Didn't you see the email from the site admin? You were banned for a day because of that last post of yours. Dude, everybody saw it coming.

Lots of posts about it earlier today, although I don't know if you'll have access to them. We all stuck up for you, man.

They flint-knapped a new server, and everything is fine, now.

I was just PMing diggity. My mom bought a new toilet seat and I had to install it. I simply chiseled the plastic retaining bolts with a hammer and screwdriver. This brought recriminations of 'We could have saved those for something if you simply undid the nut' from her Depression era values.
I stood up,slipped and PING! the hammer broke the reservoir cover in half.
I'm not sure of vitreous materials right now. :cry:

The site was down due to the host detecting a hack, which has now been remedied. Sorry for the longer than necessary downtime.

I was reduced to reading one of the lesser shave forums yesterday. Which wasn't cricket.

It wasn't you either mate. I thought it was something on my end but other forums worked fine.

I get this message now after I hit the submit button to add a post.

shavemyface.com Forum Index
General Error

Could not insert new word matches

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1016 Can't open file: 'phpbb_search_wordmatch.MYI' (errno: 144)

INSERT INTO phpbb_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) SELECT 485868, word_id, 0 FROM phpbb_search_wordlist WHERE word_text IN ('everytime', 'try', 'add', 'post', 'forum', 'debug', 'mode', 'message', 'hitting', 'submit', 'button', 'takes', 'while', 'show')

Line : 251
File : functions_search.php



It then takes forever if ever for the post to show up. I tried to add a new topic in the feedback forum but it would never show up.

KAV, I agree. I fear our board is somewhat paralyzed. If this post works, it will be the first since yesterday AM.

Many people who were having similar problems posting to a forum running the same software saw an improvement by switching to OpenDNS. It's free, very easy to set up, and makes browsing other site quicker too. Worth a try?

I guess this is happening to everyone...

Well I quess we can survive until our people can unsort things. I know you might miss my thoughtfull posts until then :roll:
So, to show our disdain for the gremlins here is a thread stealing diversion.
A delightfull book is THE EXALTATION OF LARKS by James Lipton.
We need, we deserve a word for a gathering of shaving aficianandos.
I don't know about a grand prize?
Think on it while reading older posts to answer the many arcane and minutae questions we all have.

Knots remind me of dogs, so I think I'll decline to be part of that collective noun!
How about 'a lather of shavers'?
