Database errors out the ass

[E.J.]

I am getting so many database errors, it's ridiculous. I get one when visiting almost every thread. I'm pretty sure you said it was fixed, staff. What's up with this?

SpDude fixed the main issue that crippled the entire site, that doesn't mean everything is dandy with all the users. I myself couldn't get on until today, so yeah, problem solved in the mainstream at the very least.

[EDIT]

Actually:

The database that contains user signatures was malfunctioning, so that any page on the forum that displayed a signature would generate a database error. This is why so many of you received them when going to specific threads. We've been working with the server host to fix the issue, and hopefully we've got it fixed for good this time. If it goes down again it could be the signature database or another related database. But now, you know why.

Here's hoping against that happening. ;p

Although this may seem extremist, I'll be disabling my signature just in case, even though it won't help that much.

D: My sig, while small, will be gone until I'm sure the site is fine.

So the problem with the database errors was all from a image in someones signature. Right?

I doubt the amount of signatures had much to do with it. It was just an error in the database itself.
Then again I'm no pro at this stuff. Just a wild guess. :B But I suppose they would have disabled our signatures automatically if it was because of that.

-melts at the kitty in your sig-

Not the amount, but I think the processing. Leaving the sigs on actually helps to identify if the error will occur again. Turning them off does help to prevent it. I'm sure if it does mess up again they will disable sigs and see. This is all my guessing as well, though. But the site seems stable now.

Alright. Well, I hope it's completely resolved in the future.

LOL it always seems to be one error after another. We fix one and another one happens. OH THE HUMANITY!!!

Interesting. I have signatures off and I was still getting those errors.

It might not just be signatures, could be multiple things causing it.
