What's with the community forums? This is the only place I can get into directly, I can't get into any of the forums themselves, and when I click on one of the threads under "Community", the "other threads" on the left are all from this one. Eeep? Thanx!

And I see that, tho' I posted this in "Firefly News", it came up under "General Discussion"...somebody screwing with the site or something?

I can't speak for niki or others, but the problem certainly seems to have been fixed for me.

Yah, someone's been messing with the site quite a bit, usual spammer/malware jerks trying to drive traffic by pokin holes in our favorite hangout, may they burn for it.

Haken's been workin on it for a bit now, and I tellya, if he needs any additional hardware or software I'd be happy to help out, but mostly it's the grunt work of patching code, which I do not envy him in the slightest.

I wouldn't mind puttin a virtual torpedo up the rear of the folks doin it (it all seems to be coming from a single source, and an unskilled one at that) but I am hesitant to go messin with something that don't belong to me - tho whatever provider they are using might be amenable to cutting them off if they can be shown logs of the activity.

So three cheers for the Hak-meister, cause he's just awesome like that.

When does this occur? I just posted a new thread and then responded to myself. No errors encountered. What steps do I need to take to reproduce the problem?

testing...

I used "reply", made the message, clicked on the "update my post" button under this text window, and got the "page cannot be displayed" message for fireflyfans.net/updatemessage.asp address (I think that is all correct - that is either "savemessage" or "updatemessage" pages). I have been backing out to the thread display, hitting refresh, and checking if the post popped up. Aslo happens with reply with quote.

My work computer has cookie restrictons, so maybe try to create the error without your cookies. But this is not the normal occurance, even with this computer. It has happened before (on other computers), but you've always fixified it before.

Seconded, every word.

Site seems much better today. Yesterday I was having issues with getting ANY of the forums to come up when I clicked on them from the "Community" page, but if I clicked on one of the 5 active threads up top, the thread itself would come up - I just couldn't find a way into the individual forums the threads were posted in, and I couldn't find a way to post a NEW thread!

As said, all seems better today.

I'm on a Mac, if that makes any difference.

Thank 'ee, Haken, it's working better for me today! Except when I go into a topic, the threads on the left are all under the topic "Other News" and are all from General, not from whatever forum I'm actually IN. And yes, what was happening to me yesterday was exactly what was happening to you, Mike. Glad to be back!!

Haken: GREAT big



And may the bird of paradise fly up the nose of whoever's screwin' with our favorite place...

Yes indeed. I never realized how much time I spend here, and how close I feel to some of the people here (whom I've never actually met), until it wasn't here for a bit. And that was at a time when I *wasn't* able to be online very much! Imagine how rough it would be if I'd REALLY been jonesing for a Fireflyfans Fix! :)


Haken, you are the very best. Huge thanks for all you do, and to all who support you in your endeavors.

All Hail Haken!!!

Dude you rock as usual and we need to let you know every chance we get. Thanks for all you do to keep us flying.

I had a frightening experience last week when I couldn't get the site at all. From home or work.
It would say "can't find the page."

I thought how can I get a message to Haken, or anyone else for that matter.

Thanks again for that thing you do.

Absofrigginlootely! Except I AM aware of how much time I spend here, and get pissed at myself sometimes. But that's exactly what happened to me...over XMAS of all things! I'm not sure what that says about my life, but I felt the same.
