Byron Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 The reason why it was queued was that there was a bug with the server that /everyone/ had. I fixed that like two hours ago. His site was actually showing the queued page even after you fixed the bug. I changed his domain a couple of days ago from: handmadebyerika.heliohost.org to handmadebyerika.com and it hasn't resolved yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khallows Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 Well the server load images are kinda reserved for the administrators. Your domain is showing active in the database which is par for it to become active tomorrow. Just try and have a little patience and leave the nameservers as they are and you can check it first thing in the morning. Aren't you an admin? Lol? I have the registar temp. forwarding the domain to another place. The name servers are going to HelioHost.org though. I've logged into cPanel and the main domain still hasn't changed Do you think it's possible, if the domain doesn't change by friday; that djbob can add me to the top of the queue or manually change it?

jje Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Oops - sorry. Khallows asked me for it and I gave him/her the code. Removed it from his sig. If your domain isn't working in 24 hours then I'll escalate this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 jje I'm going to go ahead and escalate this since he's still seeing his original domain name at his cpanel. @djbob: I changed his domain about 3 days ago from: handmadebyerika.heliohost.org to handmadebyerika.com and he's still seeing handmadebyerika.heliohost.org at his cpanel.

Hopefully it's just taking a while because of the transfers/crashes we've had lately. As for the Sig, why am I not allowed to have it. Lol, I feel like I broke some rule but I have no clue what Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to ask Wizard, he's second in command around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvt Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Perhaps integrating the server load in to the Forum layout (say, top right maybe?) would remove the need to have it in anyone's signature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just try and have a little patience and leave the nameservers as they are and you can check it first thing in the morning. Aren't you an admin? Lol? Right, Byron is, and you are not. Every time that image loads, server resources are being used. Yes this is minimal with something simple like Bryon's script, but letting users put anything they want in their sigs sets a scary precedent, especially when like Bryon said, the image is reserved for admins. As per my original post, my question was exactly that--a question. I wasn't accusing you of anything. If you can give a good reason regarding why you need the server load image in your signature, then I'll probably allow it. However, simply "why not?" does not seem like a reasonable argument to me. @rvt that's probably a better idea than what we have now. Someone should talk to djbob about hosting stats onsite (heliohost.org.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone should talk to djbob about hosting stats onsite (heliohost.org.) I am sorry about that question Aren't you an admin? Lol? I did not know he was responding about the Sig. Well the server load images are kinda reserved for the administrators. I took this to mean server load images as in the tables Admin's can see of the queue. That is why I was asking how come he himself cannot see it. I thought he was saying something else. Sorry I had limited time to reply. The reason I put it up was because I wanted to be able to see it any time I was on the forum. Sometimes there isn't an admin in sight and I cannot find the server load without going to the server load link. I didn't think it would be too much because Stevie handles 22,000 + users and this forum. Loading a few hundred of those Sigs would equal maybe half a minute spent on a website hosted on Stevie. If it's such a big problem and seems to set such a rebellious image for Users against Admins/Stevie's resources I won't bother. I will just wait for the stats to be integrated. But enough talk about this stuff It's taking up too much of Stevie's and our time. A simple heads up would have worked Sorry if I'm completely wrong and Sig's do take more resources then inferred.

Ashoat Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Admins: Let's continue the discussion in the moderator forum. Let me know what scripts you want me to put up on heliohost.org and I can probably stick them up. khallows: Okay, you should have the new domain now.
