    You posted in AlisonG thread, Jody -

    ... but maybe something funny is going on where you have to refresh the screen to see your post -

    this just happened to me here - and in the AlisonG thread

    I was about to say I can't either - but then I refreshed for each one and the post is there.

    I don't know if it was just a coincidence, but close to midnight Saturday night I was in the WF and was about to post to my WF blog when the server connection crashed, and at the exact same time a music site I had open started going goofy on me. I couldn't get the WF to re-load, so I assumed it was my computer doing updates. I closed those browsers and worked on something else.

    Sunday afternoon (now), I am having the same issue you both have mentioned. The last time this happened, someone said that it was due to WF updates in process.

      Yeah, the site was down late last night.

      Then today, I've had problems deleting PM's, posting to threads and using the search function.

      I think the glitches have been worked out.

    Haha! I didn't know this thread was active.

    Thanks everyone for the responses.

    This morning I was trying to post and I'd hit the "submit reply" yet, my post wasn't posted. I did this a few times.

    Finally, I submitted a ticket as I wasn't banned and couldn't figure out what the heck was going on.....Thomas replied:

    we currently have an issue with the forum database
    DUH!!! I hadn't had my morning coffee, and I usually take note of the time when responses to posts are made.

    This morning, I didn't pay any attention to the time . If I had, I would have realized the forum came to a halt at a certain time, as nobody posted after that.

    Glad its up and running again.

    Lol... Happened to me too this morning so I left for awhile.
    When I returned, I realized I had posted 4 times in the same thread!!!
    I promptly deleted the three duplicate posts hoping I wasn't about to be spanked by a Mod... ;-)

    Have a Great Day!

    "Quote:

    That is going to be the correct answer the majority of the time. VBulletin is a great forum platform but I can't think of any other forum that has a db of this many members.

    By the way, great to see you again Michael!

      I was out of commission with the WF from about 9:30 this morning until about 5 pm, this evening, and boy am I glad to be back!

      Hey, Hey! It's Michael!

      It is so great to hear from you, my friend!

      I've thought of you often and wondered if you were doing all right.

      I see by your avatar, you haven't changed a bit, lol!

      Welcome back and don't stay away so long next time. You're missed too badly when you do.

        How is it that you look so much younger in your avatar???
        I guess you're proof that things just get better with age.
        When will you be turning 23?

          Oh My Goodness!

          Thank you, you sweet endearing man.

          You haven't lost any of your charm, I see, lol!

          Let's see, I'll turn 23 in 27 years if time begins running backwards after this one.

            Darling always remember that how you look at life is all that matters!
            Here is the way I try to view it. I also use it to my advantage by not letting the clock run out.


            Have a Great Day!
            Michael

            PS, Paul, Good to see/hear you again too!

              Hey cool! Great to see you back Michael. You've been missed around here. It's been talked about.

              Now if we could just get Roaddog to show up it would start to feel like old times around here.

              Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

    Started at 1 AM, eastern. It was completely down for quite a while. Then they got the DB issue fixed, but it wasn't refreshing views, so posts would "take," but people wouldn't see them. Had a ton of duplicate posts to clean up this afternoon, when things got back to normal.

    With a database this size, fixes are ... slow.

    On the plus side, this thread got Mr Mayo to post, so that's a good thing.
