I noticed it was down when I tried to access a few minutes ago. I just figured your rabbits spilled your cup of coffee on the server ^^;;

adorable culprit.

also, thanks for the update, yo. :3


(while i have you on the wire, how does one request a file to be placed in the downloads section? we found a desktop mascot that may belong there. :0 )

It's our rabbit.

It just depends on the file, usually Pitkin handles this for large files, but nothing prevents to make another files topic for regular uploads. Current limit for "regular uploads" is around 20Mb if i remember.

post with link here. (https://ostan-collections.net/forum/index.php?topic=629.msg168432#msg168432)

we can't post in the downloads thread, so should we just leave it alone? or can pitkin modify one of the posts to have it? the zip includes the program and a google-translated version of the text (dunno the quality inside the program), all at 2.6Mb. :0

That's right :) Thanks !

@Choco : Wiki can also be used for putting files, as long as they have a reasonable interest for the site. Would also allow a description for it.

good to know, but would it end up in the downloads section? sorry to drag this out, but it seems weird to have the downloadables separated. :0

What about we put all in a wiki-download section ? I like the idea to have a desc and not just a list of downloads.

A link from forum to wiki download page then.

love it. it makes more sense anyway. do you want me to download and post the items there, or should an admin do it?

I have no clue what's going on, or if this is even related to the server move, but none of the topics are displaying properly. I can't see any new posts unless I click on the Reply button; as otherwise every page of every topic looks like the picture I've included (I'd attach it, but my avatar isn't displaying, so I figured it was best to upload it off-site and link it):

Hopefully it's a simple fix on your end. Thanks in advance

I'm actually surprised that message from me actually went through at all. Still, curious about what was going on; is everything ok?

The mainframe running our servers got a cold. Luckily, pouring a mug of boiling hot tea inside its air vent seems to have solved the problem.

That is to say, server reboot.

Out of curiosity what is the server like for a site like this? I imagine it's far beyond the specs of the average desktop. The site works well for me, no complaints.

Well, you need something fitting :)

starve a cold, drown a mainframe!? o__o

glad to see the hiccups have been resolved. :3

Resorting to violence helped.

well, if violence ISN'T the answer, what is? :0
