Re: Extended scheduled downtime tomorrow
I get lost if it were this board's time, I only use it to know when downtime is in the mornings. LOL
That time you stated Lesa is the main time when all the weird things happen at my board as well, and everyone is affected, since a bunch of us are on yahoo messenger and almost simaltaneously start complaining when something happens.

Re: Extended scheduled downtime tomorrow
Yeah, Erika, it was fun, wasn't it?
Jason, can you make a list of all the weird things that happen between 3pm and 4:30pm "this board's time"?

Re: Extended scheduled downtime tomorrow
Sure thing, and also for you Thor, I am not going to list the places where it has occurred because it has done this in most of the forums at the board, not sure about 2 of them because we have not been in them during the Bugginess.
1)When we send a reply, it cuts to the Error screen.
2)When Karma is being given, it cuts to the Error Screen.
3)Posts seem to multiply themselves at periodic times, though this has only happened once or twice, exact locations are buried deep within the topics they happened in by now, so I am sorry.
4)This may be due to the user, but considering it is near impossible to make this mistake on my board, which I honestly do not even think we have one, but some of us tend to get logged out of our Runboard accounts at this time of the morning/night.
5)When a new topic is created at times, it sometimes goes to the error screen.
Now not all of these are consistent, but every night during this said time period, we get server errors when we are replying to posts. And it is not just a refreshable thing either, it does it maybe 5 or 6 times still, forcing me, and others to just manually enter the boards url to even get back, and even then the error will still pop up.
That's the jist of it Lesa.

Re: Extended scheduled downtime tomorrow
Demonic: what time of night are you referring to? Are you saying that every night at a particular time, errors are happening more often? If yes, please tell me what time of night it is - in GMT time as I have no idea where you are. http://www.timezoneconverter.com/ to convert to GMT.
Thanks

Re: Extended scheduled downtime tomorrow
Thanks, Jason.
Here's a summary of the last few pages, Thor.
The time span is somewhere between 3:00pm and 4:30pm GMT (this board's time). It could be narrower by a few minutes or could happen for longer, but this hour and a half seems like a surety.
The thing that got it started was when I saw this post that was made at 3:12pm GMT on March 30, then duplicated 59 minutes later at 4:11pm. Unfortunately, Billy doesn't know if he came back after an hour and refreshed the page not, but either the post duplicated itself, or the page hung at 3:12 when he initially made the post. Either way, there was a problem at that time.
On this same day, Erika made a change to her post icons somewhere between 3:20pm and 3:30pm GMT, and about an hour after that they all duplicated themselves. When she said an hour, a light bulb went off in my head and I thought the two might be related (I hadn't received Billy's reply yet as to whether he had refreshed or not). I took a screen grab of the post icon duplication, which you can see here.
That's when Jason (Demonic) said a lot of weirdness occurs during this time frame, the details of which you just read.

Re: Extended scheduled downtime tomorrow
Lesa is correct, that is the exact time frame when the weirdness shows up, and in truth, it is pretty much the ONLY time we encounter them is during that time frame.
