Keith Houchen Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 It has its own section! How is that hiding it? But yeah, it's just you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members CleetusVanDamme Posted February 9, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted February 9, 2017 BBW is the only British promotion worthy of the main forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MungoChutney Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I actually agree that ICW and Progress have probably outgrown the sub forum. However, as soon as their threads were in the main froum you'd get every shitarse promotion complaining that they deserve it as well. Can't blame the mods for not wanting to listen to that.

Paid Members Carbomb Posted February 9, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted February 9, 2017 This has all been debated extensively and in detail. The creation of the sub-forum came about specifically to remedy what was happening before, i.e. the thread getting clogged up with BritWres promotional threads. The vast majority of people who read On Topic are predominantly WWE, TNA, NJPW and lucha viewers, so it made sense to put the UK stuff in a sub-forum; anyone who's interested in BritWres will have already made the effort to find this forum, so they're equally likely to be happy to go that one click further.

Keith Houchen Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Only ever happens on my work PC, sometimes the screen freezes and a page takes ages to load, and every single time, bAz has posted on the page in question. So thanks for killing time at work, bAz!

Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted March 19, 2017 Awards Moderator Share Posted March 19, 2017 Wonderful to have the place back again. Do we need to do another donation to prevent it happening again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members mim731 Posted March 19, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 19, 2017 Having never gone the step to paid, how's the easiest way to do that? I really missed this place during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Dem Wanz Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Agreed, after sifting through the shite over at Wrestling Forum and Wreddit this week I'm more than happy to chuck some funds in the bucket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Was it actually a funding issue? I mean the domain and webpages were still available, it was just a fault with the database according to the message I saw. Perhaps something the hosts could have fixed in five minutes if they'd been notified - but I'm only guessing of course, so it's a genuine question.

Admin Moo Posted March 19, 2017 Admin Share Posted March 19, 2017 The DB fell over and did so in such a way it didn't trigger any automated alerts to me. I got back from UFC last night and went online and saw it was down and then rebooted everything. I'll make sure I share some details with the mods so they can alert me manually in the future so this can be resolved much quicker. Â Sorry gang. Donations are still open (and I still fund the hosting directly out of my own pocket, outside of any kind donations that come in of course. There's a paypal link at http://donate.ukff.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Au Posted March 28, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted March 28, 2017 Whilst the board was down, I thought we could do with a reliable fall back and the subreddit and Otter were still dead so setting up a chatroom seemed like a good idea so there's a new one on Slack.  For anyone who doesn't use Slack for work, it's a very stable and reliable platform that's available on both mobile app and desktop in browser.  It can be found at https://theukff.slack.com/ but needs new members to be invited via email. I've got it set so any member can invite new members but there's currently only four of us so anyone who wants in, DM me your address and I'll invite you.
