Technical Issues - TPU Main Site & Forum (2021)

[AAF Optimus]

I've been on and off the site for the last 4 hours. No issues

Here, too.
No problem.

 

[W1zzard]

Not aware of any issues

 

[dorsetknob]

I am the only one having these often today?

no problem here in UK
looks to me like its generated by your ISP and not the usual 404 error

 

[Mussels]

Change your DNS server

i use adguards, for laziness

 

[W1zzard]

cloudflare dns ftw

 

[windwhirl]

Had a 502 Bad Gateway error a few minutes back when trying to reach the forums (don't know if it also affected main page)

Additionally, it seems the site has a bit of a problem trying to load profile pics

 

[LFaWolf]

Funny you got my profile pic there. I was just about to post too. I got the same 502 error as well.

While I'm not seeing that, I am seeing the following:

In case no one is seeing the problem, there is no input field in the Reply area.

And when likes are clicked..

This again...

 

[W1zzard]

Does it work now?

 

[lexluthermiester]

Yup, fine now. Still working on the server switch-over?

 

[W1zzard]

No idea what happened, looks like Cloudflare's cache somehow got corrupted, I reset the cache and things are looking fine now

Still working on the server switch-over?

The tpu.org servers are completely separate from tpu.com. Haven’t had time to do anything with tpu.org

Ah ok, didn't know that.

I was getting a 502 last night before i went to bed

 

[Selaya]

Okay so.

This actually had been a thing for a long time now, but I never really bothered enough to report it. Until now I guess.
The well problem: CPU/GPU databases are only partially / almost functional with javascript disabled.

Like, when I hit search it spews out this URL:

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/?mfgr=AMD&released=&directx=&mobile=&workstation=&igp=&generation=&architecture=GCN+3.0&gpu=&ushaders=&tmus=&rops=&memtype=&memsize=&buswidth=&interface=&slots=&powerplugs=&tdp=&performance=&sort=name&q=

which in turn results into this neat little glitchHowever if you manually trim down the fat, like this

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/?mfgr=AMD&&architecture=GCN+3.0

it'll work just fine.

Seems like a bug / glitch / oversight in the code somewhere.

Bump.
Still happening.

There was a suggestions thread which I couldn't find any more, so I paste this here;
We need an ignore button that shuts replies from specific people. Some people have nothing better to do with their lives and have biased opinions. If there were reply blocks, we would be less burden on moderators when encountering people with interpersonal issues.

You can tap on the name of the User and click on the ignore button.

 

[lexluthermiester]

The problem mtcn77 is having is not a technical issue with TPU, it's a personal one with another user. There is nothing W1zzard can do for that situation.

 

[Deleted member 24505]

everyone is entitled to their opinion, if you don't agree with it, tough, move on.

 

[mtcn77]

That is my plan, but it gets devolved into a back and forth ad hominem.
We could prevent such back and forth flood if we find it unnecessary to continue without being harrassed.

You aren't who I was speaking to, don't chime in.

They won't accept fault and argue for it. That is the prevalent issue. I'm advocating a way to speak up without hearing back noise. Of course, everyone's opinion is their own, but facts are facts.

You can also Report it to Moderators so Mod can issue warning and put a stop to it. The tools are out there.

You know, unnecessary usage is also unwarranted. Maybe, it could be useful is all I'm bringing to discussion.

PS: it is my opinion, not necessary.

This is a public forum. I will comment and participate as I see fit.

Your continued arguments are NOT the topic of discussion for this thread. This thread is about technical problems with/about TPU. It is NOT about arguing your personal pride and ego.

 

[95Viper]

Quit your petty arguments... that is not what this thread is for.
Take it to PMs, please.

I recommend the ignore button, it has done wonders for me.

Right there with you. But what I think mtcn77 is asking for is something that I asked for some time ago in that when we users add someone to our ignore list we no long see anything associated with them including comments, likes or replies, even the ones you can click on to show, and likewise those ignored users can not see or interact with us. It can lead to some confusion, but such would be better than the continued unpleasantness that currently happens.

IIRC, W1zzard chimed in and stated it was a Xenforo software issue/limitation(W1zzard forgive me if I'm misquoting you) and that the requested functionality was either very difficult to employ or does not exist. Can't find that discussion so an exact quote eludes me...
