Help! We're Dying.

[Jason Tate]

The website has had a tad bit of a problem. You may notice some things are not working (hey, we're still more functional than myspace). Please bear with us as we get everything back online and operational. We are aware of most of the bugs/issues at this point in time, but we will ask for help in identifying problems in the near future. Again, we're very sorry. Look on the brightside, at least you still have news and the forums - and hey, I haven't ripped my hair out yet.

[thisisadisaster]

haha. take your time jason.

and yes. at least your not down everyday like myspace.

[jfb392]

The sites been a bit slower lately, but it's fine for the most part.
Keep up the good work.

[reductiondesign]

We will overcome!
We will overcome!

There's a huge list of bands above me. Cool.

Take your time, Tate. Make it awesome!

[Matt_Dizzle]

yes take your time. we can all wait.

[Caleb Cattivera]

yes take your time. we can all wait.

NO we cant! hurry up jason shit.

:) ilu.

[boysdontcry17]

i was slightly aggravated when i saw it was down.

all for the best i suppose

[ForeverInADay]

my myspace was deleted because there were all these porn ads on my front page. I didn't put them up, mind you.

And now I can't make a new myspace...

[fullydownfan]

Hang in there, I know how annoying & stressful it can be. =P keep up the good work though!

[Ender217]

Yea! the main page is back up!!!

[Tmovielife16]

im sure if you email them enough theyd give you another one, im sure you're not the only one that has happened to, so yea, or get an another email address and use that

Most things seem fine; one thing I did notice (not that you were asking for bugs, but I figured I'd put it out) was in the forums when you quote someone it's adding ";3937982" to the name, which results in this:

LOL!

That's not a bug, that's on purpose. Click it and it takes you to the post you quoted.

[Robb]

I'm dumb.

I'm assuming that's a recent addition?

[fire on my lips]

good luck with that jason.
i guess I should have downloaded the Lakes EP before I went to the movies instead of waiting until after I got home.

[Jason Tate]

[nivek87]

that original post feature that robb was talking about is pretty cool. makes things a lot easier especially on big threads.

take your time and hang in there. the site is still sexy.

[CalebAndrew]

In the many years I've been visiting this site, this last patch of downtime was squashed as quickly, if not more quickly than others. Jason (and maybe other staff as well) keep things running smoothly all the time, and that dependability is rad.
My only wish is that I could change my profile name wihtout creating a new profile.
"Lobsterpoop182" is embarassing at this point in my life....*sigh*

I agree, I actually really like that.

My stupid question wound up having a cool result for me. That's some Forrest Gump shit right there.

[leftstranded]

it works better than my love life right now

[Rock]

as long as jason tate's hair stays beautiful, i'm happy.

[thesaturation]

Screw this website. Every one I know that has visited this website tells me how badly constructed and how poorly run absolutepunk.net is.

Just kidding. Nobody talks behind your back as far as you know.

[Raistlin]

Jason, if any of my organs are needed, I will gladly donate one.

[Of Machines]

if this site ever gets as bad or worse than myspace (even possible?) i will shoot my computer. But luckily its been pretty good, I only noticed it down once and that was last night. good job with the upkeep!

[heyRomanticA__x]

hahah, funny thread title. <3 ap.net

[xtianheadbanger]

yeh i noticed
o and i couldnt ever get to the third page of news
now i cant even get to the second

[Cue the Sun]

i could never get to the second...

[blink621]

bummer...but at least some things are back and running. good luck

[axelblazer]

I tried to go and listen to the As Tall As Lions stream and it says that I don't have privileges to goto this page or i'm trying to access an adminstrator's page or something...is this just me or is it a problem with everyone?





Hang in there Jason, I'm pretty sure you'll get everything back and running in no time. No pressure...This site is definately one of the best sites out there that I like to be on, just to let you know. Keep up the great work

[kshtoinks12]

Jason, yo have 3 hours to fix all of the bugs on AP, make it possible to redirect you to the quote, and put GAD on the front page as a featured band or else jared and mellisa die, and AP becomes your tomb. Remember, "X" marks the spot.

[kshtoinks12]

it works better than my love life right nowhahahahahahha, that made me lol

[a hybrid]

wait i thought you didnt consider what was posted on the front page news. oh tate how hypocritical!

It's everyone. Tate gave me the link to the Lakes EP (which is very good, White Flag is a great song) because that was down. Hopefully Tate will have it fixed before Brand New released the new album (sorry I'm listening to Jude Law).
Thanks again Tate for the direct zip.

[cahrishurr]

i dont think theres any major sites as unstable as myspace

i cant even remember the times this site has been down like it was last night, i love this site..and the fact that its never broken

[Julia Conny]

my myspace was deleted because there were all these porn ads on my front page. I didn't put them up, mind you.

And now I can't make a new myspace...


oh no!!!

[Julia Conny]

That's not a bug, that's on purpose. Click it and it takes you to the post you quoted.

hmm, clever.

[goyoyofosoco]

I wish I knew what features don't work, but, I'm not Lewis OR Clark, so I don't plan on trying to discover SHIT.




I trust AP to not fully suck, and that's good enough for me.

[goyoyofosoco]

I hate myself for making that "joke", too, just so you know.

[zerock]

hmm the search button seems not to be working properly.

[nicolerork]

I feel your pain Jason! I run a Sufjan board using vBulletin and everything went haywire when I tried to upgrade to 3.6 .... luckily I backed everything up and I'm running 3.5 again.

Good luck!

[chokeychicken]

[preppyak]

hmm the search button seems not to be working properly.

and the reviews now require a password to view...that seems odd

[Cheeseman837]

[SwedishHeat]

I don't think this is related to the recent F-ups, but on my laptop, when I try to log-in to the main page, on the top right, y'know, I put in my username and password, but when I click to log-in or press Enter, it clears the password field and tries to log me in. Obviously, it doesn't work, but I've tried Firefox and IE, and they both do the same thing. It seems like it's something to do with that laptop, but I have no idea what it could be.

[McSavah]

Stay with us!

[wtfemokid]

yeah i cursed a lot when i tried to come here and it was down, then went to myspace to stalk people and it was down. what a shitty night last night was.

[jfb392]

FUCK I want the white style back.

[Jason Tate]

FUCK I want the white style back.
Yeah, bitch about it - that's probably going to make me work extra hard at getting it back.

[cremesoda201]

Yeah, bitch about it - that's probably going to make me work extra hard at getting it back.

Rawr.

[12:46AM]

FUCK I want the white style back.i miss the white too. and the as tall as lions exclusive. i'll wait it out.

[GQMike of TSPR]

AP.net > Myspace for anything music

[BarrelIsPointed]

Whoa, shit's going crazy on here. Good luck fixing it.

[jfb392]

Yeah, bitch about it - that's probably going to make me work extra hard at getting it back.I'm not bitching about it, I just haven't seen the red stylesheet in probably a year..

[MrMet]

Only problems I noticed are I can't view my profile and before that I couldn't add my last.fm account to it. Nothing too major. Props on adding Skype though!
