Are We Done Yet?

Stopped in to see if the forum is finished, or if they have completed it...

 

Seems like they forgot to put the page numbers on the bottom of the page so I have to scroll to the top at the end of every page.

 

I guess hiring El Kabong as the lead programmer was not a good idea.

my mobile phone's monthly data useage appears to have been completely used up in the past 3 weeks.the only thing that's changed is me re-joining HCFX.. so i think i'm going to have to bow out.. will probably defer to offset/shortscale forums

I can't view the pedalboard thread or anything else with lots of pics posted in it. Just opens to a blank gray screen. Anyone else have this issue? And having to scroll back to the top of each page to navigate this forum is just about annoying as when TGIH used to post here.

Go to your user settings and change the number of posts per page setting. When it's at default that happens but stops when you change the number to anything else.

We put out brand-new reviews and articles every week - typically about 9 of them.

 

As far as some of the issues we still face, a lot can be traced back to bugs in vB5. Check their support forum - we're not the only board that's having issues with it.

 

Why not use the same forum as TheGearPage? It works.

Mainly because vBulletin is what everyone's been asking for us to use ever since we stopped using it a couple of years ago. We're literally one of the top 16 sites world-wide that's running vB, and the largest one of all using vB5. But all is not lost... they're starting to do some mods to it since vB hasn't been forthcoming with fixes for their bugs.

So for the last 4 months they have been sitting around waiting for an email from V Bulitin?

 

What was the reason it was so slow? How did they fix it?

 

I hope V Bulitin can't simply look at your page source and get your fix for free.

They've put the updates on every forum's landing page instead of just on the main list of forums. You can read their updates there... http://www.harmonycentral.com/forum/forum/guitar/acapella-29

 

And no, they weren't just sitting around for four months. There's plenty of other things they had to do too. They've tried getting vB to fix their own mess. That's really their job... but they've had a few months to do it, and now we have to pay to get it done so that you can have a site that works and meets both your expectations, as well as ours.

 

As far as the reason why it was so slow, as I understand it, vBulletin had done some things to optimize performance for medium sized sites... no one - anywhere in the world - is running vB5 on a larger site than we are... so we got to be the guinea pigs. Turns out that apparently there was some throttling going on and that as well as some of the other aspects that were intended to make things better for medium sized sites apparently slow large sites like ours down. That's the scuttlebutt I heard - take it FWIW.

Dropping back in after a year or so ....

 

Can we get rid of the word filter yet or does this forum have to die? Basically most of the members were lost because it became 10% harder to post porn. So the solution to get those members back was to install a word filter. It'll never work! I just visited a normal forum after spending most of my time on "polite" sites and it was so refreshing! Make this site NORMAL again (emphasize unrestricted speech on the internet is in fact NORMAL) and I will be sure to visit.

 

 

Oh, and .. pedal.

El Kabang'd. I don't know why hc doesn't default to the good old easy to read stable vB. like tgp still uses

 

Phil says HC is the largest website in the world so that's why they use this, and why they are having trouble.

 

All that for 5 remaining members...

Well, I have to use IE on my PC in order to post anything, but that's not a barrier, just a hurdle. We can post pics now, we can update our profiles, avatars, sigs... the site doesn't take forever to load, and they conveniently made the page navigation bar hover on top when you scroll down.

 

I see progress. I'm sticking around.

The forum is far better now but waiting for months before we get the page numbering at the bottom seems unreasonable to me...

 

I've asked that they move that up on the priorities list. Scrolling sux, and I know how many of you want that feature. I do too!
