Zimbolt?

So a guy on TinyChan had Offerd up some some hosting and Nega told me about it so that guy and me are talking about what his hosting is like via email.
This could be good. If its his own machine that he is running the server from than it would be easy him to modify the htaccess files or whatever to get TinyBBS running on it.
On the other hand there is no way to carry over any current topics and IDs. I realize that IDs don't really matter in ATBBS 1.0 but the topics mean a lot.
But even if we DO have to forgo the topics, it not like it would be hard to start them again, so its really not that bad once you think about it.
For those of you who don't know what TinyBBS is like, go here. Its the main site, click "demo" to try it out.

In other news I have not heard from host guy at all since the last post here about him getting hurt. I know he was on a lot of medication but I'm kinda worried.

Tweaks.

I changed the image file size limit to 2mbs and made thumbnails a little bigger. I've been unable to find a host that is A: not a faggot and B: will work with our software.
The first host would have been great but they made certain htaccess stuff not allowed so the software would not work on it. And HostGuy and Whoreos were unable to setup the software on another one.
I've been looking around and come up with nothing. I'm getting sick of promising new software and not being able to go through with it just because we can't find a better host.
So I'm going to see about setting up the new software on our normal byethost account. Even if the board is still worksafe and we still have to watch out for the taboo words, I may still be able to give you guys the new software.
Though I doubt we would be able to keep all the old threads...we would probably have to reformat the whole database and start from scratch.

I want this to be a community decision, what do you guys think?

HostGuy hurt himself!

Email from HostGuy:

"So I broke my wrist in a bike crash into a car last saturday, and im kind of still loopy (just got back from the hospital) when i get off of the vicodin and my wrist repairs I will continue to work on the project. sory.
-lyecv"

My reply:

"Holy shit dude! I'm sorry! Is it bad? How did you crash into the car?

Also, is it bad that I lol'd at how your typing gets progressively gets worse towards the end of your message?"


I'm a horrible person. ><;

Idea

Something that bugs me, and could bother other people the fact that in really long threads (like the RP thread) it can end up taking forever to scroll back up to the top to go back to, and refresh, the homepage. I think in the new software I'll put a link back to the homepage at the bottom of every thread page. What do you guys think?

OT2 Update

All needed files have been succseffuly uploaded and almost all of them have been rewritten/customized to fit OT as well. The old CSS will need to be changed to work with new makup syntax features. The FaQ and Rules page you guys currently see will be carried over, only changed a bit to say this hentai is allowed and SEAA!!! PEAA!!! is not. At the moment only the front page works. Everything else 404's on us.
Well, back to work!

Oh yeah, hey Tkun, thanks for the favicon. :) After everythings working I will go about animating it like the way another Anon in the favicon thread suggested.
Bye~

I'm not dead.

Just busy. Work is going forward. Theres Some database info I need that I'm waiting on our host guy to email me back about. I guess that's just what I'll call him now, since I can't use his real name obviously. HostGuy. Thats your name now.

Shitty host is shitty.

Well wtf is this shit? I have no idea whats going on, but I'm not 100% sure it has to do with our host this time. I'm not even sure why this would happen. Its not like we own that domain and forgot to play the bill. Its a sub-domain on byethost...

Also other byethost *talks are still up.
?
I can't wait till we move.
[Edit]
Well its back up. That was odd. Turns out all byethost sites under the byethost13 sub-domain went down, not just us, but other sub-domains like byethost8 were just fine.
