Question

It's awesome when....

Answer 1

It's awesome when you:

☼ Can't see anyone's SmartScore
☼ Can't fan or give medals (or if you did, it won't go through)
☼ Can't send PMs
☼ Can't post answers. Your answers get deleted WHILE you're helping someone. Like, you can't even hit the "post" button deleted.
☼ Subsequently can't help anyone in a reasonable amount of time, frustrating you, and the person who needs help.

What's going on today? :-/

Answer 2

The site was down, due to an imprudent user.

Answer 4

Thanks. This definitely helps explain things. Wow! Hope you guys can fix it soon! :-/

Answer 5

I hope so too. There are still a few glitches, but I think its getting back to normal. (:

Answer 6

Oh, that's great news! Would it help if users were logged off? Oh, he's gone. What do you think, @Agent_Sniffles

Answer 7

And will our work be accounted for? Will our SmartScore still be calculated, even if we can't see it?

Answer 8

I have no idea.
But some idiot hacked the system, so that's why it's down..It should be fixed by Monday

Answer 9

Oh, man. :-/ I got medals, but on my profile, it doesn't even show that I answered questions. NO!!! D; I hope this can be fixed. I gave out medals for students, but those probably didn't go through either.. fingers crossed.

Answer 10

*fingers crossed that they will go through.

Answer 11

And might this problem have anything to do with my complete inability to "verify my email" on TWO DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS?

I created my first account using an AOL email address about 15-20 hours ago but was never sent a validation email no matter how many times I hit the "resend email" button, and I just created this account about an hour or so ago using a verizon.net email address and I STILL can't get a validation email sent to that one either!!

Answer 12

eww, why AOL?

Answer 13

:)

Answer 14

It's a throwaway account I use for registering myself on websites like these. I view all sites as potential spam generators, so I avoid using my home email address like the plague.

Answer 15

I *was able to view the SS of nearly everyone. but now they're all red and blank again. Anyways, last time I checked, before it glitched again, my SS raised and I received old PM's and notifications. I don't *think* you need to worry about those, at least for now.

Answer 16

*Whew* That's great to hear. :) It gives some legit hope, where all I was feeling was frustration. :D Thanks, jazy!

Answer 17

But seriously @Frustratedashell come on, AOL? lol Gmail's the thing, friend. :D

Answer 18

thats debatable

Answer 19

Answer 20

@Sean_Le_Van So you did it? Meh... I read how sorry you were on that other link. You're okay. I can't be too angry with ya. :) And no it isn't! Do you have a Gmail? If you did, you would know how undebatable that statement was.

Answer 21

I have Gmail.

Answer 22

And I love it. Like the calling, video chat ect.

Answer 23

You see? Gmail, people. Gmail. :D Did you know they have an "undo send" feature in the labs? I love that thing! :D And the emojji!

Answer 24

Answer 25

undo send is so cool ya

Answer 26

Answer 27

Answer 28

Exactly! :3

Answer 29

@Sean_Le_Van
Ya little wingspan! Why don't you hack somebody like WBC or alex jones or the KKK or some chinese military site? Why do you bring down a site like this one?

You think you're real cute because you can't be "stopped" and you have everybody talking about you.

Well you aren't cute. You're just some little attention seeking jerkwater narcissist with a computer. So maybe we can't stop you, but someday you'll become a grownup and realize that the world has left you behind.

F'ing little creep.

Answer 30

Whoa, there @Frustratedashell ! You may want to be careful. We're all pretty frustrated about this, but calling someone an "f'ing little creep" isn't going to fix it. That also breaches the os Code of Conduct, by the way - and you don't want to do that! :/

Answer 31

Omg, I really love the filter. (; lol

Answer 32

And I vote Gmail! (:

Answer 33

Gmail all the way! :D

Answer 34

Gmail FTW

Answer 35

@tafkas77

You're right. Calling him names doesn't do any good - beyond making me feel better for letting him know my opinion of him and his pathetic little alligator-teared "I'm so sorry" avatar.

I have no time for people like him.

Answer 36

Ha ha, definitely. It's official. Gmail campaign.

Ah, well, I guess you gotta do what you gotta do. But please be careful. if a mod were to catch you doing something like this again, they could suspend you fro breaking the OS code of conduct. If you don't like not being able to use the site properly now, try not being able to use it all... that would definitely suck. :/

Answer 37

@tafkas77 i like you attitutude

*gives a medal *

Answer 38

Wow, thank you @AravindG ! :)
