Online Gooner Server Upgrade

Rob Admin · Post by **Rob Admin** » Sat Sep 29, 2007 9:23 pm

Hi guys,

I'm just looking for some brief feedback regarding the recent upgrade to the Webserver which hosts The Online Gooner Website & Forum.

Hopefully there is a noticeable speed improvement and the repeat postings problem has been irradiated.

Any feedback would be appreciated, I know some posts were lost during the swap over buy aside form that please let us know.

Many thanks,

Rob.

Hello mate!

One small problem I have noticed is...

If you do a second post to quick you get the "you cannot so another post.....etc" page.

Before you could simply click back to the post writing page and all you had written was there. However now when you do a post too quick you go back and all you have typed is gone!

Minor fault which I have found but solved with copy paste but the first time it happened I had written a novel so was a tad annoying!

Cheers

Thanks for the feedback.

Basically I think before upgrading the server was so slow that you were able to click back before the new post had been submitted and processed. The new server is so fast that now by the time you go back it has been processed.

However, perhaps we can decrease the time between posts. This is a setting designed to stop people from flooding the board and abusing the community. For example kids or rival fans who may join and post rubbish just to p+ss us all off.

Let me take a look and let you know.

Thanks,

Rob.

The directory which stores the avatar images was not write enabled. Consequently when you tried to upload an image it was not successfully writing to the server.

The permissions have now been changed and you can upload your avatars without problems.

Thanks,

Rob.

Great new speed but please sort this out

You cannot make another post so soon after your last; please try again in a short while

This is so bloody annoying

I haven't got a magic hat but missus Wayno says that I have a very special helmet

No she just says your very special!

Truth is she doesn't say anything, she mute, great you might think but she signs using a credit card. Im not sure if she is happy or sad but according to the credit card bill she wont shut the fuck up

Well the girl has to get some pleasure somewhere somehow!

Did you really think that Big Dave's Hot Dog Shack was a restaurant?

I went there once but the prices were too expensive

Love the speed of the new server and thanks for fixing the problems already mentioned in this thread.
