Yaps - why did you think it was John? ;)

Looks like g4orce's Chicken topic might break a few records then. :)

Daft things keep happening recently.

Posts go missing, Daily Topics dont work.

I think we need maintenance.

Go through the Daily Topics.

No new ones though I suppose.

Do you not think it needs a bit of a spring clean when you've got the time?

Funny things have been happening for a while now.

Well the forum is probably switching over to vBulletin v3 (if/when it ever comes out) in the summer so I'll be cleaning everything up then.

It's still a few months away though so sit tight! :)

btw the Youth Reports topic was the one causing the problem - guess it got too big!

I think I have an old copy of it somewhere which I can reupload but it will probably just feck up again eventually.

That's the one the cocked up the Daily Topics the other day.

Does this VBulletin use a DB? I think that will be far more stable.

But it wasn't as big as the NBA one by a big margin. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

But was each post much bigger. Maybe the problem isn't the number of posts, but the size of the whole thread in bytes?

Can PERL only cope with 16bit file lengths? <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />

Ok nerd joke that just went way over my head!! ;)

yes VB uses mySQL/PHP and should be much more stable than this cgi crap!

They're on version 2.3 atm but a totally overhauled v3 is due in the next couple of months (apparently)....

I think it makes more sense. There will be far fewer problems. Sad to lose UBB, but things move on.

Well you can adopt the style to look pretty much exactly like UBB but I doubt we'll go down that road....
