Diasfora went down for me for 15 mins - 00:15 - 00:30

Is usually goes off around this time most evenings.

Yeah, this time I mailed the host after 5 minutes and said it looked like they hadn't restarted Apache (it was showing inactive in my control panel), hopefully that will sort it for a while and I am signing up for a new host before the end of this month.  Perhaps we will have more luck with the new one? I do however, have 3 months left with this host and it might take a while to get a new forum ready before we migrate over.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

Diasfora went down for me 10 mins about 2:55-3:05 (GMT+2)

This was first time for me in long time.

Usually I have log in/out problems,but couple last days I don't have logging problems.
i'm waiting for someone to start an antisocial networking site.

Just today, as I was checking out the fora, I noticed that some of the threads, when I clicked on "New" took me to page one of the thread instead of "the first unread post".  I assume this is due to the tweaking/pruning smokester has been doing (the "New" link is the thread link plus an "anchor" to the message #.  Since smokester has pruned some posts, that number is no longer valid so instead the link defaults to the beginning of the thread).

Not complaining, just doing my due diligence and recording the action here.

Things feel strange without the little server outage we always experienced at this time, as it gave me a reminder that it was about time to go to bed.

I kinda miss it (sniff).

I'm not sure.  Do you copy the code from an image host or something and the BBCode tags are not showing when you paste in the reply box?

I have no advice but Mishca is definately having some issues. The majority of her posts are not formatting the html.

It's not HTML it's the BBC that has a bug.

For some reason the colour tag with the RGB in your code below isn't working on these boards and there are big differences with the BBC here compared to the old version. 

Code: [Select]
[font=arial][size=13px][color=rgb(0, 51, 153)]Michael Keaton[/color][/size][/font]
It is confirmed as a bug but I can't see them fixing it any time soon.  For now I would use the colour presents we have here for posting and I'll try and install a mod that gives you the complete spectrum of BBC colours.

I actually think the RGB addition isn't recognised as the board isn't equipped to.  It does register the Hex code and I have found a mod that will allow both formatting of text and/or its background to any of the BBC colours, but it is another manual installation so I'll do it tomorrow in when its quiet.
