Freaky...

Here is what the board looks like for me most of the time:

 

[Freak]

Did this just start today? Is anyone else having this problem. Looks like you are not able to see any images at all. That's not what I see. Are you running any firewall software?

 

[milohimself]

Yes, but nothing different than I have been running before. I'll turn them off to see if it quits. The board does show up properly sometimes, though. It's on and off. This has been going for about two days now.

 

[Freak]

Others please chime in if you are having this problem or not.

The only thing i can think of is tweaked some board settings to keep others from posting images from here and eating up my bandwidth.

 

[OWB]

I'm not having a problem with it....

 

[milohimself]

I've seen options on some boards to have hosted images expire after a given amount of time. Try that.

 

[Freak]

i turned on hotlink protection which keep other websites from linking to our images and using my bandwidth instead of theirs.

I am not sure about the hosted images expiring after a certain amount of time. Explain?

 

[milohimself]

I've seen on some boards, images in threads that are very old are not there any more. The board I was on had about 700-1000 users on at any given time and probably a couple thousand posts a day, so eliminating older hosted images had to be an automated feature. The board was not an Invision board, though, so I'm not sure if you can do it or not. But it certainly saves a lot of bandwidth.

Alright, I just shut down one of my numerous firewall programs and the board is magically working again. I think it has to do with cookie deletion, is there any specific cookies I should keep to keep the board running smooth for me?

 

[Freak]

Really the cookies should only affect your login and posts since last visit. Really shouldn't affect images. :dunno:

 

[milohimself]

Oops... I was looking at the wrong firewall. Some personal information coming up. Let's continue this convo through PM's, shall we?

 

[Freak]

Surely.

 

[milohimself]

Now that we have that out of the way... How's about some bracket updates?

 

[Freak]

Should be done already. Both men and women.

 

[milohimself]

I'm not seeing any Sweet 16 teams on the men's side yet...

 

[Freak]

Try hitting refresh. They are updated. GAVol leads with 38 points.
