Hey Matt!

“I'm having trouble with the trailtalk part of the board. I can hit all the other areas fine, but trailtalk is very very slow in responding. Any changes lately?

I've noticed a number of othe people have been hitting the submit message button several times, which might be an indication of slower response... Thanks!”

“Same prob here when I dropped by today. Maybe it's a CA thing. We're all screwed up.”

“It's not justCali. Check out my post to the YAM! thread.”

“I've also been having the same problem all day. Seems to be fixed now.”

“I get it periodically still.”

“It's been causing a lot of double posts... cuzz it looks like its not taking the post and then folks (like me) click again.”

“Then just click once and wait instead of clicking again.”

“Then just click once and wait instead of clicking again.”

“mwahahahahahahahahahahahaha”

“Hey Matt, TT is really lagging again.”

“This site is doomed.”

“its the ghouls of backpacker.com eating our brains”

“I know there are some problems. My server is trying to die one me. I already have a new server, I just don't have everything installed on it and ready to go. Hopefully very soon these problems will go away.”

“Matt Rulz!”

“Thanks for the answer!”

“Thanks Matt. It's been a pain in the butt. Thanks for being on top of it.”

“Yeah, cool, man”

“i love you, matt.”

“I love you more.”

“No kidding! TT is slower than a retarded bluegill this morning.”

“brown nosers.”

“eater-of-noses.”

“You're just jealous cause Matt likes us better than you.”

“Is anyone out there a linux guru? I have a problem on the server that is beyond me.”

“I'm not a gurur by any means, but I am an educated user. I might be able to ask around here at work. What's the problem?”

“"Is anyone out there a linux guru? I have a problem on the server that is beyond me."
matt, the webmaster

Say it ain't so!”

“Phaedrus, you have mail.”

“What???? Matt is not a guru????



I am crushed,,,just so #&%!$ing crushed....


I need a drink.”

“I always thought you were secretly a gurur, Phaed.”

“Can you make a modification to the ignore feature? If a person is on my ignore list could you please include all their alias'?

Halloween is scaring me.”

“BOO”

“Mail back at you, Matt.”

“Seems to be working now.”

“YaY!”

“note to self: buy a round of drinks for phaedrus on the next west coast trip in honor of jump starting TT”

“Pfft. I was only able to point Matt at a couple of tips that guys here at work gave him. He did the jump starting himself.

I'll take the drinks, though :)”

“Hey, Matt

I double checked my options and have the date range set for 1 day. When I log in it reverts to 3 days. Sometimes it will revert to 3 days when I switch from string to string.”

“Here are a few things to check. The date option is remembered through your cookies. Make sure those settings are correct. Also check the date on your computer. If the year is incorrect, that can cause problems.

Also try to log out using the "log out" link. Then re-login. This should forces your options to be reloaded.”

“should clicking on the most recent poster box take you to that person's post...or just the thread....i'd like the first option best, but only gett the top of the thread”

“It seems to take you to that persons post if it's on the first page, but not if it's on a second or third page.”

“I just submitted this place to a "friend" working as a Nominating Judge in The Webby Community Category.


Webby Awards”

“Thanks for nudge. And if we get some press out of this, just think of how many new people will get branded as trolls when they post for the first time ;)

When you have no marketing budget, it is always nice to have people who support you by word-of-mouth type things. Thanks.”

“Budget????


What's a budget. My wife has been throwing that word around lately

all that means to me is that there isn't any money out there for me to buy any gear”

“What's up with this?

Warning: mysql_data_seek(): Offset 50 is invalid for MySQL result index 4 (or the query data is unbuffered) in /var/www/thebackpacker.com/htdocs/trailtalk/thread.php on line 86


Also, the pages don't refresh. I have never had this problem before.”

“That's the error you get when you go to a second page after the date range has changed the number of posts on the thread to less than fifty while you going to the second page.

Matt was making some changes yesterday and it seemed to affect how pages were cached. If you refresh the page, everything should be okay.”

“Well, I dumped the cookies and the stored files and it seems to have corrected the problem.”

“Thanks, Matt. I saw one string disappear this morning. I don't know what was said, because all of it was blocked by the ignore feature. I'm sure that I did not missed anything worthwhile.”

“can you please ban me for a while? I really need to get some work done.”

“Yes please, ban her.
She will not send me my cookies she promised. :-(”

“how about I send you a box of chiggers to tide you over untill I get back into cookie baking mode?”
