When the board upgraded its software ( formerly board offline monday)

[tommy dee]

just a heads up, the board will go offline for a while from Monday as they change to a new server.

 

its expected that threads will remain visible during a possible 24 hour transfer time but new posts may not be saved .

F—k me, I guess I’m back to downloading Thai soap operas…..

Don’t deny it you lying buggers, you do it too! 

[bob lt]

I wish the tech guys best of luck, hope all goes smoothly 🙏

Good to see the forum up and running again. Looks like any posts made on Tuesday were lost, but we were forewarned that might happen. Is the forum stable enough now that new posts won't be lost?

[Tourist Thai]

sorry about Mondays posts being lost, it shouldnt have happened, but the coder decided to go back to the same backup again to fix an issue

It’s to be expected it’s not a 100% smooth transition. It was online yesterday just long enough to make one post, then I got different messages, including a much appreciated one saying “my coder has to sleep sometime”. That summed it up well for me….

[bob lt]

Welcome back, just in time with PA going down later today

[forcebwithu]

When time allows, it would be nice to have the return to top of page icon back.

PA now undergoing the same move to a new server. Expect to see an influx of new BM's here with the note they put on the status page.

If a visitor had an opportunity to visit one bar in Pattaya on 17 Dec 2022 which bar would that be? 

This particular traveler has a bit of a family orientated schedule and needs to plan well.

More info required, what does that chap like, an open beer bar type place or maybe a nightclub environment, a go-go bar perhaps or maybe an all-on experience such as a soapie ????

3. Interesting and interested stsff always a good sign

4. Fun

"upstairs" immediately makes me think no. But i will investigate further. Cirrently thinking either spidergirls soi6, TQ beach road.(my first love from 1992) or Le Pub (never been there)

The search index processing routine has sure been running for a long time. When it's done will it have found the return to top of page icon?

Wouldn't mind the "Edit" cutoff time being extended as well.

Agreed. Perhaps one hour.

Before the recent update there was no 'end' to the edit period. Now it's less than an hour?

Many reasons to edit: typos; better grammar; better photos; second thoughts on post content; etc. Sometimes it's just a matter of stepping away from the computer for a bit, only to come back and see the post needs an edit (or three).

Imo it's reasonable to allow editing up to the point when there are replies that quote the post.

The measure was introduced following a member who became disenchanted with the forum was able to delete all his recent posts.  This left a significant number of blank posts or posts containing nothing but a full stop.

If anyone needs a post editing or the title changing, any member of the moderation team or admin can edit the said post.
