I know I’m not usually the one who updates OB… but I thought it was necessary to leave a message to explain why the site has recently been erroring and blacking out (which is why some of you have been unable to access it for a few days).

I’ve been talking to my webhost and those bastards are finally managing to help me solve this problem. The reason its taken so long is because they only respond once a day and their first few responses (or lack thereof ) told me that they obviously hadn’t read the problem I took the time to write out for them.

They’ve assured me that they know what the problem is (don’t worry, OB isn’t going anywhere) and are currently telling me how to fix it. Apparently all of the forums / SQL scripts are under the same user name and it’s too taxing for that it. They need to have a different user name for each one since this site and a couple other ones hosted under this web host have gotten so big!

I’m halfway through fixing this. ^___^ I’ve added the new user names and given them their permissions to the SQL scripts. Now I just need LunarPages to tell me how to reconfigure the scripts to use their new user accounts. :3

So cheer up everyone, the crisis will be over in a few days, tops. <3
