The odd thing about the attack was that, like, on the index, it showed the recent posts and stuff. Just, the boards were all empty! Crazy.

I am not having a problem staying logged in, but I do note that the "<<First" and "Last>>" links in the threads (this thread, anyway) point back to the home page.

Oh, and seconded about getting a different theme... My eyes!



Which <> links... the ones in the bottom right, that take you forward or back one page in the thread?

The ones that take you to the first and last pages, although it must have been a temporary glitch or something, since it's fine now.

Also, this theme is decidedly non-mobile friendly. 😞

I'm using Firefox 3.6 beta 4. No problems with every other site, only AGN doesn't remember when I leave the site and come back.

edit a post, the quick edit box is placed very low. I also reported that a while back today, pkmnfrk.

This button (first picture) on threads, takes you to either a random page beyond what is actually available (like page 13 in a 3 page thread) or the forum index.

The 2nd picture shows how the "quick edit" appears to me, it may be a bug in Firefox 3.6 beta 4 though and not in the stable 3.5 versions.

edit: the forum resizes attachments images, kinda gay.

Has the main site content been tampered with? As in, the game reviews? Also, has premium membership been erased? I had about 4-5 months left, and it would suck if it was deleted.

EDIT: Quick edit works fine for me. Really, my only gripe is the content deletion...

Why do I get the feeling it might've been Glenn again?

Well, thanks for bringing it back up. Hope the forums can still be restored...

I'm running Firefox 3.5.5, and it looks the same.

Also, I redact my previous statements about 1. The Last>> button being fixed, and 2. Not having problems staying logged in. Both are problematic.

1) There's 4 pages yet this only shows 3 at most. (see attached pic) When logged in it shows none since my preferences are set to 40 posts per page.

2) If not logged in and you click "reply" in the bottom left after reading a thread, after you login the last posters message will be quoted.

3) This post is post #0? when making a new post the post # will be 0 until you refresh.

hmmmm...
Ya mean because I download and keep all the betas in a folder that it automatically makes me suspect to being a hacker?

okay, I'll play, I think FRANPA DONE IT since he is trying to smoke the attention off himself by accusing me.
AND because his mom dresses him funny and she wears combat boots and my dad can beat up his dad.

and I STILL HAVE most of the betas, if they were lost, in case anyone needs them.

;O)

Spamming/advertising has become a noticeable problem as of late. It seems that the image verification on the registration page is failing, or real people are posting the spam.

Oh, sorry Freedom, the new theme er, messes up what I was thinking you were saying >.>" we need the old original AGN theme back :P (the one before the mario bros theme came)

Quick edit, I just click it (on one of my posts) after entering a thread and this is what I see. The forum software is clipping the right edge, but you can see the quick edit box is placed too low right?

Elise had this problem with her board a while back, she said the smilies caused it.
I didn't know that, and fixed it for myself under settings and the editor display.
mine works right here, and is set on standard
they are located all the way in the bottom and you have 3 choices
Settings>edit options> at the bottom of the page

The SE dev boards completely disappeared on my end as well. The group membership is still there, just not the boards.

Me too.

On another note, clearing just the AGN cookies fixed the login for me. Didn't have to erase them all. Other than that and the edit box, I don't see too much going totally wrong at this point.

Not sure if it's my browser or not, but thought I'd mention it anyway; The search box kinda gets clipped off the side on the top of the page.

edit: Looks like it only happens when viewing a thread.

Sweet, the stars are back. Also, the QDB CP is a little bit glitched. You can't add or edit/delete a quest:

Warning: chdir() [function.chdir]: No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/armaged/public_html/zeldaclassic/admincp/addquest.php on line 6

Warning: require_once(global.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/armaged/public_html/zeldaclassic/admincp/addquest.php on line 7

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'global.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php'😉 in /home/armaged/public_html/zeldaclassic/admincp/addquest.php on line 7

UPDATE: It looks like the edit box problem (I'm also seeing it sometimes when giving reputation) is some bug buried deep in the vBulletin CSS. I'm going to give up for now and wait for them to patch it... sorry guys. 😞 As Freedom mentioned, you can disable floating quick reply in your User CP as a workaround.

I'm still looking into the default forum thread order, as it's truly annoying.
