Thanks for everything everyone has done to get the site back up. I don't have a clue but I imagine it wasn't easy.

That is all. New site is a bit bright. Can someone make a thing to make it look like it used to be?

dabeshu · « **Reply #1 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 15:27:50 »

Finally.

Triple that! Oh now I just sound silly. But it's good to have geekhack back...

Welcome back...
To that same old place that you laughed about.
Those dreams have remained and they've turned around.
Who'd have thought they'd lead ya, back here where we need ya.

Not sure how many here are old enough to get that though...

i3oilermaker · « **Reply #7 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 19:29:37 »

I created a new thread and now it is awaiting approval from moderators....I hope this will not be the norm...

mkawa · « **Reply #8 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 19:44:46 »

only group buy thread starts are moderated

jonnybastard · « **Reply #9 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 19:46:58 »

What is the turn around going to be get a thread going?

dorkvader · « **Reply #11 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 20:38:47 »

I'm pretty surprised this all happened so fast. I'm also glad GH seems to be back.

I imagine approving posts will happen pretty quickly, but I wouldn't make any judgments on that until everything is back/done/finished.

I like the small font options, but not the post editor thus far.

rknize · « **Reply #12 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 20:42:43 »

We're still playing around with things, but it seems to be getting better.

mkawa · « **Reply #13 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 20:43:05 »

everything (yes, including/especially) the theme is provisional at this point. no posts were lost, but we aren't displaying everything at the moment either

terrpn · « **Reply #14 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 20:50:27 »

mucho grats.............

thanks guys for getting us back up

OddOne · « **Reply #15 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 21:32:16 »

Thanks for getting the site back on line.

~~Currently I cannot see the Classified or Group Buy forums though... is this an item that is not turned 'on' yet?~~ <-- never mind, they appeared for me after posting this...

dsjbirch · « **Reply #16 on:** Wed, 18 July 2012, 21:36:18 »

I also cannot see the classifieds, but am hoping this will rectify it.

At least one - but at this point, all the theme songs of the era have kinda blurred into the bassline from Barney Miller.

Couldn't care less about the Graphics here. JUST as long as you are here and running.

I feel like an addict that has just got his major fix........now everything is so relaxxxiiinnnggggg.

I couldn't care less about the world right now. After all, Geekhack is now here. It's a very pathetic life I lead here.

Nice to see the forum back indeed. Also the new theme is much better than the eye-searing orange

Nunez · « **Reply #23 on:** Thu, 19 July 2012, 05:22:15 »

Loving the SMF, though not sure about the colour scheme yet. Its good to be back, I had to resort to spending my money on Audio and computer parts

TheSoulhunter · « **Reply #24 on:** Thu, 19 July 2012, 05:28:39 »

Finally!

But yes, a dark theme would be nice...

mkawa · « **Reply #25 on:** Thu, 19 July 2012, 06:05:04 »

you need more posts before you can access those areas of the forum, as noted in the welcome thread

Moparx · « **Reply #29 on:** Thu, 19 July 2012, 09:27:18 »

It is great to see that the forum is back up.

hahaha, yeah, i asked, if it gets resolved, that's fine... if not, i don't mind having a bit of a sense of humor about it.

Awesome work everyone. It feels like I was over seas for a bit, but now I'm finally home!

DanGWanG · « **Reply #42 on:** Thu, 19 July 2012, 14:39:09 »

One thing I will say about GH being down, is that I've learned to appreciate this site more than ever. Having a place to call home is a privilege in this case. It opened my eyes to see other communities but none felt as good as GH. Glad to see everyone back and doing well

The site was hacked by a group of a-holes... so it was redesigned from the ground up to be faster and more stable using the Simple Machines forum software vs. the previous vBulletin forum software. A lot of work still remains... You can check more details and some of the history of it over at deskthority here

mynt · « **Reply #44 on:** Thu, 19 July 2012, 17:35:49 »

ZioExcalibur · « **Reply #46 on:** Thu, 19 July 2012, 19:11:06 »
