Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[DMSIuser78]

Whoa, anyone else getting lots of SQL errors when trying to access the site?

Yes.

@Shannon One of the times I got an SQL error, it included the error code 1203, saying that the user already has more than 'max_user_connections' active connections.

I googled this error, and it seems that the solution is to have the provider you're hosted on increasing the max_user_connections setting for your server.

Edit: Never mind.

Had some questions about 6G. But maybe I should wait until 6G is fully developed before asking them.


Edit 2: Might as well ask them,

Will the manifestation times in 6G be similar to previous generations of subs?

How long will manifestation (MYP 6G) take in 6G on average?

How far back (in time) will TID from 6G be?

How long break will be needed (to avoid turbulence) between 6G programs?

When are you going to stop asking me questions I can't answer yet?

Will you be upgrading every single 3G, 4G and 5G program to 6G, or just the more ‘essential’ ones?

Eventually, ALL of my programs will be either upgraded to 6G or discontinued.

Really looking forward to some of the 4G programs being upgraded to 6G

I plan to start saving up, very soon, for MYP FWB 6G, and maybe for a few more MYP 6G titles (hopefully they are high up on the list of what’s to upgrade first, after ASC and the custom sub). Hopefully, MYP FWB 6G will get me my ‘perfect for me’ FWB

Shannon I was wondering

If using Paypal to buy a sub, does it include Paypal Credit or do you the merchant not allow that? is it like an option you tick or is it out of your control?


just thinking of making it easier to buy LTU when I run it.

Cheers

That is not in my area of knowledge. I don't handle that aspect of the business.

Ben any ideas on this mate?

Not Ben, but yes it does work if PPC is available to you. PayPal doesn't care what you're buying. I used it myself for LTU4. 6 months to pay with no interest.

Hmm it's not showing for me. Asks me to use my debit or CC instead.

I did just add it earlier today so maybe I need to wait a while?

Shannon, I have been concerned for several weeks now about your health,abitlites to continue at this 'break neck speed' and all things related ,good gawd man. it really does sound like a vacation is in order . burning the candel at both ends and then some...please consider a vacation,soon, man. its a win win for all concerned!! respectfully. Keith.
I dont mind waiting for UMS and other titles to come out even if its two months or more from now. if your fresh and alert the quality,the focus and all things needed for this to all come together wont suffer,not nearly as much. again plz consider.

The issue is on the host side. We're working on it.

I have concluded that after I publish LTU5, I will be taking 1-2 weeks off to rest. If I burn out that will be 2-4 months, and that cannot happen. Don't worry, I've got this.

AFAIK, Paypal credit is available only to US residents...

[Nara]

Yeah. It's US Residents only. I was so excited when I got the email from Paypal. Thinking now I can get LTU on installment. But it turned out only works if you are an US Resident.

Good to know. I wasn't aware of paypal credit until now. So paypal lends you the money basically and you pay them back?

Yes!! I dont mind saying Loudly and Proudly "Fukin' A,Man! Fukin'A!!" Now thats what Im "Tolkien"! Good deal! about! Ha!

[LiquidMind]

Nah it's available to UK too. I have it activated on my account. My friend at work also used it to buy some pc upgrades with his. Maybe it's region specific?

Hmm not sure what is causing this then tbh

I'm upgrading the forum behind the scenes and once that is complete we will also have a new host. We have had a handful of odd issues with this current host. Sorry about the downtime folks
