Yes I know a lot of things are still broke, they are getting worked on. Hopefully I should have everything fixed soon..

You're the MAN...... (no smilies available)

|
GodZilla...
GodZilla,
Hey bro, any updates on the site? It's been hosed for about a month now. We'd all enjoy being able to use the site to it's full capability. Thanks homie. |
Let me know when the trader rating thing is working. I have to leave some (+) feedback for a seller. :)
|
Yeah, biotch. Get it done! :)
|
um... anyone know what happened to GodZilla ?

http://www.nova-cinema.com/archives/2004/74/mothra.jpg really though, the site has been screwy for a while. maybe Kyle should let some of us help take some of the load. |
You know, we're all asking for the site to get back to normal, but when it DOES get fixed, we won't know how to use it anymore (again). :D
LoL @ your pic Entropy |
well now i noticed that some of our titles are gone. i'm just "Moderator", and other people are just "Registered User". but other people still have their titles. is the site just falling apart now? Kyle has dissapeared off the face of the planet.

Huh, It still say's I'm the "bombdiggityshiznettoblamzam" :)

So does anyone have Kyle's email addy or know how to contact him ? I haven't quite made it to making my own "my350z" login to contact him. |
Rod What Is Bombdiggityshiznettoblamzam. Heck It Took Me 5 Minutes To Type That Correctly.

No! That's why they invented "Copy & Paste" :D EDIT... Back on topic BEETCHES! |
Just PM'd GodZilla on my350z.com... hopefully he'll have time to stop by here.
|
any reply yet Nismo?
|
I'm guessing that zdriver.com has become the bastard child of the server owners. The previous bastard child was 510driver.com. it was taken down for maintenance and never came back. Supposedly to make room for the new 350z forums. My first screen name on this forum was "wheres510driver.com", to ask about the old forums....... not a word. Understandably, the server resources are directed to the areas that make money, or at least pay for themselves, which apparently this one is not making the cut. Maybe Kyle, or whoever, can delegate some of the administrative duties to some people who care, and even offer the same premier membership deal that he offers on the my350z.com forums. But then, there might not be enough traffic here to support that.
No bashing is intended, just stating how things appear here to me. |

Negatory. Looks like he read my PM tho. Guess he's just super busy :cool: |
Well he's definitely alive and well. And definitely spending time over at my350z.com .
This is from my350z.com: Feb 28, 2006 - 5:03 PM - by GodZilla If you have noticed the site being slow lately part of wich is due to the database. So tonight I will be performing maintenance on the server to help speed it back up. That's todays date, so... :rolleyes: |
Yeah... I added a lil note on that thread:

you know, it seems like we had a lot more traffic here before everything went screwy. i've noticed that there arent nearly as many posts, or people online. maybe if it was working again, get some more traffic. i hope the site doesnt go the way of 510driver.com. that would really suck. but with no response from Kyle for this long, it makes me wonder. if it does come down to the worst case scenario, i hope we at least get a little heads up so we can try and do something about it.

now that i think about it, i wonder if our avatars and attachments went away to save bandwidth......

It would make me sick to see this site go away. It's by far the best Z car forum on the internet. I'd be willing to take on some responsibility to keep it going if need be. I'm sure there are plenty of others who would as well. The premier membership thing isn't a bad idea either. TT.net and 3ZC are nothing like this place. So what do we need to do to get our ZDriver back to what it used to be? I'm sure for new people coming in, the disfunctionality of the site is a turn off. What can we do???????
Rod. |
Yeah I'm with Rod on this one. I'm also willing to shoulder some of the load to keep this site up and running smoothly. Whatever it takes. This site is one of a kind and I'd hate to see it fade out.
|
All Hail The Health Of Zdriver!!!! Ill Do The Moderator Thing If Needed, Dont Know Much About Anything Else. But Lets Fix The Site. Anybody Know Kyles Phone # Hehehehe

10 Bucks A Year Wouldnt Sound Bad To Me If It Meant The Site Stayed And Was Always Maintained
|
i wonder if kyle would be interested in handing the site over to some of us that have been around a while. make it a community operated site. he seems to be too busy with my350z.com to spend much time over here.
|
I just noticed that the home page is gone. Now it goes straight from that ENTER screen to the forums. There used to be a little home page with whats happening and stuff like that :rolleyes: Just an observation I made. I dont know if anyone else already posted that.
I haven't been a member that long, only going to be a year in April, but I do spend a lot of time here and I would love to see this forum handed over to some of the members (atleast to the admins) before it went down the drain. I was a member of another site a while back, dastsunZUSA (I think thats what it was) and the webmaster just abandoned it and it went to shit with no moderators to keep it in check. It's sad to see such a great site with so many enthusiasts being put on the back burner. But his other site would explain why the 350Z forum has been even deader than usual lately. I cant remember the last time I saw a new post in there. |

Hey Lets All Pretend We Have 350's And Flood The Other Site And Talk About Other Z's There, He Would Have To Notice That

Someone give me a list of issues, and I'll work with Kyle to get them worked out.

-Homepage not working -Avatars missing -Smilies not working -Pic attachments not working -Also, I'd like to have the [img] tags turned on in all the 280zx sections. It's very annoying to click a link to see the pic. |
I'll start now, I can definetly get a couple things working, I just made myself admin via the database so. I know Kyle is just super busy but I'll help him out an fix up a few things that he's behind on.

-Homepage not working
The homepage I'll talk with Kyle about, he was using vbadvanced to post information on the front with articles in the DB, I should be able to address this but it won't be today. -Avatars missing Working on this, but we had a problem when we migrated to a new server in the fact that the database dumps we were taken were with a not so known bug with MySQL and Vbulletin field types, basically they were stored in the database and converting them to filesystem didn't fix it either, so they were lost. I'll check to see if you can upload new ones -Smilies not working They work, but the reply template doesn't let you click on them, I'll revert to the standard template for this and see if it clears it up, should be an quick fix. -Pic attachments not working Are they uploading, or just not showing, or are you talking about some older corrupted ones? |
wait... to clarify: the smilie buttons in the reply to thread box aren't working... you can type in the code if ya know it.

Ok,
Help me out, this is definetly a template problem, organize some long term visitiors, and find a template for us to use that you like. Let's get some movement, call/email a few folks. I'm going to revert to the default template cause that fixes 90% of this issues for now. Vbulletin 3.5.4 needs to go on as well, I'll get that Saturday hopefully.

awesome. this site has needed attention for a while. hopefully once it's all working correctly, the traffic will pick back up. btw, interesting selection of smileys, however they still cannot ba clicked on.
|
Yes,
That's the template issue, I need to back up the existing one before I nuke it, it's an older 3.0.x template which isnt' compatible. I just picked up a couple zip files of smilies, if you have other suggestions please link them and I'll dump them in. They were more of a test than anything.

some things i just remembered. the gallery is not accessable. the pics i have hosted there are still hosted, but i cant get to the gallery. also, not really a site issue, but i think the marketplace should be made more prominent so people not familiar with the site can easily find it and not get falmed for posting for sale's in the wrong place.
|
Cool,
Keep em coming, I'll get em knocked out as fast as I can.

Hehe,
Well I got some free time on my hands, I do accept bribes such as parts, games, cd's and anything else you can think to bribe me with! :) I'm upgrading to vbulletin 3.5.4 now, so we should be pretty fixed up here shortly.
