Just had a look at NeoGAF for the first time in ages. So they no longer ban people there?

Can't ban the shitheels if they're the only thing keeping the site alive.

Yah it's still a garbage fire there, but in a different way than REE is a garbage fire.

Ree is the annoying "progressive" shithead uni kid and GAF is the drunk racist uncle who went to community college arguing at Thanksgiving who won't STFU and let us eat in peace.

Like this title change doesn't make any sense:

What? No, they're crazy fun at parties, look, they added a whole new subforum to archive all those hilarious moments the community has come up with in the last year.

Look, there's, uh, that time someone used a dreamcast to acess the forum. Crazy!

My point is that it is tranphobic to exclude in the broader categories. Like I said, if a person don't want to see black women in the default category we say "fuck you" because black women are women and to exclude them is racist.

so did resetti redesign themselves to look like gaf on purpose or did both sites just use the same ugly premade template?

They're boith trying to spin a xenoforo wide mandatory update if you want to stay secure as a special labour of love that they chose to develop and implement especially with the needs and desires of their users in mind, taking days if not weeks of hard work on their part to integrate

*Whew*

That was an exhausting 14 hours but we've finally gotten the site back up, upgraded to XenForo 2.0, with our brand new theme.
I wanted to provide a summary and post-mortem of what happened over the past 14 hours for those who are interested in what happened.

I originally estimated the maintenance period to take at least 6 hours, consisting of the XF 1.5 -> 2 upgrade, database maintenance / changes, and site configuration. Barring a few issues that set us back about 1-2 hours, this was relatively straightforward, consisting mostly of time to upgrade our sizable database.

At 7:45 PM PST, we decided to reopen the site to the public and immediately got flooded with traffic to the site, on par with what we see during E3 press conferences. At this point, our auto-scaling kicked in to add more resources to our server cluster to handle the influx of traffic. Normally, the worst that usually happens is you'll see intermittent availability for a minute or two as more servers come online.

With the upgrade to XF 2.0 however, we quickly noticed that, under production traffic, XF 2.0 requires significantly more compute resources than 1.5. Our database query distribution algorithms also needed to be tuned to distribute queries evenly amongst our DB cluster. We had performed similar configuration on the beta site, but after handling significantly larger traffic on the production site, we realized we needed to aggressively redistribute certain queries. Additionally, we discovered certain bugs within our version of XF 2.0 that were causing very long query times.

It took a few more hours, a lot of debugging, testing fixes, and debugging again before we were able to get back to normalcy. I wanted to thank everyone for their patience - it was a long day for us all.

Over the next few days, you may see some slowness or general site wonkiness. We're going to be working over the next few days to collect statistics that we will use to further tune our query distribution algorithms to more evenly spread load. You may see some UI bugs here and there - please report them in the Welcome Thread!

Thanks everyone, enjoy the new site!

Love,
delta

That's how Lore of all people was able to put it up randomly over a weekend without even doing an announcement months ahead of time. XF provided an easy upgrade to get everyone off the insecure version.

The only people who wouldn't do it are people who probably already customized everything enough that they could take care of the hole on their own or could do a backend upgrade near silently.

They wanted to reorganize how the forum was laid out because they wanted to crush the communities like Lore did infamously with Rock Band back in the old times.

The "feedback weekend" around it went so well, non of the mods would post in the thread, it ended on Friday and they transferred the thread to the admin forum so they could "examine it in detail" without distraction.
