After 10+ years, the Hard Drop forums are now retired. It will remain here as an archive. For more active discussions visit our Discord. Thanks for the memories - Blink (10/17/2019)
* Off-site backups are now implemented. * Increased to daily backups
What does this mean? All backups are stored in a backup server located at a different location than our primary website. This is in case of apocalyptic events, the data will be readily available for restoring. I also increased the backup frequency to daily since the community is pretty active and 1 week lost of data would not be fun.
* Set a cronjob to automatically check for broken tables every hour.
One of the tables in the database crashed which took down the whole website, repaired it and everything is working now. Also added a cronjob to prevent this from happening again.

Can you make the tweet box longer? or add in a scrollbar?
Also I was thinking we should add in a function where users can thumbs up replies in threads. So maybe the reply with the most thumbs up will show up right after the 1st post. (idea from yahoo answers lol)
