Welcome home Sir. Your participation around here left a hole few could fill.

As to the topic: (and I have no clue how to remedy this) I have until tonight been forced to use truck stop computer terminals to post here. In a nutshell, its just this side of impossible.

For starters, most have a sort of popup blocker. Part of Snarkpit has those popup screens (IE the PM system) and its impossible to check them cause they refuse to show up.

Secondly, there are some java errors that are present. I cannot recall what, but they are reported none the less.

Thirdly, the server/host you have, is still causing issues at times with slowness of pages and whatnot.

Thats about it at present.

Again.... Welcome home.
XXXOOOXXX

But this thread loads waaaay to slow, so check out the new one.

Funny that you'd post a bug in parting and seem unaware of the plight. There must be a way to have older threads load faster. Why does all the pages have to be there? I mean, if you want to scan back through them its your decision to wait but if you've been around for the whole correspondence, why shouldn't only the most recent pages be accessed by the database retrieval system?

This thread seems to have completely disappeared:
www.snarkpit.net/forums.php?forum=1&topic=7348

I also suspect at least one of the HL2 editing threads has disappeared, but I don't remember what used to be there.

Is anyone else seeing this error on the front page? (I would assume so, of course)

Correct. He has been "disposed of"

I can't open the second page of "Random Though" thread. Is this a side effect of Freemans disappearance or something else?

Yes it seems any threads he posted in are busted, crashing back to the forum list.

Whatever happened to just banning people, instead of deleting their accounts and completely destroying the structure of the forums? Just restore his account from the backup (we do have backups, don't we?), ban him, and everything will be fixed.

"completely destroying the forums" is a bit of an overstep. I used an admin function to clean out his diatribe, it didn't synch quite as expected, for all of - ooh - 3 threads? Shalll I telephone the security council or will you?

And no backups arent used here, nor for the majority of SQL based boards.

We need a sticky thread that we all can use to inform others when/where/which game, we are playing on at any specific time.

I am sure that I am not alone in saying that my online frag time is extremely limited. It would be nice to have a fragging thread to reply in, without the need to create a new thread each time.

Opinions anyone?

Did they fix the steam friends thingy? Last I heard, admittedly it was ages ago, it was borked.

I'd love to be able to seek out friends without seemingly to plead for players to join me in a frag. (Hmm, that didn't come out the way I had meant it to)

So remind me. Do I post my contact email for this? Or my account name?

To be honest Im not sure, when I created a steam account it used the email address as the user name, now it seems to have changed to an 'account name'.

So for me people would add my email, but it seems for newer accounts you use the account name.

(I hope that made sense :S)
