Thread starters can close threads. Happens sometimes.

HI Fred :) YEah, the thread starter can, but this thread starter deleted his account ages ago, so I don't think thats an option? idk, I lost a good hundred posts when that thread went. I posted this in the updates section as well

Yeah I have to give credit to the orginal source Sickgirl brought this to our attention in the Rumormill, the entire Meth vendor review thread is gone and wiped a bunch of our post and i got a demotion to Junior member. Sucks by the way can someone kill or ban that shitcunt ThisisBullshit who keeps posted flaming offensive garbage. I don't know if he's serious or he has a terrible sense of humor but either way its incredibly annoying

I noticed nomad is no longer staff too. There's some odd shit going down.

Nomad's not a mod now?  wtf, no way?

DPR, man, you've still got a little ways to go to get things up and running right...

When I was browsing the forums a few hours ago it was as if EVERYTHING was mirrored from the forums ~ 1 week ago.

I still think the problem is that they fucked up migration of the database... Maybe since Obfuscator no longer exists as an account, when it couldn't find the thread starter it just choked and didn't copy the entire thread.

... can't think of a reason Nomad wouldn't have been a mod a week ago though.  Maybe nobody's a mod anymore, and they forget to re-enable the privileges?  Oh whatever, not like I could do anything about it even if I'm right.  I love SR, I really do... but fuck man.  This sloppy administration is beginning to put even me off.

i wouldn't call it "sloppy". there are so many things that could go wrong at one time..
hell there are a few miniscule things that could go wrong at separate times and still...
completely fuck everything. :x
not sure if people even take into consideration the things DPR and his zombie-staff are doing to correct the issues at hand.
people act like DPR can just click "repair servers" and mmm... everything is fixed. no thanks. i wish.. i am sure we all do, lul.
regardless.. nothing in life is that easy.. ESPECIALLY AN UNDERGROUND ONLINE ANONYMOUS BLACK MARKET.

as for the nomad situation, no clue.
chronic and everyone else is still modding.

as for moving everything over.. i wouldn't doubt it if that is the answer.
if it's being moved.. it has to be transferred.. whether for good or just for fixing.
and i just checked in on nomad.. his stuff is still blue. looks alright.
DPR did say they are going through the final check list and that everything is cake now..
just need to make sure it will not re-crash as soon as it is fixed up.

well... time to go play some vidja' games and smash dabs.




cheers!

Eh, I wasn't really serious.  SR being down I can understand.  Not giving out any details I can understand.  Running into complications mid-process I can understand.  The forum database suddenly losing hundreds of pages without warning, notice, or explanation?  Nah... that on top of everything else the past 2-3 weeks was just a little too much for me to not get just the slightest bit irritated, is all.  It got fixed, problem's over, I had my bitchy little moment -- no big deal :)

Did it get fixed? Is the thread restored or were we told what happened? Just asking, I don't mean for that to come off rude.

I was really pissed with the administration when this whole thing started. I understand specifics can't be given, but it's almost disrespectful of them to be as uncommunicative as they were.

Once DPR came back we started to get kept in the loop at least, but we still see huge things happening without a word from admins. Something's gotta change.

losing posts who cares.. Less link to u the better. PLUS its the past.. FUK it.

the weird thing is that it went a missing. PLUS nomad not a mod PLUS the road down for so long.. Plus bitinstant issues.. there is just too much going on at one time to not be connected in some way.
