Chet or Dave or????

It seems that the "view more smilies" is not working. I get:

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Invalid use of group function [1111]

An SQL error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact the Board Administrator if this problem persists.

Hmm...yes, I see that. No ideas on that, but I'll look into it.

In the meantime, give "View New Posts" a try. It is very similar, but limits the list to posts since your last visit. So if you check the site again six hour later, you only see posts in those six hours. The downside is that if you don't get around to reading those posts, they'll be gone from the list when you check the site again six hours after that. At which point, I recommend getting a life.

I'm also missing the active topics functionality.

Also, has the post editing feature disappeared? I'm notorious for editing posts just after I submit them the first time. I wouldn't mind seeing that back to allow for correcting and completing information.

Thanks for all the hard work maintaining this site.

It disappeared mid-edit on me, lol. I would also appreciate having the ability to edit my posts returned.

Thanks!

Is there a way we can track down these jerks and shoot 'em in the ear with BB Guns until they promise to stop?

Hey, you made all the hair-straightener ads disappear!!! Well Done Moderators!!!!!
Thanks... Don't know who done it, but it's cool...

Interesting .. Now it looks like the "edit" feature is only disabled on specific forums.

And now, a few minutes later, it looks like the edit feature is back to disabled everywhere, lol.

Thanks for turning off the quick reply again! I know it's a pain to sort all this stuff out, lol, I've been a mod on a couple of other boards & I host a couple forums.

Ok - Now it seems I can edit my last post as long as I haven't left that thread or too much time has elapsed. But if I head away and come back after a bit the post is no longer editable. I'm pretty sure this behavior is new since the upgrade. At least it explains why the edit feature has been driving me crazy with "sometimes I can / sometimes I can't" behavior, lol.

I hate this. Couple times through editing a post I ran out of time...

Good catch, guys. Editing is now eternally available.

Hey, the upgrade has massive wonkiness! The last 10 pages of my build log are missing. - You know the pages that take it from 'almost done' through registration, a few road trips and my first SCCA title!!! That's not the worst part; I went out to the garage and the car has regressed with the build log back to its "almost finished" state, and there's not an SCCA trophy in sight! What gives!?

Har Har Har.

This is just to say thanks to all the folks who work in the shadows maintaining and admin'ing the site. It's an awesome resource for the scratch builder and honestly, some of the most entertaining media I consume.

Hat's off fellas. - and whatever you're getting paid, we should double it. (Lets see, $0.00 x 2 = $0.00, yup, we can still afford your masterful services. )!

I know this is a pain......And I appreciate all the work you guys do to keep us all locost junkies connected.

This morning, all of the posts in this thread, back to Gonzo's Oct 21, 2010 7:13 am post, now show up as unread. I know that I read them all up to rust_bucket's post last night.
