Site Software Update

KonradDev Blog Last Activity 4 years ago 4.8K views 208 comments
<p>Hi Guys,<br />I'm the developer for this site. We've done a software update, and are currently working out a few kinks. If you notice anything wrong, please post in here.</p>
<p><strong>Stuff we know about already:<br /></strong>- The site will run a little slower for the next few hours while the caches rebuild.<br />- There may have been some very minor data loss during the move, namely things that were added in the few hours during which we were performing the data migration. The only way to avoid this would have been to take down the site for an indeterminate amount of hours while performing the migrate - which we didn't want to do.</p>

Jake3942 reports the following problem "since the update, my profile is just blank and i cant find my fav pics, and when i click on someone elses profile there page is just blank as well, i know to click videos and pics ect but it used to just display it on the main screen." However, when others look at his page it looks normal.

Regarding my post about gmail and email notifications for messages, friend requests, and posts; as Nick has said, there is a series of check boxes for email notifications under "edit profile" and "preferences". In my account, these boxes are NOT checked but the gmail address linked to this account still gets emails for posts, friend requests, and messages. So this function does not seem to be working correctly. All this is an entirely different issue from the problem of the site only sending verification emails to gmail addresses but not to any other type of email address.

The site apparently now sends emails to your email address when someone sends you a message or friend request, etc. on your GBT account (seems like more spam to me). However, these emails appear to only go to GBT accounts with a gmail address linked to them. My regular account (can't log into it, but it is still there) is not linked to a gmail address and I have not gotten any of these messages. This proxy account (set up because I was locked out of my regular account) is linked to a gmail address and I do see the emails there. It appears that the site will only send emails to gmail addresses and not to any other type of email address. This seems to be true for this stuff, lost password requests, and new account requests. I tried this with the lost password request function and have the same story. You get the verification email if your account is linked to a gmail address and you do not get the email if you do not use a gmail address. Are the upgrade people on the Google payroll?

Judging by the number of issues I can only assume that you have been learning on the job...I hope for Nick's sake you have moderated you fees accordingly

Same story as skoobysnaxx. Cannot log onto to my regular account (Grangeol). Sent Nick an email several days ago (to plano0023@yahoo.com) and did not get a response. The lost password function still does not work (the promised email never arrives). Would like to see some positive responses that indicate how you guys are doing on fixing these issues. And please do not attempt another upgrade without a lot more testing.

Hi - patiently waiting for any updates on the user login/password issues? Still can't log in with my skoobysnaxx username. Seems others may have been able to. Did PM Nick18 several days ago as asked in post below or in another blog. Thanks.

My avatar size is 100 x 120 and still its really cropped and messed up!

My avatar never goes in correctly. If it's a big picture it gets severely and awkwardly cropped. If I shrink the picture to fit more of it it shows up very very blurry.

Maybe the IT guys are just busy working on their other contract (the federal Obamacare website (another success story for them)) and have not been working the GBT problems.

Can not even upload full length movies anymore. Limit is set on .5gb now. Why have a movie category when we are limited on file size? I agree with nate88 (Andy). Things are FUCKED UP here and it is now fun to come here anymore. Yes this is Bull Shit.
