How many times do you click on the link to check if it’s back? I think I’m getting RSI.

Every day I click it less and less

But still, oh, every half hour or so?

Everyday I click it less and less

It’s clear to see that you’ve become obsessed

I’ve got to get this message to the press

That everyday I click it less and less

And everyday I click it less and less

I’ve got to get this feeling off my chest

The Doctor says all I need is pills and rest

Since everyday I click it less and less

Unless, unless ....

i’m so over it.

thehold is better anyway. better people.

eight arms to thehold you.

This place is not the same! I’m desperate to tell everyone my update on when I actually caught up with that wanker trespassing guy who’s been giving everyone hassle and showed him what for.

I’ve actually moved this board into my daily visit folder.

It’s just a click down history for me.

ITS BACK UP!

Not really but who looked?

Me :(

Too quick mate. Too quick.

I’m catching up on a lot of early 90s RPGs.

It really IS back! hooray!

Good old line 127

Stan, you BASTA(A)RD!

I clicked like the sad loser I am. :-((((

awww...remember when people looked like something in august 2006

I’m sure someone will announce here when it’s back so don’t keep checking. it’s more than a poxy fule this tim.e

Here’s what I know:

1. The database is completely knackered, and won’t start up. ILX won’t be back until it’s fixed.

2. Andrew is trying to fix it, but is also massively busy. A server restart might do the trick, but that can’t be done until Monday

3. Nobody with the heavy mySQL-fu has stepped up to fix it.

4. Here we are!

A poxy clusterfuck.

Maybe ILX should put an ad on craigslist.

Needed: 1 heavy-hitting MySQL db admin to fix ailing server. In return you will receive loads of snark and an advance copy of the Joanna Newsom album.

Sorry, Nathalie... ^_^

Well, Stan my man, I won’t accept your apologies! NO EFFING WAY!

;-)

It’s like Ballard’s Concrete Island. Give us long enough and we won’t WANT to go back to old-ILx.

i already like this place better!

i dont know. manually scrolling to my unread answers is a lot of work!

I get there automatically! Hmm.

!! do you get the ‘Unread Answers’ thing. i get nothing.

wait, it might be my settings

did you check it on your preferences?

If we start using this board too much though it’s going to break too.

In the New Answers page I don’t get the number of unread messages, but in a thread it takes me straight to unread messages if there are any. Is it a cookies thing or a setting or something?

xpost I can’t remember, I’ll look

Yes—but we’re supposed to test it innit?

This board should have a policy of deleting everything that hasn’t been posted to in a week.

That’s my Pick of The Pops thread had it, then... :-(

Just keep reviving it.

This is the noughties we can’t go thinking about things for weeks on end!

gnu_onimo otm

ok unread answers is working for SOME thread but not others for me.

it was my settings/prefs, btw

It’ll take a while to build the cache if you’ve just changed the setting.

WHY!?!?!

j/k

I tried to change that setting, it just replied “email address already in use”

OF COURSE IT IS, IT’S ME!!!

Is this the right thread for reporting nu-code idiosyncracies? I’ve not really looked around properly.

nucode as run here is pretty much identical to old code, with some patches and things to spot image spam or CSS. the new stuff’s still being worked on

OK. Is that why i for images doesn’t work?

no, I dunno why that’s bust. I’ll check tonight

Is katarina = sunny successor?

She is on the other board, so yes, probably.

different spelling, no?

She’s katarina on MySpace.

Oh yeah, and the eemail is consistent too.

JAYMC, you know too much

RH, YES.

oh, also, JAYMC, theres a thread waiting for you at the fake matador bulletin board. i dont know why.

better?

i want ilx back. i actually spent more than five minutes looking at pitchfork the other day— fucking weird.

I didn’t say to change it! Don’t ever change for me, you’re fabulous, love ya babe! (xpost)

anything for mississippi

I can’t believe that ILX is kaput. Why didn’t we foresee

this??

There’s gotta be a better way. Why didn’t we vote on an

emergency recieving area in case of the apocalypse?

WHY?? Where do we go from here??? Oh the ANGST!!

It was all a big plan to avoid you. Didn’t work.

kiss my ass.

I volunteer to be the guy with the garbage can full of Heineken.

damn. i guess this pretty well quashes my vancouver visit fap thread. if anyone has huck’s email address or if anyone else who saw that thread gets here, drop me a line before next weekend. pleaseandthanks. ok. ok.

Andrew posted this on the Google code group, so there’s only a little tunnel to go before the light or something.

Date: Sat, Sep 2 2006 9:07 am

Have rebooted the machine, repaired all tables, and am now just testing

the thing whilst setting up the slave replication before going live

again.

Andrew rules, by the way.

Now I’m getting this message: ILX is currently down. It is not dead, but we are having server issues. It will be back soon. Sorry!

Much more reassuring than dead, empty “Operation timed out while trying to contact...”

it seems to be UP!

aw, andrew

OLD AND BUSTED ILXOR is already totally inferior to the New ILX Sandbox.

I mean, this place has an Aja/Dante board!

Hmm...it is up, but new answers is still fuXored.

Can I reiterate plea to not use the search function, search via Google if you must.

Or is that fixed now too?

I’m getting...

The board is merely undergoing some maintenance. Back in less than an hour.

...which is nice and reassuring.

All new answers pages are broken again :(

Problem loading page:

Temporary Table Creation Failed (Table ‘natemp’ already exists)

If you think this might mean a problem with the server, Contact the administrator.

Oh, it’s back already. Weird.

It’s done that for me a couple of times, but comes straight back if you refresh the page.

Seems like an improvement.

Is it working now for pps? I can’t get any reply

Nope, “problem loading page”

and now Poxy Fule Agane.

SIC TRANSIT GLORIA POXI

Yes, poxy fule just as Agassi-Becker and Nalbandian-Safin reach their climax and I feel like bantering with the tennis contingent about it. I’d like to think we could stop Becker serving it out with our collective will.

and the old man steps off the stage

:-(

Losing to nu-Boris—what a rotten way to go. Still, better this than “passing on the torch” to Roddick in r4—that would truly make me hurl.

Safin edges Bandy in a 5th-set t/b...

I’m not even getting poxy-fuled or anything now, I’m just getting server not found.

I like to think ILX is saddened at the end of Agassi’s career, but I just suspect someone’s fannying about with the search function again.

i would be in total agreement re Roddick if i didn’t have tickets for tomorrow night. i’m thankful for having seen the Pavel match though.

do you guys watching overseas get to see the ‘I Feel Pretty’ commercial?

It’s half working (half the time you get the New Answers, the other half it’s poxy fule, but this time the error is on line 133)

OKAY I DONT GIVE A SHIT IF THIS DOES NOT BELONG ON THIS THREAD. It’s my thread so I can do whatever I want with it. So I’m gonna post the reply I was going to do on that Blondie thread over on ILX.WH3RD.NET

Since when were Blondie POST-punk?

Ever since she was able to de/inflate her breasts at random.

Some of these pics make me wish I had never had an internet connection. As much as I love Debbie, the ones in which she’s grooving with a guy in pink shorts is just so wrong. Her outfit is just... fugly.

THERE. :-P

Hey, Stan, have you ever been to Soulfood in Ghent? It’s GR34T!

No, I haven’t, where/what is it?

Shit, I can’t remember. :-( I’ll ask my cousin. She knows.

You don’t even remember what it is either? Must be pretty amazing then! :-)

Oh shit, a cellar bar. The music was playing too loud and on crap speakers, but apart from that it was pretty cosy.

poxy grahhh

Cool, I like cellar bars! Thanks, I’ll check it out (I think it’s near the vrijdagsmarkt) !

Roddick-Verdasco into a 5th set! Murray bounces back from 2–1 down to lead with a double-break in the decider vs Gonzalez!

(I like how this has become the thread for conversations on threads not worth restarting in the sandbox).

Cellar bar, the most beautiful phrase of the English language

Free bar, the most beautiful phrase of the English language

poxy pxy pyx

fuck

foxy puck

Hey, I finally found you all.

ilXor.com

Problem loading page:
Board Database Failure
If you think this might mean a problem with the server, Contact the administrator.

I do, but I’m not going to do that.

Admin Database Search Failed

Cache Load Failed

The holy trinity.

It’s actually kind of exciting, following this thing minute to minute, watching the board lumber in and out of death in slow motion technicolor.

I’m getting into ILX OK, but I’m getting timed out and “cannot find server” when I try to post.

load increased by stoners, board rests a while

irritating

you people need to get outside.

Board Database Failure

! That means it can’t even open the list of boards.

Although Andrew was going to have a look at the admin table tonight, so it could be that.

(Alba: look! wrong times here too, heh)

you people need to get outside.

YOU go, I can’t be bothered. Its RAINING out there mang!

oh baby here we go again
