Bernard has been flickering off and on several times today. Be prepared for a sudden outage.

Nice it came back. However where I live my broadband is so astoundingly slow, currently 1.13 mb/s that using a proxy would be unwise. Although I can see that for those living in semi-totalitarian theocracies such as Iran or the USA they may be a necessity.

Oh, we have Miserable Users, from the creation. But there are no people in that group now; and the 7 that were, who hadn't come back for a long while, were transferred back to the normal user-group. I wanted it installed upon another forum solely for the benefit of another mod who was...

I've yet to work out how people use it --- I'd rather concentrate on the flash problems for flvs and youtube swfs ( flvs ) and mp3s, none of which work exactly as promised; and changing hosting --- but it's on the list. You may glean more from the hack page. :angel01:

I made your last post into a new thread, since it was not to do with Bernard's tenuous hold upon reality. Yeah, the bandwidth was exceeded around 9pm GMT. I contacted ASO and they restored it for $1 --- standard fees. Otherwise it would have had to wait for 6-7 hours til the month's turn at...

Well, actually... most of the differences in the great leap forward from the elderly feudalistic paper tiger 3.6.5 to the present shining light of socialist achievement, 3.8.4 are real but imperceptible. The large array of new and updated hacks --- called mods by vbulletin for your added...

Around 45 minutes, again not Bernard but our old friend: has more than 'max_user_connections' active connections Something to do with mysql. As I was concurrently downloading a mysql backup ( which is unconnected ) this was alarming since restoring a broken backup would not be ideal... IF...

The Add Multiple Smilies tool, whilst saving on individual honing of each masterpiece truncates the replacement text and fails to add the closing colon, leading to those with the same beginning structure being identical. Of course this may be obviated by initially renaming each smilie, I...

Certainly, provided that someone more spiritual than myself can find some. :kali: I would doubt this, since the only large smilies are the Bats, the Elephant, the Storks and the Regal Twitter-Bird, and of those only the elephant and the storks are more than 2KB, being 3KB and 4KB...

Around 50 more of the little fellows were added yesterday. The main trouble is, as above, that --- certainly upon the forum default of Dark Castle { rather stripped from the original style, and which style has not been revised by it's - excellent - author } --- the 'Smilies More' java...

Down for 20 min. Nothing to do with Bernard. An Eaccelerator crash. I replaced the class_core.php and it started again. Something to do with caching... :icon_captain:

Why, thanks... :cool:

OK, that's another whole hour on the same day... Moving from Aldo to Bernard seems less of a good idea --- not that they even informed me of the move they made. I spent the hour looking up alternative hosts. Which all sound much the same without personal experience of each. Global Gold...

Really ? I thought that that was one of the hacks that didn't work... I've yet to see a notifier --- which is meant to happen; but than perhaps I've not posted on a thread which upon anyone else was simultaneously working.

I think vBulletin rather rushed 3.8.4. The above may have nothing to do with that; but a number of things don't work. They're concentrating on the new 3.4 ( which seems likely to be more expensive )...

Bis. I'm gonna sticky this...

Bernard yet again 2 - 3 hours this time...

OK, I've installed a block of French Extra BB Codes... We shall leave the above one on for now --- [ spoil ] [ /spoil ] But there is a new one, accessible from the Advanced Editor or by typing [ spoiler ] [ /spoiler ]

Re: Arcade Issue: Boat Hunt Volunteers are requested to read each post in this thread to seek a solution http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=101554 This recent post mentions the problem vBulletin.org Forum - View Single Post - ibProArcade - professional Arcade System

Imagine what hard-working, fiscally responsible, 'git off my land or I'll shoot you, yar loafers', dead conservative libertarians think when they enter Heaven...

Re: Arcade Issue: Boat Hunt Most of them come from here: http://www.ibpdownloads.com/ipb/index.php?autocom=arcade&cat=12 Though you can't privately download them without a forum running IbProArcade. Conversely, I should imagine that elderly flash games may not integrate that well with the...

The server was out for a while during the last hour. For future reference the truly insane may wish to bookmark this checker http://status.asmallorange.com/ and look for Bernard's status, when intpforum is suddenly gone. :borg0: :cat: :smoker:

Well, it needs some work for dark boards, but it'll do for now. Use BB Code [ spoil ] [ /spoil ].

OK.

That's nice. *tepidly* Indeed. However, only the initial posts of a new member are scanned for mortal error: whether of the sins of the spam or of the troll. Regular members may re-edit their posts for I understand, one day. Myself, I would limit this to 15 or 30 minutes, solely for the...

It is a mechanism/storage facility hack, called Downloads II for members to place items they wish to share. No-one has used it so it may as well go. As to the original question I have no opinion either way. In my experience, girls on the internet have absolutely no difficulty in revealing...

Forum opened again, if anyone reading this gets confused.

It is the correct point of view, nicht wahr ? *heavily* *finds there are no pickelhaubed smilies in the whole universe --- resolves to create a new, better universe*

Warning People are free to PM the OP with this information if they desire, but absolutely no names and birthdays will be posted here. Any posts containing these will be deleted. However innocent the intention, posting identity fraud material upon the internet is dumb. However useful to stalkers.

UPDATE Most of the above are now in. 11 so far. EDIT: And more the 'More' button has deigned to appeared, though so faintly in this style... [ The Hoplites are there, moved slightly to make the initial tray simpler. ] What's more, in Firefox it opens a mini-window rather than Ajaxly...

It does look unwieldy. Partly cos the Hoplites one forces the first vertical line out of juncture with it's fellows. I had assumed that the 'More' button would appear after a certain number, so far not --- and searching 'smilies more button vbulletin' really gets one an awful lot of...

Face's Fairy Kingdom moved to the Oubliette. :hoplite:

The ASO server seems to have been down from 4-7. And I got a barrel-load of duplicate max-connection auto-emails. I sent a ticket. However, Ogion appears right about your own problem.

Having transited to the wondrous new smilies, suggested by Anthile from this site, http://www.greensmilies.com/smilie-album/ members can here paste additional smilies from there they would like added. Or from other sites. Don't go nuts, though.

OK, Anthile's smilies are now in. I'm closing this thread partly since the upload of those has altered the integrity of the disputing posts by ineluctably substituting Anthile's smilies for the ones which referenced either the ancients or the second set laid out in the first post. However, a...

Those two have been replaced in their proper addresses. A new onslaught will be willed to replace the other standard smilies with Anthile's Greens; plus plenty of extras from the associated green packs.

This thing prolly needs tuning... http://vbgaming.org/forum/portal.php http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=219483 I have no idea how the cash system works, and set up a minimal install. I guess each member finds his stash magically renewed each morning, or something, the same as...

A/ Which icons ? Buttons, post-icons, smilies... ? All seem present. B/ Banners. Let's hope that someone graphically inclined can rework these old styles, it's to do with PSD files which are re-edited then placed somewhere in the /images/style folders. We only have 4 alternate styles...

Uh, a new hack now allows integration of forum posts with Twitter. Your Twitter options are in User CP way down the list on the left. And after that I assume Tweet This appears everywhere. It does everywhere else on the web.

Going down the picture in the first post of the aged smilies, perhaps someone could identify this ( counting the top as no. 1 ), so that it can be kept in place with the right ': identity :'.

I've known I was superior since the age of five: therefore I have no need of power. What is implicit need not be exercised. Anyway, as a monarchist I believe that state power should reside in natural hands; and as a Spenglerian I think it doesn't matter where it resides in this epoch since...

Variously different modifications are being added at random --- and ruthlessly discarded at will. An announcement as to changes added will be made when the current bout of additions is exhausted. :cat: The favicon of the Cross Pattee, or the Maltese Cross , reminiscent as Anthile implies...

I'm rather surprised, since I never saw any spell-checking on vBulletin. Searching reveals the two most recent threads dealing with this on the vBulletin.com site: Link 1, Link 2, indicate it has not been a feature for a long time, except that for users of Internet Explorer there was a icon...

That is roughly what I said; the link to the expanded tray appears automatically if one uploads over a certain number of emoticons. The question is whether the standard smilies shown are the default [ old ] smilies, or a distinctive new set, such as Anthile's green smilies. Mais où sont les...

I'm leaning to those. After some more votes here to allow enough time --- 28 votes so far, about half preferring the vBulletin default gif smilies --- I'll close and start a new poll, including any suggestions here. Only through relentless self-examination and willingness to change can the...

Ye should be careful of Jamie, he's a tough customer. Notwithstanding, whilst glad Guido failed I have never joined in the annual fireworks rejoicing in his downfall simply because of that element of fire. *disapproves of burning even effigies*

I've had so many cats that I regard them as little brothers and sisters --- vide St. Francis of Assisi --- and little siblings can't control their elder brother.

*.png smilies work if, and only if, they are uploaded and pathed within /images/smilies --- for the attempt at having clear boundaries, I first attempted to keep different sets each in their own sub-directory and map there: vbulletin doesn't accept this; despite offering the ability ( it...

I too like Auburn's since they are less violent than the new, and less web1998 than the old: the only thing is they are slightly tiny.* * "A bit smorl, isn't he ?", as the bird nesting in Arthur Dent's statue remarked of Mr. Dent standing within the said giant statue.

Edward IV would have the solution to all your problems: actually most of his forebears had the same serene solution for anyone who disagreed with them.
