EmilyAnnCoons 7 Report post Posted July 21, 2007 Okay, so, here is how it will be going down: Sometime in the next month, we will be un-installing and re-installing all of the mods. As such, any and all info posted in the mods MAY be lost (we are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause). I have looked things over, and I cannot download the databases for the mods, as doing so will cause the databases to become re-corrupt. This has been tested with the statistics mod, which is now working, but has been re-installed three times due to this. So, we are giving all members time to download anything they want put back up, so that, afterwards, you may repost everything once again. Again, we are sorry for the inconvenience of this re-install, but it will fix the database issues with the old 110mb database. Until then, the statistics work at least. Also, I will be installing some new emoticons, avatars into the gallery, and probably some other small things like that. EDIT: Also, I want to ask if people are pleased with the inviki add-on we have, or if we should move to the normal wikimedia program, which places like wikipedia use. It's all up to you guys and what you would prefer. If you choose Other, though, you MUST post...we can't do anything you want if you don't post. (I clicked other for the only reason that I could see the votes without doing anything...and cause I don't like having my vote count, since its all about you guys, and not me.)

Marked 197 Report post Posted July 22, 2007 Are you saying that all members and posts will be lost? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EmilyAnnCoons 7 Report post Posted July 22, 2007 No, I am just re-installing the mods, like the blogs, gallery, etc. (though I may not be able to re-install either of those). So, I guess I'll say it this way: If you have anything on the wiki, or anything on one of the add-ons, like the blogs, gallery, and so forth you want saved, please save them. The forum is not changing, but all of the add-ons that we have are being re-installed. Oh, and I added a quick poll to the top as well, it deals with the wiki that is installed on the site.

EmilyAnnCoons 7 Report post Posted August 4, 2007 Sorry it took so long to post this...was having internet trouble when hitting "add reply." We haven't done any re-installing, though we now have a time for the re-install, therefore, we wish everyone to download everything you want to keep that is currently in the add-ons by August 15. On August 16 (if I'm not busy) I will be doing the re-install of all mods. This should take about a day, and the board will be closed to any and all non-admins and moderators. This is just to keep someone from putting something on a mod before a re-install, and causing problems. So, the forum will be going down sometime August 16, and coming back up August 17.

Marked 197 Report post Posted August 27, 2007 What is actually not working? It seems the mods are working fine... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EmilyAnnCoons 7 Report post Posted September 1, 2007 Yeah, I figured I'd do a re-install anyway, just in case, but i forgot...and no one has complained about non-working mods so...I don't think I'll worry about it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
