    Recent downtime July 2016

    Beginning on July 22nd NS came under a DDoS attack. This has happened to us before, but this one was pretty severe. Essentially a DDoS attack is designed to overload a server or network, thus preventing any legitimate traffic from getting through. This attack was severe enough that it was...

    Slow Forum updates

    FYI, we are in the process of running a series of data updates back-end Forum data. Forums may be a little slow for a while as this process finishes. It should be about 45 minutes or so. Sorry!

    Small changes to Karma

    FYI, we are changing how Karma is stored on the back-end to make calculations faster and more efficient. As a result, we have to convert all the historical karma data which will take a few hours to process. In the mean time you may notice that the Karma graphs in profiles is incorrect. This...

    Mobile Forum Updates: Multi-line posts and thread creation

    Although our goal is to eventually make the normal forums mobile-friendly (like the News and Picture/Video galleries), we think the mobile forums needed some love. I've just deployed an update to let you write multi-line posts and create new threads in the mobile forums. Ciao!

    Back-end Forum updates

    I have just deployed some changes to the back-end of the NS Forums. Everything should look and work exactly the same as before, and if it doesn't then something is likely wrong. Please reply below if you have any strange behavior in the Forums today. I'll do my best to fix it ASAP.

    Forum Thread Ratings

    I have just deployed an update to add rating bars to Forum threads. If you haven't already noticed, it's at the bottom of the page when reading a thread. You may remember that we launched a new rating system earlier this summer that uses Up/Down ratings instead of a 10 point scale. This...

    Minor server upgrades

    For those of you who who were curious why NS was down briefly this morning, we were performing some software upgrades on the web servers. PHP has been upgraded to a newer series which gives us more tools to work with, and should also help performance during mid winter.
