  1. Yeah, the difference I responded to your post, which was not even 2 hrs old... that's a bit different from 2 years wouldn't you say? Safe swoops Sangiro
  2. Can either or both of you post the eror messages you're getting please. The usual stream of people have signed up today so I need to know a bit more to understand why you're getting errors and how I can help. Safe swoops Sangiro
  3. Are you guys actually responding to posts that are 2 years old? I'm impressed. Safe swoops Sangiro
  4. AH. You're the second person to bring this up. I suspect this is JavaScript related... to start with, please tell me.. do you have ZoneAlarm or any other personal firewall installed? Safe swoops Sangiro
  5. Hey Ted, I'm going to leave it at that and let you have your say. I'm sure you're a smart guy so I trust you'll step back from this and think about whether this is really a battle you want to fight here. I hope you'll be able to enjoy the other forums while the ban on these two run out. Safe swoops Sangiro
  6. This seems to be working again now. I'm still not convinced I know exactly what caused this. It's too on-and-off. The error may pop up again. Please let me know here when that happens. Safe swoops Sangiro
  7. Yup - it seems to be coming from the server sidewhich is why it is on and off. I'm not sure what's causing it. Looking into it. Safe swoops Sangiro
  8. Two other threads about this allready. Locking this one. Safe swoops Sangiro
  9. Calm down. I'm lookin into this. Locking this thread as there are thrtee about the same topic. Safe swoops Sangiro

    Suicide - No pull

    An off duty soldier died after making a parachute jump in Co Londonderry. Sgt David Halls, 43, from Bangor Co Down, died while taking part in a jump at the Wild Geese Skydiving Club near Garvagh. A message was found in his car explaining that t
  11. I think this is due to some other changes we've made. Found a template that was not being cached. This will certainly improve the performance as well (and is how we found it), but it can also quite possibly be the culprit that caused the blank page loads. The proxy errors happens when the server is overloaded. That's usually a symptom of all these other things that we're trying to fix.
  12. I shut them off for a while. I'm looking into why the performance of the site has degraded over the last few weeks. (should be much faster again now) I suspect the little checkmarks, amongst other things, were killing the server. There's a lot of work that that needs to be done by the server just to generate one checkmark. Every time a page is viewed the script hads to run though every post, on every thread in on that page to check for your name. Some threads have thousands of posts to them. Can you imagine how often people flip back to the forum view page.... every time that happens this whole process has to repeat itself. Not very optimal and very little value add. Safe swoops Sangiro
  13. Well, if you insist then... I banned you for 2 weeks from Speaker's Corner as well. Safe swoops Sangiro
  14. Kimberley, Read the forum rules. Personal attacks is a sure way to loose your posting privileges on Dropzone.com. Safe swoops Sangiro
  15. Naaw, it was me. I'm tinkering with how I publish articles to Dropzone.com. Moving all the content to a mySQL database. There will be a few bumps along the way. Safe swoops Sangiro
  16. Who knows! Safe swoops Sangiro
  17. Personal attacks in Speaker's Corner. Safe swoops Sangiro
  18. Thanks... but I also need a map of every state. This one is not particularly nice... Hehehehe! I think you pulled this from http://www.netstate.com/. YUou can get state maps there as well. I've looked there before. Would like something a bit "better looking" than those. Here's a map of Florida that I think is good to use. Now, just find me a site that has all the states in this quality - that I'm allowed to use. This could work. Keep them coming...
  19. Heya all, I have to be in Washington DC from the 24th - 27th. Also need to be in Boston on the 8th of June so I'm considering staying somewhere on that side of the US between the two events. Thinking of spending some time in Florida over Memorial Day weekend and maybe the week after. Anything going on worth visiting then? Nothing finalized yet...
  20. Yup - It's GForum by Gossamer-Threads. It's the latest version with a bunch of customizations. Safe swoops Sangiro
  21. Quick comment on this... If the little check-marks become a new driver to "post whore" I will remove that functionality. I'm always amazed how some can people find ways to abuse something and in the end spoil it for everyone who use the way it was intended. Let's try to avoid that. Safe swoops Sangiro
  22. It's been asked before an I think it's a good idea. If you can find me a free set of graphics of the US and all the states (nice and clean graphic files) then I'll take a look into it.
  23. The decimal is at the wrong place. been discussed before. I have not fixed it yet. your file is 117 kb. Safe swoops Sangiro
