Forum Discussion v5 - Imagine if you used Ignore List. - General

[QUOTE=Quark:;52913461]It's actually pretty hard to make a dummy Gmail account now.. You need a valid cellphone / landline number to verify, via text / call, your account before you're allowed to use it, and the phone number you use to verify cannot be in use by another GMail account. You also cannot use a Google Voice number to verify an account.[/QUOTE] I make new email accounts for catching spam all the time through gmail

[QUOTE=Kiwi;52909776]Could you imagine how much i'd have if FT posts was counted? IMO. [B]Join date and posts should have more effect.[/B] Combine all of my accounts(2) I'd have about 56K post and being from originally 2009 but since I merged my 2011 account I got this instead, which isn't too bad but isn't too great either. [t]https://chie.club/files/images/st/57040bd6-bce7-401e-9a31-6efc9090dab9.png[/t] This probably isn't the final count or anything and it's still very WIP. tl;dr more coins for earlier join dates and more posts, it's getting there but not close enough[/QUOTE] FT posts definitely count, but the migration gives less coins per post after a certain threshold, or you hit some sort of cap. [editline]21st November 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Killer monkey;52913503]Neither of those work [t]https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/270073802199793668/382689881714982912/unknown.png[/t] Its been "temporarily" unavailable for like 72 hours at least.[/QUOTE] Register for an account first, then visit the migration page. While logged in, it works 100% of the time. In an incognito window, it always returns error 404. [editline]21st November 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Crazy Knife;52913455]Sounds like a good temporary solution. How long do you guys project the shift to the new forums version will take?[/QUOTE] roadmap tentatively says "Move Entire Forum - Move all users, threads and posts to the new system. Take old system offline." under future - second half of 2018

Forum is currently dying a painful death with all these 502's and 503's and Database errors.

Oh god it's nothing but 503s every minute. Someone evacuate the children.

Is it over?

Fuck the children. Every man for himself!

oh god dont leave me facepunch

i'm actually panicking at 5:41 am and i haven't slept yet don't leave me..

[QUOTE=jordguitar;52913625]Fuck the children. Every man for himself![/QUOTE] Whooa watch your wording... :v:

everything is fine now if I can get it to work anyone probably can because I can't usually get it to work on a normal day

What happened?

If we only knew.

Baby pls don't leave me again

the forums have stabilized, for now. do what you need to while you can, we don't know how long we can hold it

There's a thing on 4chan where guys post 'I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONE FOR REAL THIS TIME' along with the picture of a crying anime girl whenever the site goes down and no joke that's what I felt for real during the downtime

The Refugee's Camp still doesn't work :thinking: I swear guys I'm doing this out of pure altruism, this is a dangerous lack of forum functionality that could jeopardize the integrity of this website!! :vs:

[QUOTE=LoadingueAlt;52913701]The Refugee's Camp still doesn't work :thinking: I swear guys I'm doing this out of pure altruism, this is a dangerous lack of forum functionality that could jeopardize the integrity of this website!! :vs:[/QUOTE] Refugee Camp is a no-go zone for poor innocent blues. Users who are banned can post there to plead for reduced ban sentence and communicate directly with mods. Gold users can also view the Refugee Camp, although posting and rating was disabled years ago.

[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;52913708]Gold users can also view the Refugee Camp, although posting and rating was disabled years ago.[/QUOTE] i wish they never disabled golds being able to post in it. it was always fun to see someone take the permaban by posting in someone's RC thread

RC has no place on newpunch. Gulag, however... mine coins for moderators...

Thanks for fixing my title Hezzy, love ya

[QUOTE=highvoltage;52913360]Google already knows what sites you visit and what accounts are yours, unless you post from various VPNs or other evasive measures[/QUOTE] Doesn't mean I'd like to make it worse. Also noscript and various aggressive adblockers. Just accept that some like to fight tooth and nail for privacy from big data corporations instead of being pushovers.

[QUOTE=LoadingueAlt;52913711]Yeah I just checked with my main, banned account, it still doesn't work for me.[/QUOTE] Nah it works just fine

If it's just me, I guess I'll contact postal directly then. Big mistake or big mistake?

So uh, what happened. I couldn't get on here pretty much all day.

Haven't imgur been removing embedded images for a while now? Probably a good idea to consider a new image host for titles at least

[QUOTE=PredGD;52913769]Haven't imgur been removing embedded images for a while now? Probably a good idea to consider a new image host for titles at least[/QUOTE] It was so good for so long, how unfortunate. I think I'd be fine with removing the img link and just putting maybe a shadow on my text cause it's not worth the hassle making sure the image host goes down. that or use a redirectable link for the image, but I think that's against the rules on titles.

[QUOTE=xxfalconxx;52913744]So uh, what happened. I couldn't get on here pretty much all day.[/QUOTE] it is speculated by some that the migration of posts from this incarnation of facepunch to neo-facepunch 2017 was essentially DDOSing the site

I honestly don't see people's issue with the new forums, I really like how they look and more importantly function. I know it's change, but it's good change, bliming heck people.
