Changes to the board

[koren808]

Is there any reason why now the replies don't have the name under last comment, and now only has the time? Also, why did every post from the 2nd page on get wiped out? Maybe Lee or Mitch can help me out on this one. Not complaining, just curious. <p>-------------------<br><br>"75 percent of the world is covered by water.

Best I can figure is covered here:<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://p079.ezboard.com/fezboardimporta ... <!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>There was a topic about Class AA in the main forum which was delivering an error whenever I opened the topic. I attempted to move that to a different forum in the hope of clearing it up, and the topic was lost.<br><br>Not sure what else is going on, but when I went to view the Admin Log, every entry had been deleted. Prior to that, Mitch and I were able to see every action we had taken (bannings, topic moves, topic deletions, Forum creations, all that stuff).<br><br>EZ Board is screwing up, apparently.<br><br>Want more good news? Our Gold Community status is coming up for renewal. If Overspeed.com doesn't opt to put up the funds to continue its sponsorship, then all the features we gained by going Gold are lost.

Well at least I don't think I'm crazy anymore. I would get that funky looking error message that was on page 2 of the AA Rankings when I would try to reply sometimes and I had the same problem as Koren. I really hope someone does the gold sponsorship thing, I liked the chat a lot. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... lasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>Elk River AA State Champions- 2001 Boys & 2004 Girls</p><i></i>

Did the Hacker strike back again today? The baseball thread is all messed up, and the topics on the cafe are in really random orders. Then, all the unknown posts are from today, like it was all on the 1st or whenever. I hate hackers. <p>-------------------<br><br>"75 percent of the world is covered by water.

As for all the posts which appear to be missing, they all show as having been posted on 6/13 at 2:02 p.m. My guess (and until we get more info from EZBoard, it <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>is</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> only a guess) is that these are posts which weren't able to be restored. <br><br>EZBoard, in one of their updates, said that the posts were going to be scrambled, date-wise, until the final step of the restoration process.<br><br>I'm of the opinion, from what I've seen so far, that none of the lost posts will be restored. Some arsetard found a hole in EZBoard's security and exploited it for probably no better reason than to show his or her little friends that it could be done. Dopes (c).<br><br>The other issue pending is that our Gold Community status expires tomorrow and Mitch, from his last email to me, didn't have a solid commitment to carry it forward. Which means:<br><br>1. Unless you're an EZSupporter, say hello to the popup ads again.<br><br>2. Threads will again be limited to 500 posts. What this means for those threads which are over 500 posts already, I'm not sure.<br><br>3. Say goodbye to Community Chat.<br><br>There may be other lesser benefits, but those are the three which I see having the greatest impact.<br><br>This bites.<br><br>Lee <p>____________<br>Message Board arsonist since 2005</p><i></i>

It looks like EZBoard was able to restore most of the posts which were lost in the Board attack. What used to be three pages of topics in this Forum is now back up over ten pages.<br><br>There is still the issue of the out-of-order dates in the topics, but it should be resolved as the final step of the restoral process, according to EZBoard.<br><br>Lee <p>____________<br>Message Board arsonist since 2005</p><i></i>
