Define Cynical Fan Forums

Actually it's unavailable every time it goes down, which has been several times today alone. You just don't notice it unless you're actually trying to use the site.

So some of you may have noticed that, after a year of damn near flawless operation, there have been some new issues cropping up preventing you from accessing these forums. Something is screwing up the mysql (database) server which in turn can cause a lot of things to not be available. I've just fini...

SCARY :X<br><br>

Pretty self explanatory. I was considering putting up a Java IRC client to access #mancubus.net on OFTC, but then I wondered whether or not it was even worth it. I figured this would be an excellent place to ask.<br><br>So, tell me, do you use the client? Do you not? Are you not even sure what we're...

You guys probably already know about this thing, but I didn't find it mentioned when I searched the forums, so here it is:<br><br><a href='http://heifong.phase.org/memes/omname.php' target='_blank'>http://heifong.phase.org/memes/omname.php</a><br><br>I haven't even tried it out, but thought you guys...

Yeah. I experienced a power outage, and it happend not 20 minutes after I came to work. It was caused by one of two things: the weather, because we had some really bad storms this morning, or the landlord, because they were replacing some equipment and it could have tripped the master breaker or som...

Still working on avatar uploading....

chmod 777 is bad, very bad. That's like saying "Hey guys everyone can read write and execute from me go go go!"<br><br>Perhaps I'll try a chmod 755. But thanks for mentioning that, it could be the answer. I'll try it out.

I need to verify with other people that nothing else is wrong with stuff. Already I've found one problem. Image (and therefore avatar) uploading does not seem to be working. I will work this weekend to rectify the error. I need some confirmation on this.<br><br>Oh, and stickied.

Well, I'd like to first apologize to all who had to wait more than a week to get this back. Thankfully I backed this up before doing stuff, and this was ALL I backed up, so consider yourselves quite lucky. <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif' bord...

I promise to bring it up as soon as I possibly can. I can't really say much more than that, other than it'll be my top priority when it happens. It always is. You'll just have to trust me on this one.

Just thought I'd all let you know that the new pipeline installation is in motion. The external wiring for the new line is now in place, and the rest of the installation process will take place on Thursday, January 22nd. <br><br>MancuNET will be going down on Tuesday, January 20th for maintenance an...

Yes it did go down again briefly. At this time I think it would be fair to say that Mancunet at this time runs on a RESIDENTIAL broadband line. And while I do my best to maintain constistency and reliability, ther are certain things that, while not being a big deal to an average home user, do affect...
