Nope, that's always been there

Alas, no.

*crawls under Jim Lynn's desk*

*hugs*

I do so hope everything else worked okay for you, sweet pea.

*uncrawls from the desk*

Simulpost...

Definitely!

Hi All,

For those that have said the service is slower than normal...

I'm told that the reduced speed issues you're currently experiencing are temporary, the database is rebuilding. The speed should get back to normal, or perhaps even be better than normal, shortly.

So bear with it, better soon!

peta. Knew we could rely on you

You'll say anything just to keep away from !
Peta - I'll ask you since you're around, how soon can we reasonably hope for something to remove old messages from our spaces?

"There is such facility already:

Just do not subscribe!, Or unsubscribe from a forum as soon as it starts to run."

Nah, I'm trying to delete old messages people have left for me (2 to be precise, which are meaningless!)

Traveller in Time on his head
"Can we have in the announcement a warning if the search will be out of order?

And perhaps a flag when the search function is ready again?"

I hadn't realised the search whats-it could be out of order!

Very sweet of you, VIP and I'm sure Jim Lynn will apreciate the hug - but I'm not Jim Lynn; I'm the *other* Jim. The one who's under my desk

::Drags Jimster from under his desk and dusts him oFf::
There you go!
No point hiding, we know where you are!

But I found a bit of fluff down there...

It was my friend...

Seriously though, we're looking into the many issues people have been raising over the last few days, and we'll be endeavouring to work out exactly what's gone wrong where, and how we might be able to fix things. It looks like we might be able to do more upgrades in the near future, and inevitably there'll be moments where we're fixing things as much as adding new stuff. That's all part and parcel of being part of an exciting experimental concept like DNA.

Ah, but do you really *want* to be part of an experiment?

You get what you sign on for.

How soon will everything be normal again? I just got a lot of
"NOT IMPLEMENTED
The server is unable to perform the method at this time."
messages

Or is that considered normal until the next upgrade?

Ah, but you normally get paid for being part of an experiment!
Where's my ?
