That explains a lot. I tried tweeting both the forumosa accounts I found to no avail regarding the outage. Didn’t know there was a Fb as well.
Can’t believe I was the only one to find the Line account…
I thought some butthurt CCP hAcKeRzz had permanently taken down this place for a few hours yesterday. In my search for information, I noticed Forumosa’s Twitter hasn’t been updated in like 5 years. Probably should make it active again to keep people in the loop.
I didn’t even think of it, which is what I get for not participating much in the lolz of social media.
Yeah! One was just a TON of tweets saying there had been replies to threads (wut) and the other I noticed hadn’t been touched but I figured I would @ it anyway hoping someone would get my distress beacon.
That was my first thought too.
Hi folks - thank you for hanging in there with us.
Here is what happened from my perspective:
- Image embedding stopped working a few days ago - which I now understand shuts off when we run out of disk space
- Over the past 10 days, disk usage jumped from 70% to 99%
- Our US-based tech support checked-in with us if we noticed the forum downtime and advised we resize our server hard drive
- Although I have since learned it is really easy to do that, I hadn’t done it before so decided to hold off attempting the resize until tech support and I were awake at the same time (I doubled our server size)
Next time the image embedding feature stops working, we will:
- check the disk usage
- Post to Facebook, LINE and Twitter
- Contact tech support about a need to reconfigure our server again

Is our server running on a Virtual box image or Docker container?
I assume it is in a Docker container, but I did not set it up myself
FB? Tried that and got nothing. And Twitter, last tweet 2015!
But we did make an update on FB yesterday.
If a tree falls in the forest, and there’s nobody around to hear, does it make a sound?
As always, I’m visiting the forum from my mobile. For some reason, now I get a vibration feedback every time I one post.
Did you guys change something?
Don’t look a gift vibration in the mouth.
I think I’ll need to request the daily like limit to be increase again…
Special request from Dr_Milker.
Didn’t see it!
Could it be a Discorse thing?
