I don't know if its just me.... or is the forum a bit screwy today....
Heres what I'm getting when I view any page.

edit... had to rehost on imageshack since it seems that phyrefile is having problems too right now.

^^I see that sometimes when I've got a bunch of torrents seeding. Usually I either pause all of my active torrents or close the program entirely and try reloading. If you don't have a torrent program running, check to see if there's another program running that's using all your upload bandwidth.

Nope... Firefox and Pidgin are my only programs that are connecting out of my computer right now. Nothing else.

I was just checking some other threads with my torrent program closed and was getting the same issue... curious...

the Interceptor · September 21st, 2008, 09:58 PM

I'm haviong the same issues. Seems like all of the vBulletin symbols were swapped for text.

Something is majorly wrong here.

Cobol74 · September 21st, 2008, 09:59 PM

These guys are reporting issues (in the wrong thread btw).

I am OK on Vista and Firefox 3.0.1, I'll check IE7 and Chrome.

OK getting issues in Chrome, site is not resolving properly. I am getting issues on Firefox now. IE7 is worse.

sorry, wasn't sure if it was just an issue with me, or with the forum, so I didn't come here. But yes, I'm having the same problem.

matt2000 · September 21st, 2008, 10:42 PM

I'm getting this too unfortunately, seem to remember you can switch to the US server if the Euro server is having these issues.

klankymen · September 21st, 2008, 11:51 PM

to further complicate matters, I see the images fine on my macbook (firefox), but not on my PC (also firefox)

NecroJoe · September 22nd, 2008, 12:00 AM

I've been having this problem since at least yesterday, but only on my laptop...not my desktop. Both are PC's, both running firefox.

Viper007Bond · September 22nd, 2008, 12:50 AM

static.finalgear.com is down, dunno why (same box, different httpd). It serves all of the site and forums' images.

It will vary between users and computers due to your local cache. If you were to dump your browser cache (don't do it), it'd look like shit.

Quiky is AFK though and I dunno how to fix it.

Quiky · September 22nd, 2008, 03:12 AM

Someone deleted the configuration files AND the backups. All fixed now..

CrazyRussian540 · September 22nd, 2008, 03:14 AM

Hooray for Quiky!

Something to do with China/India/whoever it was?

IceBone · September 22nd, 2008, 03:14 PM

On an unrelated note, can you change the reputation form so neither of the radio buttons is selected by default? I don't want to pos-rate a dirtbag by accident.

NooDle · September 22nd, 2008, 03:38 PM

^Ice : look before you click

another thing : i can't seem to use the IMG button in the quick reply anymore, a popup opens but it just crashes and I end up with a lite version of the homepage in a tiny little box.

I'm not too lazy to type [img] and [/img] everytime though

The gXboxLive isn't working for me, only Quiky and matt2000 show up (both FF and IE)

Xbox Live is down for 24 hours, so it can't update.

Now that Clarkson is a scooter rider and everything, how about this?
