Fixed Server Issue
Oct. 2, 2008 at 7:04am by davjs

We ran out of available hard disk space here at LiveWire's primary server this morning. Fortunately, my telephone automatically alerted me to the issue and I was able to locate and delete 10% of the data on the primary hard drive, all of which was no longer need (i.e. old logs).

Messenger Security Fix
Aug. 9, 2008 at 10:54pm by davjs

It was possible for people to post malicious links to the "Delete All" messages button inside topics. This will now result in an error, saving victims from deleting their messages by mistake.

Thanks to hatt for reporting this one.

Reduced Size of LiveWire Libraries by 8%
July 23, 2008 at 9:36pm by davjs

Everytime a page is loaded LiveWire must access multiple files, one of them is a library of subroutines shared by the various pages of LiveWire.

By reducing the size of this file I have made LiveWire more efficient. It now requires less processing power, memory, and is able to load pages faster.

Fixed the mismatched replies
June 19, 2008 at 10:42am by davjs

The database had become corrupted and many replies were mismatched after being archived. Unfortunately, I had no data to tell me which replies belonged where, so the solution was to delete the messed up replies. Life will go on, but we will mourn the loss of those topics.

More Optimizations
May 12, 2008 at 6:53am by davjs

I love learning new things! I have optimized the home page as well as image baskets.

So far my recent performance optimizations have reduced the primary server's processing average load by 20%. Twenty. Yes, twenty. That's an impressive number folks.

Added Backup Utility
May 11, 2008 at 3:55am by davjs

My makeshift LiveWire office in my house now has an external hard drive and software combination that automatically backs up the working copies of LiveWire's files every hour, day, and week keeping multiple versions. This allows us to retrieve older copies in the event of an error or file corruption.

Bug Fix: Donations
April 18, 2008 at 1:27am by davjs

Donations made in the last 72 hours were not credited to LiveWire accounts. The perl library that we were using to communicate with PayPal was written in 2003 and had fallen out of date.

I have written a new interface to paypal and donations are once again being instantly credited to your livewire accounts.

I am beginning the process of manually crediting member accounts for donations made in the last 72 hours, so don't worry!
