Database was down

The database was down for most of yesterday. I'm not sure what happened, but support seemed to have fixed it. And fortunately, nothing seems to have been lost.

Yeah, it fall down and go boom, I'm glad to see nothing serious happened. You do seem to have lost all the graphics, etc. though, hopefully that can be restored soonish.

How come whenever anything bad happens that it's attributed to an "act of god"? :-k

Which graphics seem to be missing? It seems to be OK to me.

Well I'm getting a complete blank slate, everything straight text in black and white and zero graphics. Maybe a setting is off somewhere, I'll go take a look.

I think you are in "lo-fi" mode. I was getting that until I clicked on "full version" somewhere on the page.

Yup, that was it. I have no idea why it came back in lo-fi, but I thought of that, then went to the bottom of the page and it said something like "Click here for lo-fi" so I figured I couldn't already be there.

It's fixed now, thanks.

I was afraid that it was something I might have written. (I am not paranoid) :censored:
Or even worse it was something some one else wrote.:2gun:

Heh, tell me about it, it crashed while I was on, one second it was working fine, the next... nothing.

I kept wondering who I pissed off. ;)
