Hi folks,

Unfortunately, we had a pretty severe server crash this evening which took us down for quite awhile. We're back up now but we've had to disable a few of our custom functions to ensure that we're working correctly so there may be some buttons missing until morning.

Please note that we're taking the Forum down again around 3am this morning to backup the database and it will likely be down for another couple of hours at that point.

Apologies for the inconvenience folks and thanks for bearing with us. Many thanks to MSE Ian and MSE Neil for stepping up and getting the Forum running again.

If you spot any glitches or errors, please report them here.

hiya, just to report 'any glitches or errors'

the 'enter button' on the competitions board isn't showing for me,

is it showing for anyone else who does comps board ?

hope you can get it back up & running please,

it's invaluable to us on the comps boards as helps us track,

keep an eye on which ones we've done

thanks if you can help

I wanted to tell everyone that I did the Great North Run and couldn't.

Well done Webby and Co. I went to bed thinking about you all IT wrangling through the night and was glad I wasn't - been there, done that, got the t-shirt (in a previous life).

Having a bit of a hiccup in the last half hour. Reply box is hanging rather than letting me submit, then it loses what I've posted.

Interested to see if this posts...

Edit: That's okay then, hope it was just a glitch in my internet connection.

Site is extremely slow this early afternoon. Pages taking 30 seconds plus to load and often timing out.

There's a button called spam, you know if you click on it, does it show over the post, next to the name :eek: the feature is cleverer than I thought.

You mean everyone can see it? That would be little harsh if we get it wrong isn't it? I clicked on the spam button on a post just to humor myself

Its only the abuse team that are all-seeing, all-knowing, lol, no-one else can see you have pressed the spam button and if you decide you have made a mistake you can change your mind
