Suggest backing up these details to an external, reliable site since any unforeseeable future outages would render this info inaccessible. One suggestion is Wikipedia Forumosa.com - 维基百科，自由的百科全书 which could also benefit from an update and, hmmmm, why not an English version?

No.

To give you some context, it happened when lots of people where commenting on the earthquake thread. I was kicked out and had to login again. Then the message showed up until I closed the site and open again.

Some advanced searches do not work anymore

e.g. in:unseen status:noreplies
https://tw.forumosa.com/search?expanded=true&q=in%3Aunseen%20status%3Anoreplies

here same search on other Discourse server
https://meta.discourse.org/search?expanded=true&q=in%3Aunseen%20status%3Anoreplies

This site is in read only mode. Please continue to browse, but replying, likes, and other actions are disabled for now.

There is automatic maintenance everyday at 11:30 AM which takes almost 10 minutes.
Can it be moved to 01:30 AM at night?

And what about the previous search issue?

[tempogain]

I can’t imagine what’s going on with the search, but I guess it’s not going to inconvenience anyone too much

We’re working on the maintenance

[slawa]

For search issues you should look into the error logs.
And post on Discourse forum for help.

Did a whole bunch of pictures (mostly avatars) disappear for everyone in the last ~24h or just for me?

[unwat]

Everything has been normal for me all day 11 am to now. No missing avatars or uploaded pictures or anything.

yeah summink like that

A few hours ago I saw my avatar in the top right but not anywhere else. Now it’s the other way around. A few others are still missing though.

I still can’t see the photo in this post either, which is unlike the disappearances from old threads because it’s from 7 hours ago.

I’ve seen some missing avatars too. I thought they just removed them

Hi folks - I am sorry about the confusion. We knew we would max out our server space again. Still working on the expansion. Give us a couple days to sort this out (it doesn’t actually take a this long - but I’m booked with non-Forumosa-related stuff at the moment)

@GooseEgg

max out our server space again

Probably because @papertowel changes his profile pic too often

[papertowel]

I’ve only ever had 2 avatars and this one I’m sticking with because it suits my name. I think the main culprit is the pictures you dm to me of another member’s mother.

@papertowel

the pictures you dm to me of another member’s mother

I have pictures of all the mothers

This brand’s better. I know a family that uses them.

I’m just amused you made this exact same post 2½ years ago.

@yyy

One small problem, we’re either missing some avatars or missing some letters-in-lieu-of-avatars.

That’s not a picture, it’s a video.
These blank avatars remind me of NPC Wojak •⎳•
