Not sure if anyone else has noticed but the Metropol Upload Service has a couple of PHPBB PHP errors.

Don't worry, it's been joined by an SQL error on the main board:

SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Access denied for user 'hymagumba'@'dekalb.dreamhost.com' (using password: YES) [1045]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

Yes that has been reported.

People will no doubt be THRILLED to know Metropol is - as of yesterday - no longer hosted at a data centre beside LAX airport but is now over on the East Coast in Virginia in a shiny new data centre.

That is apparently broken.

I was worried you'd be posting something like

This is very hard for me to write, but here's the situation:

Today I made a terrible, terrible blunder which caused the forum to go offline. In fact, the forum was deleted from the server. I've spent the last 6 hours trying to fix the faults. Unfortunately, despite all our best efforts, all attempts to get a back-up of the site online have failed. Which means, sadly...

We have to start again.

I was seeing it on the main upload page - http://www.metropol247.co.uk/uploadservice/ but it's gone now.

It has been brought to my attention that a post has been made on Metropol[24/7] and my name has been attached to it. I did not make this post, in fact I have never posted to Metropol[24/7]. I do have an account as I use the upload service and also used the chatroom which has since closed.

The post in question is in this thread.
http://www.metropol247.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=6742

I can login and edit the post but I have decided not to. Even though I did not make the post, it doesn't contain anything offensive or controversial so I'll leave it there for the benefit of future historians.

For the record, I am half Scottish on the paternal side.

no you got wells to make it for you, so we thought it was best to be clear who's opinion it was.

Does that mean I shouldn't let David tell me to start new threads about diets and abandoned retail outlets as well?

Maybe David could start threads himself instead of being a cretin? Just a thought. xx

With an invitation like that, how can I refuse?

I don't post on Metropol[24/7] because I think some of the moderators abuse their position. This is not the first example I've seen of a post being edited by a moderator to change what someone is saying. It's not a community I want to be part of, nor is it a community that needs my input.

As for the post in question, [Jon] Wells did not post it on my behalf, I have no idea why he claimed to be doing so. Wells actually said he thought that the thread should have had more replies. I suggested that he should do something about it by posting himself, he claimed that he did not know what to write so I suggested the text that he posted which was then subsequently edited to appear to come from me.

If I had wanted to post myself, I would have done.
