Sometimes notifications don't send.
Notifications are sent by the server forum is on, but claim to be sent by Tiff's private email address.
Some anti-spam systems may get suspicious about that.
Userpics will load one week and not thee next
I do have problem with KJ's pic not loading - but that's the only one hosted not "inside forum" but on Imageshack. Not forum's fault.
new post signals never show up.
For a long time the skin was missing the image for the new post signal - but this has been fixed a while ago, I see them every time...
It didn't used to be that way, but it's been starting to act up since I came back a few months ago and bringing it up in IRC KJ said he noticed things getting a little lame recently as well. Lill may have said some stuff had gotten weird too, but I'm not sure. If there are things that refuse to update because they have errors, then something is definitely wrong somewhere and it's not really going to get better with another update.
Have anyone tried running the consistency check in the maintenance tab of the admin panel?
And yes, I am defending the forum, in a way. Call it a bit of a professional pride.
I found that the notifications, as well as messages from google+ were getting caught in the spam filter by gmail (hurr hurr) as I had suspected might be the case. As for the pic, I see it load at some times and then a couple minutes later, it won't, then later, it will. It could be the forum, it could be image shack, but I will say that image shack is retarded as (profanity).
The image it's supposed to be is

As for profile pics, only today has hariman's pic shown up for me, and like I said, mine has been spectacularly indecisive on whether or not it wants to show.
