Tags are all automatically changed to lowercase but I've done what I can.

Would there be any way to search by post type? I'm trying to find an old reference and when I search for the phrase it just links me to a few megathreads with several hundred fucking pages that I would have to comb through manually.

On the search pages, select 'view results as: posts' instead of threads.

Still hope to see avatars one day :)

So, uh....
any details on what that 404 outage was earlier today?
Al_B on 16/11/2018 at 09:11
Nothing sinister. There are currently two web services on the server- one for TTLG and one for our sub-sites. The wrong one started responding to forum requests giving the 404 error. I'll be having stern words with it later to ensure it doesn't happen again.

No-one suggested there was anything sinister, so why the need to suggest otherwise unless there
was something sinister? Rumbled!

Hi,
I have not been very active lately and catching up on all the stuff I missed during the last 3 months.
I noticed that all threads older than 10 days are marked as 'read' - whether I actually ever saw them or not.
The (
https://www.ttlg.com/forums/faq.php) FAQ - How can I see the latest posts? confirms this behavour, but also states it is a setting to be made globally by them admins.
Is there any reason to keep that limit so low?

There is a built-in time limit to this, however, that will automatically mark all threads as 'read' after a set number of day, whether you really have read them or not. The default setting is 10 days, but the administrator could make this higher or lower.

It's an interesting question. The database marking used is a bit forum intensive but not too bad. I've increased the limit to 30 days to reflect the fact that others may not be quite as frequent visitors as they may have been at one point - this will likely mean that some threads between 10 and 30 days may show up as unread if they were automatically marked as unread. Of course, the real solution is to simply visit more often :)

Lol I came in and suddenly there's ALL these unread posts except they're all old and I'm like what the heck is going on... Time to hit "Mark Forums Read" I guess.
