I'm noticing that alot of the "most recent posts" all got posted 11 days ago... does this have anything to do with being unable to connect to Seibertron last night?

I think that's a given.

Looks like somebody pressed a button they shoudn't have... :P

More likely it's a continuation of trying to get everything working again from the merger and the site had to be reset.

Sucks to lose stuff. :?

one persons love,is another's hatred....but nice to hear from you both non the less.

glade to have the forums back,i see more goodies are in place,they just need to get the kinks out,and re-apply data in some areas,and get the kinks out of the new board setup. done it a few times myself,if sibes has help with the adding of content it may go faster,but i am sure it will all work out in the end. and a humble thanks for the speedy recovery of the forum,it takes time i know.

Why would anyone notice a tiny thing like that?

In other news, today is the 4th anniversary of me joining the site :O

Apparently.

Perhaps you should try stepping out of the HMW forums and trying some of the other forums on Seibertron? Maybe you'll find something more insightful there?

i did, but i found people arguing over whether sam's pearants where in on it at the end of the movie, what the best toys from RiD where, whether animated megatron has no hands, whether some dude shouldn't have sold his kids kids xmas presents online, some dude trying to organise a kitbashing competition that didn't require any glue. and some fat appreciation thread, that i was gonna post in but realised that life's too short, especially if you're fat.

how was the midori?

Didn't get to it.

Too busy suffering from the heat and watching Die Hard 4.0, followed by Black Sheep.

I heartily recommend Black Sheep .... to be avoided!

All correct except for one minor detail.

It was made and set in New Zealand. Not Australia.

We would have done it right.

Good concept, piss poor execution.

Haven't seen it, but on to the original topic, it looks like Ryan must've been working on something that caused the databases to crash. He must've restored this from a backup. On the plus side, since HMW was down for most of the time since it happened, we didn't lose a heckuvalot.

Erm, if it was in the fan-fiction and artwork forum it could have been me, and as for things posted in the last few days, I posted half of this story I am currently writing.(I realised that there was so much happening that my story kept getting lost or postponed so I figure, what the heck, I'll focus on drawing.)

Nah, it's set in new zealand, and is like a cross between a zombie movie, a wearwolf movie, and a mobive about sheep.
I liked it... even if it did use horendously outdated puppetry for some its effects.

And there were a few interesting topics I was partaking in, and it is slightly annoying to utterly loose all of them.

Darkmount is once again there for all to see (though it's easier to post again), the pictures are still all cropped dispite (at least on my screen with my resolution) there being a good 5th of the screen with nothing but BG, and once again we;ve had to redo our sigs n avvies n **** AGAIN.

Oh... And HMW is still down...

So yeah, not a vast improvment, all in all.

board resets and HMW resets do not go hand in hand
