What's goin' on at the UBI forums?

Post by :FI:Falcon » Sun Jan 21, 2007 6:38 pm

Ak!

After the maintenance over at UBI last night it looks as if we've lost over half of our posts AGAIN!

It could be just temporary and they will rebuild our thread soon,

or it could be that the large number of pics we use there may be a problem,

or it could be that we have a jealous enemy over there,

or something else.

~shrug~

But if anyone of you mates has a friend who is a mod over there could find out it would be interesting to know.

Thanks,


Falcon

... to bring us down ... erm ... I mean the amount of postings. ;)

Can you remember how many replies we had on Deathsledge´s first recruiting thread? Our thread was No.1 on the UBI-Squadron forum. And then the "crash" ... :(

Honestly, I think the UBI BB software is crappy ... that´s all! :?

Think the zoo crashed recently, or was hacked or something.
Obviously, Ubisoft don't have the impressive backup and recovery facilities that we have here.

Over the past week or two we've had 30 posts, then 60, then 90, then 30 and then your posts don't show, then we have 60, then the sigs are all doubled, then the newest posts are back, then we have 90 then the sigs are okay, then posts disappear, then we have 30 posts, then ...

gah!

but just yesterday it's back to 90-ish and the double sigs are gone.

I haven't checked this morning yet, but I'm hopefull.


Thanks NC, see what's goin' on!

It seems that a lot of forum posts/forums are returning to normal. Please bear with us as we try to rebuild what is still missing. Thank you for your patience

He said...
The site that host Ubi's forums have been going whacko here lately. Basically, we lost every thread from the last three months on all the forums. Just lately they have been able to restore some of the threads and are trying to restore everything that was lost. It is a slow process.
I think that pretty much explains everything :^o

Any questions and I'll pass them on.. I mean...

Any sensible questions reguarding the ubi forums and I'll pass them on :lol:
