well I retract it then! stet probably doesn't realize he's dealing with a slew of co-dependent loonies across the globe.
(OK, on second thought, I retract that too)

hah no worries. I mean I think it's just important to realize that
1) stet has a full-time job2) stet is sacrificing his valuable free time to both put the sandbox up and to get ILX back up3) status updates are just cherries on top
I mean, I jones just as much as the next ilxor when one or both are down but at the same time I'm not in the trenches rewriting the code! so it's all good

besides finding the favicon somewhat unsettling of course

i dunno, sb, y'know?
― bloating forecast: ruff swells (p much resigned to deems), Thursday, 15 December 2011 15:49 (twelve years ago) link
sb the favicon?
― sir thermo of thinwall, Thursday, 15 December 2011 15:52 (twelve years ago) link
It's true that my main motive for wanting the Real ILX back is to get the goddamn Oscar nerding off the film detrius thread.
― Dr Morbius, Thursday, 15 December 2011 15:54 (twelve years ago) link
wow okay complete misread there

i kiss you all; sorry for raising hopes. I mean "just about ready" in the context of "this has taken many many days, only a few more".
I'm pretty certain it'll be open for business tomorrow or Sat latest. I will probably just post here when it is, so I can bring the users back in slowly, then let the hordes return when it's all stable.
― stet, Thursday, 15 December 2011 16:07 (twelve years ago) link
we aren't the horde?!
― sir thermo of thinwall, Thursday, 15 December 2011 16:09 (twelve years ago) link
I'm an attention horde.

All you had to do was create an Oscar thread, champ.
― Lord Sotosyn, Thursday, 15 December 2011 16:10 (twelve years ago) link
MOI???
that is hardly necessary for "a few day" anyhoo
― Dr Morbius, Thursday, 15 December 2011 16:13 (twelve years ago) link
I can only see the favicon as a scene from a Roadrunner cartoon.
Oh - will Sandbox posts be available (searchable) through regular ILX? The main reason I miss regular ILX is b/c this place feels ephemeral. And b/c identities are unclear to me.
― Sandbox Jesse, Thursday, 15 December 2011 16:16 (twelve years ago) link
sandbox is sandbox, so near yet so far

i am sad that some of the thread over here will be marooned.
― cad, Thursday, 15 December 2011 16:22 (twelve years ago) link
those threads will be like voyager 1, tweeting into the vast emptiness of space w/ only a few stalwarts around to receive their transmissions

Jesus recommends you upgrade to a flat panel monitor, and pay more attention to workstation ergonomics.

^^^ sandbox is the BEST, i'm gonna be really annoying on ilx talking about how it was way better & how stet should merge it & how we should or shouldn't have sbs but how it was definitely better the way it was or wasn't before
― Never translate German (schlump), Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:29 (twelve years ago) link
I prefer to remember the sandbox as the Shangri-La of ILE.

i'll be glad to be off sandbox tbh
thanks for all your work, stet \(^o^/)

I might keep a foot in both. I miss a bunch of old ILX threads though

Will the wish anus find us on real ILX?

I wanted old ilx up so I could be all jaymc.xls and do some research for my secret santa gift, but I'm just going to wing it.
― Nicole, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:49 (twelve years ago) link
YE gods the weird stuff always happens when I'm stuck on a phone. That downtime tonight was unexpected. I think an ILX background job went off on one, which shouldn't happen. Checking now.
― stet, Thursday, 15 December 2011 23:44 (twelve years ago) link
stet
ur fired
/sugar
― bloating forecast: ruff swells (p much resigned to deems), Thursday, 15 December 2011 23:45 (twelve years ago) link
I missed the downtime! I just logged in and saw that nobody had updated for 4 hours. thought it seemed a little suspicious.

I have turned on some other site, to see how this level of server takes the load. Don't spread the word too far yet.
