Sounds good M@x!
We, your loyal servants will just have to peel ourselves away from the
screens and go back to our loved ones for a couple of hours.

For some reason, Foxtrot is now under "Singles, EPs, Fan Club & Promo"

If you select show topics, any given amount of time it seems to ie, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, it won't let you go past page 1 often without updating and showing no topics giving your time as one minute past of clicking on another page... worked once for me fine, other than that, I can't navigate past page 1.

OK , thanks for the help in reporting issues.
I fixed the:
- personal Reviews List missing - forum search is now working - active topics is ok
About Foxtrot , maybe a member edit the album type before the upgrade.
MESSAGE TO ADMIN: Please check the history of mod if the album ID #2 to see who did that, and why. If it's not a mistake , please ban member
Thanks you again , please continue posting issue here.

now I know I`m pretty much an idiot when it comes to computers but i can`t see any differences anywhere. Except that when I was writing a review on Renaissance`s Prologue album this morning it vanished halfway through and I had to start again.

Is there a time zone issue? Ever since I started on PA I've been at a zero hour offset to server time (I think we're in the same time zone - Eastern U.S. & Canada), but this morning I have to operate at +1.

I've had a few (well not in the past few hours) posting errors, including the spamming one.
And I wasn't spamming, it was my first post on P.A. for ages!

I don`t know, as I said I`m pretty much a complete idiot when it comes to computers but all kinds of crazy things have been happening to me on this site since this upgrade. It`s like some sort of poltergiest has taken up residence in my ancient computer. Things are vanishing before my eyes, sometimes the screen goes back to the previous screen, when I post something I get a warning against spamming, some pages take forever to load and the little emoticons don`t work. I checked the few other sites that I frequent and everything there is alright so I doubt it`s my piece of junk computer that hates my guts.

I've had some pretty crazy problems this morning
*active users at bottom of forum home won't load (none of us have an online-offline status) *I get an error after every post (although it still posts)
Server Error in Forum Application An error has occurred while sending an email. Please contact the forum administrator.
Support Error Code:- err_SQLServer_send_mail_footer File Name:- functions_send_mail.asp
Error details:- CDO.Message.1 The transport failed to connect to the server.
*active topics are still active after I view them
I think that's about it right now.

Right, that time zone issue is still there...don't know what that's all about. Just operate at an offset of +1 until it's resolved, that's what I'm doing.

I just updated my profile to be +1 from the Forum time, and now I am showing the right times.

I am still getting notifications but yesterday the preview pane stopped showing the post. In otherwords it is just blank. (see below)
I've checked my mail settings which seem fine and other mail is previewed correctly.
