whoa, a weird error!

[Blueflame]

Since I can't copy the text out of a clipping (way to go, Apple...) here's a link to the error I got while trying to access forums.appleinsider.com

No link any more... I lost the file!

Hope this helps!

[code] Sorry, UBB has encountered an unexpected, fatal error. This error is extremely abnormal. Please contact the board administration. The error text is:

the post was eaten also, but i dont mind, i didnt like what i was going to say anyway :D

Yes. We are unfortunately aware of that kind of error.
Many UBB features are breaking, like search and registration.
Some random posts disappear or get overwritten by other posts.

AppleInsider UBB is dying a slow, painful death. :(

AppleInsider vB will soon arrive and these problems will (read: should) just disappear! :)

I have seen that same error last week - when i copied it and posted it here the post disappeared.

I jsut hope if you have to change the bbs system PLEASE keep something like this. IT's not fast but the macnn boards are gay!!! They are deadly slow - at least to see them with an adsl... and they look graphically gay!!

The graphic look of AI board is sexy. Just find a way to reactivate the registrations etc ...

Holy crap! I'll have to investigate that profile thing... it seems a field has been removed and all data shifted up a spot.

There are also dragons. Lots or dragons.

We're even working on an official intro movie for AppleInsider. Here's a very rough cut of the first few seconds (no audio yet).

I was very excited about the link, Brad, but, alas, it did not work for me :(

Is the dragon/are the dragons straight?

Here is a mirror in case project-think isn't working:

holy shit, batman! it's the dreaded clan of the gay dragons!

ps. ponder this, young grasshopper. if there's no air in space, how come the flag is waving?

The handiwork of yours truly (not the movie). Dragons are an under-utilized web resource.

And the background isn't gay dragon pride, it's old-school Apple stripes. I can see how you would be confused. ;)

I'm working on the OU Sucks dragon as you read this. :p

[groverat]

Done!

1) Those are weak.

2) You guys have won three in a row and have a much better head coach (which guarantees future success). Let me have my fun. :)
