[Question] So, what'd I do to get banned?

[Tinwhistlerxx]

Tinwhistler here. Question for Dave

I'm getting a "you don't have permission to enter the forums" kind of message. I get banned or something?

 

[also banned]

Vrii is also banned from everything!

 

[Dave]

ARGH!!

 

[BananaHands]

DAVE ANGRY.

 

[Hylian]

Shall I make an offering to our amazing and all powerful leader Dave so his anger does not decide to rest upon my loyal and weary shoulders?

 

[Terrik]

Maybe Dave is angry because he forgot to turn off anonymous posting and prevented the Purge from being quiet and inconspicuous.

 

[BananaHands]

"Execute Order 66."

 

[Vrii]

Fixed for me.

 

[Dave]

Fixed for me.

Yeah not sure what happened there. Still don't think it's quite fixed yet.

I'll alert the goat herder.

You're not banned, it's just that everyone needs to answer a question before they can post. And the question is:

What is delicious?

 

[blotsfan]

I didn't get banned, but I got logged off. Logging back on worked though.

 

[wana101]

I seem to be locked out as well.

 

[TommiR1]

TommiR here, I'm locked out, too.

 

[Face Hugger]

Tress here. I've been locked out too. Logging in and out did not fix the problem.

It's a valid avenue of inquiry. What does it mean to be delicious? Can something untasteable possess some some flavor that is metatastual? Could, then, an idea be delicious?

If that idea is Cinnamon buns, then yes.

 

[gargoyle_eva]

Saw thread title , entered expected lulzy wtf, y u ban me for thread. Exited disapointed at the lack of drama.

 

[Dave]

Tress, Wana & Tommi should be fixed. Wish I knew how to do a mass fix on this.

 

[Thread Necromancer2]

banned....

 

[Adam]

banned....

No no, that one was on purpose.

 

[sixpackshaker]

Test, this is only a test, of the halforums' emergency response system... proceed with the panicking

 

[sixpackshaker]

I guess it got fixed.

 

[TommiR]

Tress, Wana & Tommi should be fixed. Wish I knew how to do a mass fix on this.

Thank you, works fine for me again.

 

[Thread Necromancer2]

yes... still banned.
On purpose? maybe, but mark my words, Your souls are mine and i will always haunt your threads.

 

[Dave]

Sorry, Thread Necro! I totally missed your post. You should be fixed.

 

[Dave]

Have you noticed everyone having issues starts with the letter "T" or later? It's like it wasn't anything I did but the database didn't completely update or timed out.

 

[Dave]

Letter T or later. As in T-U-V-...

 

[Dave]

I-D-K. U?

 

[Adam]

Letter T or later. As in T-U-V-...

I'd suspect that the usernames are stored in the database using a unique member ID and not alphabetically. ThatNickGuy, Terrik, have not been banned etc. etc.

 

[fade]

"Execute Order 66."

Does it look like this Clone Trooper is working a turntable, or is it just me?

 

[Dave]

We don't know about Nick, but Terrik still comes before the others who have reached out to me alphabetically. The query I ran was looking at user names and the groups to which they belonged. So I really think it's that the DB timed out or something. And looking at the server logs there was an issue during that time.

 

[Adam]

Well, that's interesting then because I haven't seen anyone whose names come later than TE appear on the connected members list all day. So, it's quite possible.

 

[PatrThom]

You're not banned, it's just that everyone needs to answer a question before they can post. And the question is:

Steak?

[sixpackshaker]

Steak?

--Patrick

Only if you cook it thoroughly.
