I tried to contact Seibertron aka Ryan about this at least 3-6 times and I have not even once gotten an email response. I haven't been able to post since July because of this ongoing aggravation.

My old ID is Hot_Rod and I'd very much like that account back please. It's how everybody knows me.

I miss being apart of this community. :-(

And if anybody knows the punctuation codes to make Hot_Rod look appear like Hot Rod, let me know because right after the movie it was altered to that with a PM tip from a certain member who shall remain nameless unless they feel free to speak about it.

Somebody, please help. :?


Hot_Rod does not exist

The requested user does not exist.


Hot Rod does and it's email does not match yours. Are you using the same email?

Oh oh, my turn.

I decided to turn on that feature that alerts you every time a thread you post in gets a reply? Decided I didn't like it too much. Turned it off, but I still get the alerts.

I'd be a little more tolerant if these alerts weren't a fair while AFTER the reply was sent and I'd already read it anyway.

But yeah. They wont go away and they're clogging my inbox... sup with that?

I will have to look at that as that may be something that only you can do.
Let me look.

Oh, and something else:

The 'Forums' tab above the list of forums on the left? Clicking that should bring up the forums complete forums list, I believe. But when I click it I get the following error message

phpBB : Critical Error

Could not obtain lastvisit data from user table

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1146 Table 'seibert_site.users' doesn't exist

SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_id = -1

Yeah, the forum is all wonky right now for me, too. I hope someone is in the middle of fixing it or something... otherwise we're in deep doo-doo! ;)

Indeed, the forums are all messed up and the pages are a dull gray color with all of the topic links smashed together off to the right side of the page...I'm on windows XP if that matters and using Firefox...my system is completely updated.

I'm seeing member info running away from the right side of their post, if it's a short post (like your post above this, Muffin). It's appearing on the left side underneath the message.

I'm also running WinXP, Firefox.

One other thing I've noticed is that some of the smilies when you choose one the one that appears in the post is not the one you clicked on...others have posted this I think to but I'm not sure if it was here but in other threads...less important than the other problems that need to be fixed but well...there you have it. :)

yes with the smilies I specifically want the "thinking" one. It shows up as the "confused" one.

It seems that it's only possible to include three quotes in a message. Was this modification meant to be in place? I find it cumbersome to cut and paste people's messages to work within the parameters. Is it possible to make the number of quotes unlimited?

It was possible to build a quote-pyramids, but some people used it too much and so the number was reduced to three.

I was just about to report this. Currently, the link for the forum index used almost everywhere is:

index.php

But on the Forums tab to the left of the pages, under Site Navigation, its link is:

http://www.seibertron.com/forums/index.php

It's still using the old forum index link, not the current one.

Ok, so with the new Toy Fair photos, I'm browsing through the galleries.

Now it says, for example, there are 205 photos in the section for TF Animated. Well when I click next, it still shows the exact same 25 photos.

It does this for all the Toy Fair galleries for me. So I'm not entirely sure if the number is off and theres only 25 photos or what not, or if there are more and something is screwed up on either my end or the sites.

The picture gallery links are partially dead. Any link that says next 25 or end does not work and the gallery says 1 of 208. I've tried this on the other forums. Can this be fixed so we can view the other galleries?

Is this whole clipped image thing on these boards going to be permenent?

There's not much sense in permitting 500 pixel wide sigs that are going to be clipped off.

I find I'm forced to come here less often lately because, no matter what the statistics at the bottom claim, pages take a long time to fully display. Which I could actually live with, if my browser didn't become frozen/stalled the whole time until they do. It happens to some extent no matter which browser I use (IE, Firefox, or Opera), so it's kind of frustrating. :/

So it's not just the fact that my computer is running Vista....

This happens to me as well.

Definitely not just Vista... I'm still on Windows 98 at home, and my work computer runs Windows XP, so... yes. It's something odd with this site. The only other sites I sometimes have similar problems with are very image-heavy galleries and the like; I can't think of any other forums off-hand.

So what kind of setup are you guys running for your computers? I'm only slow on the site when the server is having troubles and it takes about 5 minutes. Regular days though I've got the pages up in less than a second.

You mean in terms of hardware? At home I've got 512MB of RAM, a 700MHz Duron processor, GeForce 2 MX 400 video card, 3360 KBits/Sec DSL connection. Seeing as how I'm running Windows 98 and don't have resource hogs running in the background, that really should be more than enough to display a website without issues. (And as I said, this is one of the very few sites I have any problems with.)

I have no idea what my work computer is off-hand, but I know it's at least not an old clunker.

Well I should note that processor speed does have an impact on internet browsing. It seems especially with websites containing flash like the banners on here. Moms computer for instance, loads this site incredibly slow and it is running on a 933mhz Intel. Mine however is running on a 2.4ghz quad and it destroys average load times.

I keep flash and plugins turned off unless I need them, so I know that at least isn't the problem.

...eesh. I mean... it's a website. Unless the website is running some whizbang multimedia extravaganza web spectacle or something, you really should not need a 2.4GHz processor just to get a good load time on it. Especially not for forums.

I could understand if I was running something old like a P2 or what have you, but... come on. :P
