 		I have posted the first of several upcoming updates that should help the stability of MtgFanatic.com. It seems that our site has been crashing relatively frequently in recent weeks, and I believe I have identified the problem. Unfortunately, the updates will have to come in steps. Each update, there will be a number of things being updated on the back end of the website, and this could cause parts of the website to break. I need your input. If you notice anything that is broken that was recently working, please let me know. Thank you.

My FRP still isn't working and I haven't been receiving points for at least a months time. I've contacted you multiple times and still haven't gotten a response from anyone.

edit: I also don't see anything wrong with the site. It works just fine. The only thing I was concerned about was when the site was down for a bit a few days ago. It's not anymore (obviously) so everything is okay.

Will do; but I never even noticed the site was that unstable to begin with.

Cheers

I just added you back in. Sorry about that.

This is exactly what I am talking about. The site has been crashing relatively frequently. Hopefully this will not be an issue going into the future emoticon

I think a cool thing to add would be when you sign in and make a list of things you buy that they stay with your account. For like the next time you log in.

I really like this site.

Another cool thing but just an idea you should have featured deck of the day or something. Just an idea.

Well I am not sure if it is a result of the new fixes, or something else entirely, but I can no longer access my thread Dre's Haves/Wants. Same goes for that of maxx01. Those are the only ones I've noticed so far. Thanks.

The Legacy Round table, also isn't working. I kind of thought that Ken might of broken it with a bad MTGDECK tag or something, but it might be something else if there are multiple threads not working.

it's [i*] before and [/i*] after the text, without the *s. It ends up Like This

Yeah I'm aware, or you can just highlight the words and use the italics button. In either case, it's because I must've been holding shift because I had put curly brackets for the beginning...emoticon. Fixed it. My bad.

I can quote people that have not spoken?

!Error converting quote: ResponseID was not found. The quoted post may have been deleted.!And quote people who have not posted

!Error converting quote: ResponseID was not found. The quoted post may have been deleted.! This seems like a serious flaw to me, because people can now be misquoted

Chris, you should make it so that you can't edit quote text

!Error converting quote: ResponseID was not found. The quoted post may have been deleted.! And also make it harder to quote people that are not involved, instead of using resp.ID as the quote method

HTML tags are all good, but it should probably be given different tag so that people with common sense can't 'hack' or misquote people.

That said, none of the people above actually said that. It was all me. As an example of qhat should be fixed.

I haven't noticed any new breaks, I have noticed the pages load quicker. The one thing I have noticed is when I rate a deck the pages reloads to reflect that I have rated it down under the deck above the comment section but the stars don't update until I refresh the page again.

Deck Submissions are acting a bid weird today... I will try another machine; but I think that it is from the MTGFanatic end of things.
