New server, take two

[Ming]

We still have the old two technology sub forums appearing at the top of the OTF, but at least the sports forum is back on top

[Solver]

That's because you're an admin, log out and you should only see one tech forum. There are plenty of duplicate forums that exist for some reason, I don't know why, except that they were there before the move, but "normal people" don't see the duplicates

Thanks for you effort.

Great work, though a minor quibble - when entering a thread, font size seems to be very large ( 72'ish)

[Solver]

What font? In the posts? Everything? I only see your post in a bigger font, funnily enough.

[astrologix]

Thank you Solver, all seem to work fine

Excellent... although, while backpaging from this very tread to the Off Topic mainpage, this message appeared -

"

The forum move is complete, but there are some stability issues.

The new drive's in place finally, I'm reuploading the data to it. When all of that is done, I'll probably update the forum to the latest vB version while at it.

Currently expecting to get this done during tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon.

It hadn't appeared up until then. Also, by copying and pasting the above, my font size and style has changed...

That's because software is too modern now and you can paste formatted stuff. Try to copy-paste a headline from a news article and it will be big... there's a "paste as plain text" button in the reply box though to avoid that.

Something like this

Strangely it looked sane when not logged in. Oh, trying to post something also gives a big font.
Have to get some sleep so no more today.

I don't know why they can't make plain text the default and copying formatting a special option, it's pretty annoying reeeeeeeee

I think there are some per-user settings now.

Go to your profile, and click "Customize my Style" under there. See if you find something with font options that seems relevant.

i love that this place is still kicking around.

i signed up with a new account because i couldn't recall what the password or old username was. turns out it wasn't qcubed anymore, it was "Q Classic", and while i've recovered it, i think i'll stick with this new one now.

The faster speed is refreshing

Thank you Solver for taking over the technical duties and hosting of Apolyton. It's been slowly decaying out of neglect, but has been given new life. SOrry, I should have warned you about the voodoo curse that has been put on Apolyton's data, but you got it worked out

Thank you to Ming for taking the responsibilities of ownership. I rest easy knowing Aployton is in the right hands.

Thank you to all those who have supported the day to day management of Apolyton over the years, keeping the hordes of Vietnamese carpet cleaners at bay and the various still active forums running as they should be.

Thank you to those who offered to help support the site financially.

My reign of terror is over ... I regret nothing! (Well, aside from taking on ownership ... and not banning more of you!)
