I'm confused, where are all the timgul posts then? Are they all just vanished for the time being?
Edit I was going to go to TIMGUL to get some posts DJ_O had made about his releases of music songs, which I did about 30 of them.

TIMGUL was closed a few days ago and became a read only archive containing every post and songs. It was meant to remain open, but no more post were possible.

That was until of course Netham45 accidentally deleted everything. As of now, he got the database and Juju has been in contact with him to get it, but he hasn't replied to him yet.

Oh ok nice. I thought he didn't send it yet. Now of course, however, you might have to make sure the site even works properly at all :P (since your server might not be configured for SMF)

First of all, make sure e-mail notifications works.

My dad switched back to a USB modem. Unless anybody knows how to hack into the internet waves in it, I'm screwed.
I may not be on Omnimaga as much, but I am going back into programming, so cheers!

Hopefully you can visit from time to time. I noticed you were gone for a while actually.

Maybe spyro can help you find ways around :P

Well, for the time being I didn't think about contests, but I thought about maybe eventually having some song of the month or summer topics. Unfortunately I would not have much time to work on such thing, though, plus I am not sure about which rate of news posting could be done regarding music stuff (since front page is mostly site/calculator stuff)

One cool thing maybe would be if I eventually made some sort of TIMGUL Memories mix like the TIMGUL Rave mixes, using songs from the TIMGUL days.

Yeah, we could include music releases in front page news, I don't have anything against that.

As a sidenote, there was a 2-hour gap between two posts today: 17:30 to 19:50 local.
Due to dissatisfaction, I will be inactive on Omnimaga until further notice. (?? THP hasn't been much success and there's also the CE. I might possibly be here for a while.)
If you want to implore me to come back, or otherwise contact me, I can be found on GitHub (bluebear94), Twitter (@melranosF_), Reddit (/u/Fluffy8x), or e-mail (if you know my address). As a last resort, send me a PM on Cemetech (bluebear94) or join Touhou Prono (don't be fooled by the name). I've also enabled notifications for PMs on Omnimaga, but I don't advise using that since I might be banned.

Do you mean the timezone got messed up again (like when the site jumped straight from 3 PM to 9 or something) or do you mean nobody posted for that time period? I noticed that tends to happen early in the morning and at that time, although there was a time where there was at least one new post every 15 minute or so.

On another hand, however, I noticed that we got a few more 200-ish post days recently (although the site has a different timezone now, but it still gives a rough idea of how active it is). I was surprised of this considering Xeda is inactive for the Summer and how two of our Casio guys went less active.

I meant that nobody posted for over 2 hours, and 200-ish post days ARE surprising.

Aaah ok thanks for the clarification. :) At least it's better than when I left for work during morning after replying to every active thread, then when returning from work 8 hours later, there were like one or two new posts. But of course it isn't as great as when we consistently had 400 post days ;) (about 40% of what SMF support got in a day)

Imagine that. I would be clicking the refresh button every 2 minutes and no new posts for up to 8 hours.
