    Just wondering. BT's been offline for most of the day so far, just came back up...

    It really becomes a problem when all the sites I visit to pass time while I'm "working" go down... man, then I actually have to do something...

    My whole day at work was basically testing all the Macs to see if their proxies and IPs were working. I go to bit-tech and it says the database was down. There went my whole day. Ended up just atually doing work. :rolleyes: :D

    Yeah, for my last 3 or 4 replies I have gotten database errors and had to reload to get it to go through. All of these posts show as no new posts even when there are new posts. :eyebrow: :worried:

    Alaric, I just noticed that the post counts are staying the same. Man, I have been posting a bunch too. This is a pointless waste of trying to up my post count. :rolleyes: Also, even though the forums dont seem to be updating I keep getting email notifications that people have replied. :eyebrow: Whats up with that?

    i'm not allowed to be an admin... probably because they think i'd ban ppl randomly when drunk.... oh hang on.... i CAN ban ppl :D

    also i ain't admin'd a vB board since it was on version 1 :p

    it was weird earlier, I had 5 or 6 responses to this thread but it was showing 0 replies. I knew I had them because I got the email notification.

    I believe the post count is caught up too... If this is #53 for me, then it is.

    Thanks monolith... Another of the surprisingly large DFW Bit-Tech contingent :) Thanks to the admins/mods/support people here, you all make it worth visiting.

    Hmm.. if it was beer spilled on the server, and the server is located in Dallas (?) I really hope it was Shiner Bock.

    later,


    S.

    EDIT: Post count not updating.

    At least the forums aren't COMPLETELY dead! But I've been playing w/ 3ds and my window all day so I would've missed everything anyway. :)
