^^comments work

lol, just posted a topic about it and a second later Addy pm's me about the problem

And that topic wont be visible until the problem gets fixed

At least Comments and PMs work

I had an urge to write a PM to nearest admin with the subject "Danger Will Robinson. The Forum Is Malfunctioning"

only Waghlon to make a reference absolutely no one would get

next you'll be suggesting coconuts migrate...

If you dont get "Danger Will Robinson", what kind of human are you really? Maybe a sane one, but rest be assured that im not only one that gets it.

I googled it so i know now

Maybe i should go back to making Portal references in secrecy.

it was a joke. in that there was a reference in my post that not many people would get.

Bug located, but can't be corrected, before CT gets online

Isso: In what universe doesnt people know their Holy Grail in and out?

Wow, found CT's mobile phone number, now he just have to answer one message, and the site is up

I like how you first blamed the FTP, and now the SQL database. Like if you were an educated IT professional!

FTP - MySQL, they're practically the same

Not at all xD Two very different things, who work together

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MySQL

Which is fun because you wrote about the FTP forum database in the PM Addy. Hmm

When i sent the PM, the news article said FTP

I don't know the difference, i wanted to do IT as GCSE and A-Level but they said i couldn't do it because it clashed with my other lessons. If it didn't clash then we wouldn't have had this problem

Surely it didnt clash with your "how to break computers" class right?

No, that class got cancelled

btw i didn't break the forum, no-one did

FixedB)

Suuuuuure

Brilliant!

is it really fixed?? I think the Christmas thread had more posts

i think the posts people made in threads whilst the forum was down, didn't actually register and people will have to re-post what they posted in that period.

that's what i've had to do

Posts made at the time the problem still is existed never will become viewable. They have to be re-posted.

"What? A swallow carryin a coconut?"

she turned me into a newt, she did!

ok ok, I'll stop

oh and Addy, very shortly and simply:

SQL is a programming language for databases. you use it to describe to the machine how data will be inseted into a DB and how it will be read from it.

FTP is method to transfer FILES (not pieces of data. whole files)

simple, huh?
