You should always do stuff like that in a proper text editor and copy + paste it in.

if it's all the sites going down then it must be the server again isn't it?

There is always a demand for more competitions and events on the forum and the beauty contest was never introduced to increase posting, it's simply a bit of fun for the members :rolleyes:

The posting competition was launched to help stimulate posting and introduce newer members to posting around the forum, and I agree that this wouldn't be needed if we didn't have as much downtime as we do. Don't forget though there are other factors too as to why we aren't getting as many posts as we should, it isn't just the downtime.

So really Mathew, trying to link the beauty contest and the posting competition together is rather silly as they were both introduced for completely different reasons.

Oli has asked me to post this on his behalf:

The downtime that just occured was Jin tweaking the server, he says this should improve it until he can fix it properly one night this week.

Jin isn't always at home Stephen and is very busy. He's trying to sort things yet you're still complaining?

I've been informed that Jin is going to be looking into this tonight, please bear with us.

Not complaining, just think it's abit weird that he doesn't tell you before he does it

Most people have the common sense to make a thread in the Development forum saying "Fixing ****, stuff will go down", if he can tweak the server then he can certainly make a quick post.

As Jin doesn't often have the time to come onto the forum he will get me or David to relay this information, funnily enough revising for my exams comes before alerting you that HabboxForum will be going down for 5 minutes, and it's not something David's gonna get out of bed for.
