My bookmarks have all been restored, which makes me happy, but I got a thread on my page that I never bookmarked and I can't get into it to remove it.

There's something I've noticed in some of the polls since the change up. It lists the number of votes and voters. But how are some polls showing less voters to votes? Do some posters have the ability to vote more than once? The polls have had some significant changes made to them. You can now let people ... - Choose more than one option - Hide the voting until after the person has voted - Create a time delay on locking the poll and revealing the result. - Allow people to retract there vote. Does that only apply to polls created after the change? Because I was going to vote again in my X-Division poll here &... well, I can't seem to. That said, there have been 49 poll voters & 50 votes, so it's working for someone, apparently.

It's been said on their official forums that after the update you can expect some links (such as in quotes and the Bookmarks area) to be non-functional for a certain amount of time while the index is rebuilt.

Any reason I'm constantly getting a "Too Many Connections" message that doesn't let me see the board? Thats never happened before.

Any reason I'm constantly getting a "Too Many Connections" message that doesn't let me see the board? Thats never happened before. I'm going to speculate its part of the ongoing update stuff. I'm getting it pretty constantly too. Like any major update to a website, I'm sure it'll be a few days before the bugs are completely worked out.

Any reason I'm constantly getting a "Too Many Connections" message that doesn't let me see the board? Thats never happened before. I have had it happen during major events (Wrestlemania, Royal Rumble, major news like Angle getting fired and Benoit) but, never on a regular day of the week. Since the upgrade, the site has been loading really slow and now I am getting the "Too Many Connections" message every 5 minutes or so. Wrestlemania is really going to be rough. Is this an upgrade thing or is the traffic really that high right now?

We hit a site record yesterday for people online. Have no clue what caused it though.

Whoa that's about double what we had for the Benoit mess.
Impressive number.

We hit a site record yesterday for people online. Have no clue what caused it though. TNA had their first live Impact. Plus the borders on the board look all pretty and such. If TNA caused a board boom, imagine what it will be like for Wrestlemania? We should prepare for the coming flood with sandbags and distribute life rafts to everyone here, agreed? EDIT: I re-read the rules and it answered my question.

Not sure if anyone else is getting this, but alot of signatures aren't re-sizing quite right at the moment. Is that update related?

Clocks go forward tonight in the UK & Ireland. Will the clock on the forum change for me automatically or do I have to do it manually?

Pretty sure you'll have to go manual.

Pretty sure you'll have to go manual. Okay. Thanks, $lim. I've been on this board for about 3 years & I STILL couldn't remember whether we had to change clock settings manually or not. Hey, at least I'll remember for when they switch back again in Autumn.

yeah, I honestly don't remember if I had to go forward manually a couple weeks ago, but I'm pretty sure that I did.

If we reported mods for acts of jackassery and abuse of their powers (not that I plan on it) would they then be banned or would they be stripped of their mod privelages or what?
Also, what exactly are the qualifications for being a mod? Do you have to know some script stuff or what?

It'd depend on if the mod actually broke any rules.. in which case the three strikes thing would still apply, and they'd likely be disciplined in some manner. Honestly we've never dealt with that.. in general if you're apt to break the rules, you're not apt to become a mod as we all vote on new additions.
No, no much in the way of computer knowledge and like that, as I'm barely literate and I'm a mod. In general, we tend to look at one's history on the board if that makes any sense, i.e. the rule breaking thing I mentioned, as well as getting along with the majority of posters etc.. no real set criteria per se. When it comes time to select a new guy, we do nominations and vote, the whole bit.

So basically, in order to be a mod you have to keep your nose out of trouble, be respectful to EVERYONE, and have one of the mod's like you.

What's with this dead horse thing? Something about the upgrade? I realise that something probably happened withen the past 45 hours that I missed and had probably passed but I just thought I'd ask
