Is the mini-chat thing at the top of the home page permanent? Any way I can minimize it so I don't have to scroll down a ton to see the separate boards?

I uninstalled that a couple days ago so you shouldn't be seeing anything. I'll check to see what's going on.

Shot in the dark here but based on the new header I'm guessing someone said we couldn't use the Big XII or school logo's AT ALL??

WHAT'S NEXT- GONNA SUE ALL THE FOLKS WITH A FLYIn' WV TATOO?
How about fine me cause I had one on my birthday cake yesterday?!?!

I mean, I get it.
But, come on. We're just a bunch of people who love our Mountaineers.

So- whoever is trolling the sight being an Ass and raising these issues: LIGHTEN THE HECK UP!

I'm going to start some massive upgrades tonight. I have a list of fixes that need to go out on the site as well as some new stuff to keep things interesting. The site will probably be a little sluggish tonight. If things go well we'll switch over to the updates tomorrow evening. Arcade will probably be down for a while but chat will be up post-updates. In the meantime if you have any questions/problems just PM me or post here.

These changes will be the first step toward converting our site into not only a WVU community but also a WVU news portal.

Do these updates involve running out of SQL connections and displaying the database username? lol

Sounds like someone is not closing sessions....KEVIN! rofl

:)) That was a GoDaddy error - someone on the shared database server had too many connections and brought the whole server down. I am moving off of GoDaddy and onto another host and adding a redundant web and database server.

Whoa, how does that even happen. Don't those allow something like 60K connections?

Actually I think it might be more. What are you going to do now that you don't have all of those hot girls from the GoDaddy commercials? You do get those girls when you use their service right?

I'm a computer geek - even if I got the hot girls I would have no idea what to do with them. =)) :paranoid:

I want to thank everyone for their patience during the unplanned downtime this afternoon (thanks Danica!) and the sluggishness this evening. Everything has gone well so far and hopefully the new TMN will be rocking tomorrow or Thursday at the latest.

GoDaddy crashed again. I'm moving the database this evening. I'll keep everyone updated when that happens.

Does anyone still have the mini chat on the top of their page? It should be gone so if you still have it please let me know.

Ok folks, the site is running on the new database server. It should be okay but if you notice anything unexpected please let me know.
