Also, a reminder: Staff Challenge 5 - The deadline for this challenge is being extended to December 10th to give more leeway. I know a lot of people mentioned not taking up the challenge because of NaNo committments, so we are throwing in some extra time so that you can join.]]> Sun, 29 Nov 2009 16:00:26 +0000 http://www.harrypotterpodcast.com/forums/index.php?/topic/59056-queue-closure/ http://www.harrypotterpodcast.com/forums/index.php?/topic/58087-growing-pains-updated/ maybe 10,000 users. Today, we can boast almost 100,000 registered members on the archive, and an immeasurable amount of guests. The forums alone have over 20,000 members.

Clearly, we've grown.

Unfortunately, all of this growth has caused a bit of a strain on our server resources and, recently, users have been reporting issues with uploading icons and personal photos here on the forums. When we looked into the issue today, we discovered the problem is that the server is FULL!! I can't tell you all the ways in which that is sort of the coolest thing ever - but I can tell you the ways in which it's awful.

To help combat our little growing pains problem, Jay will be purging all of the user uploaded documents at the forum. This will, of course, include icons and personal photos. This is being done to remove the files that are tied to disused accounts. While it should not impact users who have hosted these files externally and inserted the link into the avatar change page, if your icon/personal photo has gone missing, please re-upload it/re-host it and re-insert it through your settings panel.

Thanks for working with us on this one

[UPDATE - you will also notice that all previous avatars from the base gallery have been removed and replaced with icons made by the WONDERFUL people at TDA. Seriously, a huge congratulations should go out to them for making all of the lovely. If you are not yet a TDA artist, please feel free to visit this thread at the TDA forums to read the submission guidelines for entering icons into the HPFF base gallery. It won't be updated often but putting your icons there will be a sure fire way to get them in front of my face when I do make the upload ]]]> Sun, 18 Oct 2009 22:28:34 +0000 http://www.harrypotterpodcast.com/forums/index.php?/topic/58087-growing-pains-updated/ http://www.harrypotterpodcast.com/forums/index.php?/topic/57700-staff-tutorial-updates/ Terms of Service and Site Rules, the staff are working on updating and adding additional archive tutorials.
