It's interesting to see that the archives also contain the Posts of the former HelpToGo site.....
They say a lot...
MUCH indeed...

Thanks Rockster. You have sprung forth a new day to the Help site. May the flood gates open and people start rolling in.
Will there be any e-mails sent out to the former/lost members to alert them of Helps return?

@BA1 - Sorry- missed this comment somehow. ๐Ÿ˜„
Yes, that's the plan. Just need to write something up. ๐Ÿ˜…

@๐•อคอญอฅฬ‡๐•–๐•ฅ๐•šใ€‚(Yeti.) - Yep! It came through. That's one of the cases where HTG formatted the data, so I don't have the "base_url" to build from. It seems to be an external link to an image hosting site.

Happy to be of service. :)

Gave the box a little more memory, so hopefully it's a little more stable- although searching through replies by text still seems to struggle a bit. If you want to search replies- it's better to go to the user you're looking for first and search replies through there rather than the whole 5 million.

Anyway- many posts/replies that were closed/removed have been brought back. There is no reason to store offensive or cruel material. The feedback/reporting system is still functional, so if you see any material that is offensive, please report it so I can get it taken care of. (To reiterate, this is material that is cruel and offensive or things that prove a danger to current lives, not just things that you're embarrassed of- if we removed every reply that wasn't perfect, it would take a lifetime of constant work. ๐Ÿ˜…)

Anyone else getting 502 "HelpBot seems to be asleep. We're working on waking him up. Sorry about that!"?

Yep. Thatโ€™s what I was referring to when I said the partition needs more memory. Seems to die once in a while. ๐Ÿ˜…

May need to give the server more memory. Doesn't seem to handle searches on the replies very well. ๐Ÿ˜„

I think 3 of the 4 did. I donโ€™t remember who didnโ€™t though, honestly. I didnโ€™t really write the ones who said they would to memory, but I remember who DID and to those- much thanks!

And it would have been much quicker had I not gotten so involved in another project. ๐Ÿ˜…

Not yet! The archives are nearly done, (Sorry- been SUPER busy) and once those are set up I plan to send out a batch email to those that we actually have. I seem to remember seeing his in there, but if not there are definitely replies where he included his email.

I cant write in shout boxes.

That's super strange. I haven't seen that happen- and there doesn't appear to be anything on your account that would cause that. I'll continue to look into it though! Seems there are occasional oddities with entering text in various places- though this is the first I've heard of it happening in the shouts.

And this only happens in Shout boxes? Seems strange that you can type here - If the keyboard is freezing that sounds like the device you're using, or the text box isn't active/focused.

Just sent you a shout- appears to be working correctly- is there an error message or anything like that?
