Re: Oh, hai! [The "EF is back" thread]

the values are stored in the database and I can see the numbers so it might be a period updater that does this. Otherwise we can look at a manual fix for me.

edit: it's actually just the dots are not displaying.....

All because the forum was down

I had soooo much extra time on my hands I managed to father 5 additional children, lick the road clean outside my house with my tongue and build an entire coal mine using only a swiss army knife with its interesting horse shoe cleaning attachment.
Work has never seen me so productive / bored and hopefully I am now in line for a bank busting rise.

Also I had 10 reputation blobs and no groans.....please fix the forum again

The rep is not lost, but the way it was displayed is my own creation. Each time the software is upgraded I have to hack it back in. The green will return, have patience....

Yeah right, I had to use brainpower to bring back the other bits of my 4 domains that are hosted by Marks recently dead server. It did teach me the lesson to have my own backups in future something which of course I now have. And for what it is worth I had a few skype sessions with Mark talking about the problems and he looked like a tramp - clearly looking after himself was less important than looking after his customers including the EF which is genuinely appreciated.

Well done Mark et al.

I actually went outside and played.

I blame English Forum for any shenanigans I got up to.

Speaking of which, where the hell is the embarrassed smiley emoticon?
