ATTN: Server Migration Complete

[Jacck 23]

Hi Guys,

The server migration is now complete. If you're seeing this message, that means you're now seeing JWFan hosted from the new server.

Please use this thread to report any teething issues. I'm aware that the front page content isn't showing at the moment, and I'm looking at ways to fix that. Fixed

Cheers!

[King Mark 3,631]

that was quick!

[Demondm810 399]

Awesome job.

[Jacck 23]

Pretty seamless it seems!

Sooo.. are there any changes anyone's been waiting a while for while I'm here?

[King Mark 3,631]

Well there seems to be a certain rule which seems to have been removed

if that's the case good riddance

[Datameister 2,042]

Those were the most painful few hours of my life! Seriously, though, I'm glad things are up and running so quickly.

That was smooth, well done!

There's one feature that I'd like to see re-installed: export one's private messages to hmtl or whatever format. No worries if that's not possible, of course.

[Datameister 2,042]

I was gonna say the same thing. I really would like to be able to automatically download my PM conversations in one big .txt document so my inbox is no longer on the perpetual verge of being full.

[Kendal_Ozzel 36]

We're back already? Cool. :cool:

I believe some thanks are in order. To Andreas, for his many years hosting. And to Jack, for stepping up to the plate. You guys rock!

Why don't we just cut off the problem by increasing the inbox sizes? There's no reason why they should be so ridiculously small - they use up next to no space.. unless I'm missing something?

[King Mark 3,631]

yes,it's annoying to empty them all the time

[Koray Savas 2,251]

I noticed a new emoticon there. Pretty neat.

[Jacck 23]

I've increased inbox sizes to 2000 messages.

[King Mark 3,631]

checks new emoticon

[fommes 153]

I've increased inbox sizes to 2000 messages.

Wow. Thanks!

[Andy 4,123]

Nicely done, guys! Thank you!

[Henry B 50]

Awesome! Thank you for stepping up, Jack.

[Joe Brausam 214]

Thanks for saving the site!

[Jay 37,351]

Awesome job increasing inbox size, I've always wondered why it was so small myself! Yay!

Great work with everything else as too, Jack!

Cheers!

[Datameister 2,042]

I've increased inbox sizes to 2000 messages.

That is freakin' AWESOME! Thank you so much!

[Trent B 337]

Increased message in-box's? Nice! Glad the transition went smoothly.

Mega dittos.

[Faleel 5,346]

it says i cant send a PM until 07 December?

[Datameister 2,042]

Well, I got your PM, Faleel, so it must be lying to ya.

[Jay 37,351]

Ooooh, I have a request!

Can we get a thumbs up icon that mirrors the thumb down icon? Sometimes I just want to give someone a thumbs up, and the winky-faced thumbs up we have isn't exactly appropriate. Does anyone else know what I mean?

[Koray Savas 2,251]

?

I was a little surprised by the ONE new emoticon.

At first I was like "Ooh, let's see what we have." And then that was it

[ChrisAfonso 186]

Nice work! Seems to be runnding smoothly All the best for running this site, Jack.

And not to forget, many thanks to Andreas for keeping this place up and running for the last decade!

Hm, it seems the "go" Button next to the forum selection box at the bottom of threads is missing? I can go to other subforums by choosing them in the dropdown box, but can'T get back to the General Discussion page without scrolling to the top of the page again...

[Koray Savas 2,251]

Many great thanks to Ricard and Andreas for running this site over the years, and a big thank you to Jack Chapple for taking over and preventing us from losing our minds over at FSM.

[Ollie 1,059]

I see the top twenty posters error has been fixed. It no longer goes to messages.

A huge thanks to Jack for taking this on and another huge thanks for all the work Andreas has done.

[Jay 37,351]

Ooooh yea the Members tab now works, yay!

I see I'm the person with the 22nd most posts on the board. Henry Buck, I'm coming for you next!

[BLUMENKOHL 1,068]

I sent you a list of visual "bugs" (to bug you), Jack.

[John Crichton 4]

Woo hoo, top 10! That and the little green tag under my name make all the years of toil worthwhile.

Thanks for taking things over Jack, and I also want to send a huge thank you to Andreas for all the hard work that he put into the board and the site, often under great financial pressure. This place would have vanished a long time ago if it wasn't for him.

[Koray Savas 2,251]

I'm only 1,000 posts away from the Top 3. This board shall be mine!

[indy4 155]

Thanks to Andreas and Jack!

[Quintus 5,399]

Excellent work Jack, thank you.

And thank you to Andreas and the others. Good luck and all the best.

[Luke Skywalker 1,795]

Thanks Jack for supporting the site, and thanks Andreas for all the years prior!

[Charlie Brigden 7]

Thanks Jack for supporting the site, and thanks Andreas for all the years prior!

I echo this. Great work, folks.

[fommes 153]

Hear, hear. Thanks very much, Andreas!

[Richard Penna 3,686]

Nice job Jack! (and Andreas, for all your work so far).

[Marian Schedenig 8,192]

Awesome! Ten thumbs up!

[Nemesis 245]

Thanks Andreas for all in the last years.

And thanks Jack for helping it going on

[Quintus 5,399]

Hey Jack, when you get a moment, would you consider adding a small update which would make mobile viewing a VASTLY superior experience to the bare-bones functionality we have now? On Apple's App Store there's an app called 'Tapatalk Forum App', check it out - it allows users to have a far better, less fiddly experience when visiting their favourite forums. In order for it to work just a small script would be added by yourself, it's quick and seamless and would indeed be a very useful upgrade for posters like me.

Have a look, see what you think: http://www.tapatalk.com/

Cheers.

Thanks Andreas, thanks Jack! :cool:

Nice suggestion! Just installed it and tried it out.. working great.

[Jay 37,351]

nice!

Any chance we can get a : up: smiley to go along with the : down : smiley?

Instead our only options are and

[Koray Savas 2,251]

How about we just get a whole bunch of random emoticons, instead of making single requests?

[Jacck 23]

New emotes added.

, etc...
