Okay that post just messed with my head for about thirty seconds - I'm looking at it like - what's wrong with my browser? Grinning

Markus my friend - much appreciation at allowing myself choice and much appreciation for you and all the folks here.

I allowed myself the choice today - and it really feels great! Fresh air and sunny skies is the only way I can describe it.

The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades Cool

A messge from our hosting company. I guess we are on those boxes which had the file system problem because I have noticed occasional outages of 1-3 minutes. Didn't notice the big outage, but maybe some of you encountered it, so here' sthe background.

Quote:
Dear Bluehost Customer,

This evening (July 14th) from about 5:25pm-6:55pm many of our servers
were offline causing significant downtime for many of our users. The
outage was due to a severe power outage in the north end of Orem, Utah
where our servers are located. We do have UPS backup as well as diesel
generators, but at about 5:30 they finally gave out. The power outage
was for much longer than that period of time, but the reserve power
was eventually consumed in its entirety. When it rains it pours.

For users on box65-box145 there have been periodic problems with the
Redhat linux kernel that we were using that was causing problems with
the filesystem that your data is stored on. This issue has been causing
periodic problems for users on those boxes. In the last few days we have
resolved that issue which also caused those boxes to require a reboot.

The downtime is extremely regretable. We apologize profusely for the
inconvenience to our customers and in turn to those who were trying to visit
your sites during the outage. With the fixes we have put in place in the
last few days coupled with other upgrades you should experience MUCH
better uptime in the future.

Thanks for you patience,

Matt Heaton / President Bluehost.com

Hi Markus,

Question Question Question Would you happen to know why I don't have a tab (with my current skin I'm using) to get out of the forum and to the main page? Question Question Question I can get to the forum from the main page but not vice versa. Eric says his skin is not that way, but he also doesn't have all the cool tabs that I have!

Stuck in wonderland,

The tabs at the top of the skins are all hand coded which is quite a bit of work and I did that for the official skin only (there are currently two "official" skins … BlueFlash and FiSubSilverShadow, where BlueFlash is more experimental and I'm still playing with the design of that one).

With all the others you need to click on the "exploring the shift" text in the blue bar and that should bring you back to the home page (at least in theory … if not please let me know which skin you're using) and go to the other places from there.

I'm not aware of anything that would not work (didn't do anything with the board today).

Are your other posts showing?

Markus, 'new' posts are now highlighted (this one-yours-was first today)……

Yep, my next post showed up, after the disappearing post…..BUT, I just consider 'strange' energy expressing.

The 'disappearing' one was the one and only I've tried to post from HyperShadow skin….(note: it also was not showing 'highlited' new posts either).

Anyway, not to be concerned, Markus……it's just my energy expressing….everything seems fine now. (I'll re-post my original post)

thumb ….all's well in sylvii's reality.

The highlights are never down for your own posts, so I guess that one was indeed okay.

hehehe…no, I should have clarified. I know they don't show for my own posts. The earlier posts of Steffano and Daal were not highlighted.

But, like I said, everything is A-OK now!

We seem to have a lot of guest readers lately (and just broke the all time record for users a few minutes ago). Did anyone pimp the forum on a list or hear anything?

hmmm…when regulars aren't logged in, they show up as 'guest', so maybe it was just some of the regulars.

How do I know they show up as 'guest'? because I've come in numerous times (with no one else in here) and not logged in and it shows 'guest' (not 'hidden').

But, then again, maybe there were some new viewers…who knows?

I passed the link to some people who might be interested Smile .

But I know from the other forum that spider programs (google&CO) love to visit Boards Smile .

Just recently I looked "who is online" at Blueflash and there were "guests" checking private messages. Thats a hint that they weren´t "guests" as you must be logged in to view private messages.

Marina
