We had some problems with the billing department. We're back up though.

it would appear that hostgator removed our redirects...

www.amkon.net (http://www.amkon.net) takes you to an old ass start page... with no links to forums...

dammit

I just found out a way to get some loot over. Not having a bank account makes things like that kind of tough.

Remind all the fine folks around how exactly to do that again please?

I've learned to tune out everything except what I'm trying to focus on.

I think its all the years of flashing pr0n banners.

If there's pr0n... you SHOULD be looking lol

Not the flashy ads though. Those are like the chicks without panties on at the bar. You could hit that shit for sure, but who wants leakage, memory or otherwise.

Name the page that is to load with ...kon.net/ as index.html or index.php is php. Almost all servers use it as a default. Why redirect 301 to just get to the main page?

Name the page that is to load with ...kon.net/ as index.html or index.php is php. Almost all servers use it as a default. Why redirect 301 to just get to the main page?

because for some reason, there's a different file by the name of index.html...

and if I rename the current splash page (start.html), you get 404's from some links on the site...

thus... the 301 to start.html.

I suppose I could go through and fix all the links and stuff... but meh...

redirect is fine.

The index page looks like some BS parked page for the site before it was in use. The 404 is built into it.

You misunderstood I think lol

I meant that if I change the landing page's file name to index.php... it kills some of the links around here (I've noticed..)

hp
10-20-2009, 12:31 AM
Don't see how links would stop it but I take it as true.

pack3tg0st
10-20-2009, 12:36 AM
because the links go to start.php...

I tried renaming start.php to index.php...

but, it breaks our links... (Mach III voting, and a few others)

It was set up as a redirect back in the day lol

edit: :lol:

I had a dumb moment...

I could TOTALLY redirect start.php to index.php

same effect... but a little more "correct" lol

Make your donations or else.

Make the markup in index.html and start.html the same. (what is in start). they both accomplish the same thing at that point.

Hey.... admin fuckhead types...

Put the new site online so I can post things without the nagging suspicion that it will all be gone in three months.

Finish tweaking as you go and let's get rid of this POS software.

it won't disappear, I'll import the database from here before we swap...

but we're not even sure where we want our hosting to be...

and we still haven't heard from Jasn...

Cogburn

I'm referring to another AmKon Edit.

It'd be nice if our hard work didn't go up in smoke every 3 months.

I'd like to post some more shit, but I'm waiting for the new software.

The future is deleting it's past several times a year. If the CERN machine can, why not a forum.

10-22-2009, 01:50 PM
LOL I back this shit up every few days now...

amkon edit shouldn't happen anymore... the DB is fixed (for the most part), and we shouldn't have to restore from a backup...

The future must have decided your smites should be revoked. There is nothing any one can do to change this fact. Even it they could be restored, the future would get them again.

Probably because of the SQL backup I just downloaded...

kept the SQL server busy for a sec...

shoudl really honestly be okay by now lol

(I have to use mysqldump to get the backups remember, the phpbb backup is fundamentally retarded.)

Poo on Jasn... he's so concerned about AmKon he forgot to update the billing info.

I nominate BE for site owner. You're all fired.
