO IS RESPONSIBLEEE

Brentai · « **Reply #7 on:** May 27, 2010, 06:36:42 PM »

There's a galactic fuckton of errors having to do with uploaded avatars in the log, from close to the time of the crash. I'm going to err on the side of caution and disable them for the time being, seeing as how it's pretty damn likely there's a potential exploit in that function and I can name at least one guy who likes to occasionally wander back here and fuck with us using stupid PHP tricks.

PS: Ditto for image attachments. A couple of the guys here can get you some image hosting if need be, and if gently prodded I might actually get off my ass and whip up little personal Photobucket thing I keep threatening to make.

I think most of TT tends to forget this place exists. I didn't even know it existed until like three months ago.

Also, quoting isn't working for me right now, I've noticed.

Hah! As if! They hang on our every word with bated breath mis(ter??), meekly awaiting the next fleeting moment they may bask in our latest breed of internet cool

Okay, there's a bunch of maintenance buttons on this admin panel that I can basically faceroll over and see if that fixes anything. If anybody's against this, speak in the next five minutes or so or forever shut your fucking mouth.

Mothra · « **Reply #12 on:** May 27, 2010, 07:03:53 PM »

where doing this

I'd like to see forumsplosions more along the lines of graphics cards overheating during TF2. Where it puts the wrong textures on surfaces, so you have guns made out of fence and forts made out of Heavyface.

Ted Belmont · « **Reply #14 on:** May 27, 2010, 07:19:13 PM »

All the options for avatar changing are gone now, not just uploading.

Brentai · « **Reply #15 on:** May 27, 2010, 07:26:23 PM »

Sorry 'bout that. Try now.

Maintenance options did pretty much nothing. I kind of want to try reinstalling SMF because there are a few things in these files that disturb me. Alternately if you guys want to take a walk on the wild side there's a release candidate of 2.0 out...

Mothra · « **Reply #16 on:** May 27, 2010, 07:36:48 PM »

Oh hell yes

With all those features?!

HELL yes.

Or Hello Kitty walls.

I think this is a much more appropriate glitch for the occasion.

Brentai · « **Reply #19 on:** May 27, 2010, 09:17:30 PM »

Well, it's broken in a fuckload of ways it wasn't before, but at least you can load the damned thing. I had to hack into a server control panel that I didn't even know existed to fix the crap that the upgrader pulled.

I was going to use the bulk of my three-day weekend to look at places to cock-nippling live but I guess I can shove that aside for a bit in order to track down all the spillions of intsy little bugs that have spawned from the black flaming depths of Hell now.
