Golfingboy Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Finally back to normal for me, after being locked out, but after a password reset all is good. I missed the forum as well, it’s fun to check in even with 12 hour days at the hospital, followed by the rush home to avoid a ~40,000 baht fine for being outside after 8 pm. Dad is hanging on, the docs who said he was in his final days were full of shite. But it’s not good, don’t see him ever having the strength to return home. And his new wife cant even visit as she’s in agony from needing a hip replacement, which has been delayed due to pandemic. F—k 2020-21-22..........I’ve had enough 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maipenrai Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Yes, good to see things up and running again; I am still missing some images but can live with that. All I had to do here was sign back in again - although I will add that I only access this forum through my laptop, never my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tko Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) Time for some accuracy. As a long time member of PA and TV, when they said we will be more stable and have fewer problems after moving to invision, it will actually be the opposite. Of all the forums I am a member of, those on invision are the least stable and have the most problems. Something to look forward to under the new ownership of 24-7. EDIT: From something I saw on another forum, it may not be invision but rather the server provider that makes PA, etc so unstable. I believe that is Cloudflare?

There would be problems with any server/host running software that changes so frequently. We use Invision mainly for the Support as they don’t offer it to a reasonable level if we host the forum elsewhere. The perfect host/solutions probably don’t exist. If they did we would try it.

I know it makes sense to consolidate with your other properties, but of the forums I visit it seems PA's is the least stable. The ones that have the least problems appear to have private servers. In any case, best of luck. It's not the provider that makes a forum for me, it's the content and the members. I also do appreciate that the mods have to keep it from turning into a sh*tshow.

I also do appreciate that the mods have to keep it from turning into a sh*tshow. We had our own servers before but Invision would not give priority support. This is why we took the, reluctant, decision to switch to their hosting about 18 months ago. Thai Visa made the same decision for the same reason. I really wish a better option existed. Hopefully this forum will be relatively error free, touch wood, as it’s very small. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind them actually, they started a couple of days ago, went into my spam folder. But i changed them to go into my inbox, give them a quick look, anything of interest i read, keeps me 'plugged in' a bit when i can't currently get there. If they get monotonous, then i'll just block them or put them back in spam. No biggie, for me anyway ... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
