FYI, if you still visit the site, it’s down for technical issues.

That is a nice hat.  Really sets off the whiskers.   =)  Make it yourself?

The High Road
THR is down right now.

After our unexpected outage the other night things were running fine, but one table - a table that only saves the daily searches and should be pruned nightly - developed some issues. When trying to repair that I ran a scan and found 1 edit entry not indexed, and one IP address not indexed, a couple of missing entries where THR forget the last thread a user read, and the search index silliness.


The fact that I identified these problems means the database server has marked the data as corrupt, and THR won't run until those issues are fixed. But the stupid search index is being difficult...
So, I'm working on that, and it's late, and I've reached out for help. Worst case is I can revert back to the backup taken before the outage the other night, but I'd prefer not to lose anything y'all have posted. So I'm going to try again in a few hours, and hopefully we'll be back up soon.


Thanks for your patience.

I'm on both sites.  At this point in time I regard the two as cousins rather than competitors.

I agree.  These are the only 2 I visit anymore.  Haven’t been to The Firing Line in quite a while
