Eurobricks Emperor Bonaparte Posted October 11, 2012 Eurobricks Emperor Posted October 11, 2012 Hi Everyone, Yes we are open again after some days of downtime. Due to an unfortunate incident we lost 5 days of posts and are now running a backup from last week Wednesday. We are very very sorry for the loss of these 5 days and will do what we can from this happening ever again (it was the first time as far as I can remember). We have been experiencing some server slowness which we hope to fix by moving to a very powerful dedicated server (now we are on a Virtual Private Server). The new server is rented but we are waiting for the access codes to arrive by regular mail. Since that might take few more days we have decided to re-open the board on the old server. Don't worry, everything will be moved over when the new server is available. - The EB admins SPECIAL NOTE: Your avatar is now your old profile picture, so you may need to change it or adjust the size. It will be automatically resized, so you may actually need to use something larger to achieve the normal 100x100 avatar size. SPECIAL NOTE 2: Request HERE to recover a lost topic (from the 5 day window) Quote
Bob De Quatre Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Glad to see EB back again You all did a great job during this troubled time Quote
Fugazi Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 It is certainly a surprise to see the site up and running again earlier than expected. Well done Admins, and thank you for all the hard work! I hope the transition to the new server goes smoothly. Quote
Kai NRG Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) It is certainly a surprise to see the site up and running again earlier than expected. Well done Admins, and thank you for all the hard work! I hope the transition to the new server goes smoothly. Same here, very glad it's up and running! Edit; I'm still getting a warning point sign (maybe I shouldn't say this but was anyone else aware that you could actually see who had given you the point(s)?)

PsyKater Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 YAY! Hmmm... I may miss the discussion on flickr. Was quite fun these days. Quote
Sam892 Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 It's good to see everything back up again. Shame about loosing five days of posting, but these things happen. Anyway it's great to see EB again was starting to go insane . Quote
Shadows Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Edit; I'm still getting a warning point sign (maybe I shouldn't say this but was anyone else aware that you could actually see who had given you the point(s)?) You're imagining things. Quote
soccerkid6 Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Woohoo! Made my day to see the portal loading again Quote
Vincent Kessels Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 And the first russian spammer was spotted already! Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Well done Bonaparte.Now I have something to do for the day now. Quote
Shadows Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 And the first russian spammer was spotted already! Two, actually. Winter is coming! Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Two things I have just spoted.... Bullet points before 'Country' in the bottom left hand side of the member ID. Smileys seem to be jumbled up. Quote
DwarfSleepy Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Good news to see the site back up. Thanks for the hard work. Quote
Shadows Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Bullet points before 'Country' in the bottom left hand side of the member ID. Smileys seem to be jumbled up. We have absolutely no idea where that dot came from. Seriously, it's a complete mystery. It's funny too, notice that the text is centered properly despite the bullet point and if you try to pick it up, it's hard to determine what it's connected to. It really is bizarre. The smileys are being fixed as we speak. Quote

I can fix that one. Quote
Shadows Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 I can fix that one. I never doubted it for a second. Quote
PsyKater Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 You guys rock this place, but you knew that already. Now I am really curious what will happen to all the Mafia and Heroica Games. Quote
purpleparadox Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Nice job, guys! I missed Eurobricks during those 5 days. Quote
Big Cam Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 All that hard work. :( Well back to the drawing board. Glad to see we are up and running. Quote
Shadows Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Now I am really curious what will happen to all the Mafia and Heroica Games. Have you ever seen Quantum Leap? Quote
PsyKater Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Have you ever seen Quantum Leap? No. (before my time) Did I miss something? Do I have to look for a DVD package (is this even realeased on DVD?) Quote
Shadows Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 (is this even realeased on DVD?) It is on DVD, though they completely destroyed the music due to licensing rights, so don't bother. Basically, it's about going back into the past to fix things that effect the future. It might be what some of these games need to do. I knew I should have picked a more recent reference. Quote
Scouty Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 What a pleasant surprise this is! Big thanks for the admins working to restore the forums, you guys rock Quote
Leo604 Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Thank you for keeping the whole website safe! Quote
