Forum Down

Just wanted to let you all know that some sort of weird and complicated ‘thing’ happened to the forum tonight. Something about a sphinx search and the database error and back up and rebuild. I am listening to Vlad talk to various tech and server guru’s attempting to fix the problem. To be honest, we do not know how long it will take to fix this problem. I dare not continue to ask Vlad when it will be fixed, as he seems to be blowing steam out of his ears.
So hang tight everyone! The forum should be fixed ’soon’, and no, I have no definition of soon! Thank you for your patience ![]()

Happy tPF Vibes to Vlad and the fixit crew!! Thanks for all you do and for keeping us posted, Megs! XXXOO PGal
1.22.2008 - 12:17 am
We miss you! I am TPF obsessed for realz.
1.22.2008 - 12:18 am
I am quite frustrated too!! They are backing something up… or something.
All I know is last time I could get on tPF it said I was the ONLY person on and there had not been an updated thread in an hour, which was completely wrong. So there is some major glitch being fixed now.
Thanks for hanging tight! Miss you all!
1.22.2008 - 12:28 am
Thanks for working on it Vlad and Megs!!!! I just got home and tPF was the first thing I went for…I miss you guys already!
1.22.2008 - 12:33 am

1.22.2008 - 12:33 am

I thought you said your internet was down!
How was your weekend with Ryan?
1.22.2008 - 12:41 am
Missing tpf already! Hope there isn’t too severe a problem going on! Good luck with everything!
1.22.2008 - 12:42 am
Thanks for the update megs!!!! I just bet DH 100$ that I could stay off tpf for a few hours!!!!!
I check back in a ‘few’!!!
1.22.2008 - 12:43 am
Well you may win… not by choice
Still waiting for an update all! No new news from the techs and Vlad has on headphones and is working.. won’t talk to me. Hang in there!
1.22.2008 - 12:48 am
Sending good vibes to the Fix-It Crew! Hope all goes well!
1.22.2008 - 12:48 am
thanks for the update, Megs! And thanks to both you and Vlad for all your hardwork in maintaining this great forum! Hope everything gets fixed and there are no major problems.
man, i am sooo obsessed with this forum! i need my TPF fix!
i guess the upshot is that tonight i’ll get something productive done! LOL
1.22.2008 - 12:58 am
Vlad says it is coming along slowly. The techs are repairing a table that got broken, meaning data is not in order and needs to be put back into order. There were 5 million entries in that table, so it will take a while to get it fixed.
The rough estimate is a few more hours for this to be fixed.
Looks like I will be watching the news and waiting up with Vlad! Maybe some of you will keep us company
1.22.2008 - 1:00 am
ohhh myyyy…but i will patiently wait.. tic-toc-tic-toc… Good luck, guys..hope it will be up and runnin’ soon. Thanks!!!
1.22.2008 - 1:04 am
Good luck with the “fix”! Thanks for all the hard work you do.
Sorry, but I won’t be keeping you company…kids go back to school tomorrow. I’m going to bed!
Looking forward to seeing tPF up and running tomorrow!

1.22.2008 - 1:06 am
Uh oh….I may have to resort to online shopping rather than just drooling over all y’alls pretty bags!!
1.22.2008 - 1:08 am
I’m new to the forum and newly obsessed!
I bought my first luxury bag..(LV Mono Speedy) and I’ve been planning it’s contents non-stop with the help of the chic ladies and gents on the forum. Fix it up soon… 
1.22.2008 - 1:16 am
Thanks for the update, I’m in serious withdrawal
Hope the repair is quick and not too frustrating! Good luck Vlad…and thanks for working so hard to get the site back up for us!!
1.22.2008 - 1:26 am

1.22.2008 - 1:58 am
Yikes! Good luck Vlad!!!
Megs, you sound like my mom. She looooooves watching the news when she comes home from her night shift. It’s only bad stuff anyway!
Thanks for all the hard work. I really miss tPF!!! This is usually my only refuge.
1.22.2008 - 1:59 am

1.22.2008 - 2:05 am

Good night everyone
1.22.2008 - 2:10 am

If I send Vlad some meatballs will it get done faster?
1.22.2008 - 2:34 am
…OMG did someone say meatballs?? Late night snack anyone??
1.22.2008 - 2:39 am
I hope tpf is up and running in no time. I like browsing on here from time to time. I keep checking back every hour but it is still not up yet!
1.22.2008 - 2:49 am
This is like torture!!
Makes me realize how much I miss TPF and all the Lambies!! 
1.22.2008 - 2:58 am
Oh that’s reeeeaaally done it now…

My daughter walks in “Mum are you on the Purse Forum AGAIN”? me: “No, miss smarty pants I’m not” (cos’ little did she know I’m HERE, trying to find out what’s goin’ on)…
then her smart a** reply: “Why, IS THE SERVER DOWN”??
1.22.2008 - 2:58 am
I’m sure Vlad would love some balls comma meat.
1.22.2008 - 3:01 am
^ lol, that’s what my DH says to me! when i told him the server was down, he was like “oh no, what are u gonna do now? the world is ending!” lol
1.22.2008 - 3:02 am
hi to all my thread killers girls…
all the best with this megs and vlad. hope it is fixed quickly!!
1.22.2008 - 3:02 am
i just came in from the gym and not only do i not get my purse forum fix but you are all talking about meatballs!!! this is torture!!
1.22.2008 - 3:05 am
I think Vlad could use a drink or three.
Good luck and hang in there….after spending close to 4 hours working out a glitch on my PC, I totally understand.
1.22.2008 - 3:13 am
OH NO!!
I am missing my tPF!!! Last time the forum was down I made an impulse ebay purchase.
I hope y’all can get it back soon, but don’t work TOO hard, Vlad.
I love all of you and I hope to wake up to some Purse Forum Action!!!
1.22.2008 - 3:16 am
Oh well, looks like I’ll have to do some work this morning. Thanks Vlad and the Techs, hopefully “see” you all soon.
1.22.2008 - 3:18 am
Yes, see everyone later
1.22.2008 - 3:21 am

1.22.2008 - 3:56 am
Mr Roo had problems at work today. Lots of DOS attacks coming from domains in China. Also the financial markets abroad were not doing well today and the internet was bogged down. Let’s hope the US stock exchange does not have a black Tuesday tomorrow. All the chicken littles are freaking because the after hours markets aren’t lookin’ real good.
1.22.2008 - 4:33 am
Just checking in..I guess the techs are still busy working on it. Just wanted to let you know that we appreciate all your hard work Megs and Vlad
1.22.2008 - 5:15 am
Well, I just went onto the forum, and here’s something bizarre……it shows that I am the ONLY person on the WHOLE forum, 1 member(me) and 0 guests. Seriously am/was I the only person, or is this a glitch?
Thanks for all your hard work!!
1.22.2008 - 5:35 am
The forum should be back up within the next hour. Thanks for being patient!
1.22.2008 - 5:42 am

1.22.2008 - 5:58 am
Thanks for all your hard work Vlad and Megs!!
I hope the forum is up and running soon or I might actually have to work today. 
1.22.2008 - 9:39 am
Thanks for all the hard work! Never a dull moment, eh? Loved the flaming keyboard pic
1.22.2008 - 10:41 am
Yikes, I thought tpf would be fixed this morning since I couldn’t login last night. I hope Vlad and Megs can fix the problem soon. Can’t live without tpf lol..
1.22.2008 - 10:52 am
And thanks for your hard work Vlad and Megs.
