Some progress

So as you may already know, the forums are back up, however the Weapons DB is not.

There was some changes on my hosts end that change how some php extensions themselves were loaded and in turn caused the site to basically shit itself in fear.

The forums seem happy with the fix I was able to implement, but it in turn caused the Weapons DB to no work in a different fashion. Basically I have to modify how the Weapons DB accesses the SQL backend slightly.

Like always I have no ETA on this, It gets done when I can, though I will fix it as soon as I can.

Somethings Wrong

For some reason the PhpBB forums don't want to load correctly. I am looking into this issue, and I am trying to get it fixed as fast as I can.
Since the DB is linked to the forums I will disable the account sharing and that should have the issue fixed as far as having the DB accessible.

Also all of the data is still intact, though i have made a backup just to be safe.

Cisco Telepresence

So I've been pretty busy over the last couple of months working on a fairly large scale project at my college. Basically another student and myself have taken it upon ourselves to build a complete voice and video network to show off our networking and system administration skills. Our college purchased two Cisco CTS-500-37 Telepresence units (Each runs between $30-68 grand each) and nobody there really knew how to set them up and run them. So after struggling for over a month with them, we finally managed to get both units running and to talk to each other.

New Frontpage

As you can all see, I have moved away from my old custom front-page to a more modern CMS system. Basically my own implementation was a very old and rough version of the core system that drives the Borderlands DB. I also wanted a more user friendly system to update since I am planning on using this site a bit more as my online portfolio instead of just the Borderlands DB + Forums.

Also, registering and commenting on this front-page is disabled and that probably won't change anytime soon.
