    Sure, it doesn't affect the QDB, but it's still bad.
    There was a major hack a while back when all of AGN went down for a while and that's the page you would see when you tried to enter the forums. I wonder if that hack resulted in the problems with the QDB. That may explain why it suddenly was having problems and why it may not be an easy fix if they messed with it.

    I doubt it.

    The issue didn't arise until the upgrade in '05 late December. It was right after AGN came back on after the upgrade that DB became corrupt. Not to the point to where it is now, but corrupt.

    Then Eckels was informed that the QDB was fucked up and he attempted to fix it. Shortly after his main page post about the DB being in repair, it went down to the point that you see now.

    And that is where it stands.

    I honestly believe that it was the upgrade that started the mess. Not the hack. The hack came about 6 months afterward.
    The ZC.com Database is alive!!

    Actually, the hack came in January '06, less than three weeks after the last successful submission on New Year's Eve the previous year. I remember quite well, because it was on my birthday.

    I'm getting there. I was going to get the Zelda Classic theme working with all of it so it would mesh with the site but I think I'll worry about getting it up and functional and then worry about theme integration.

    I do apologize for the delays, but it is on it's way.

    I swear, every time you post reassuring news like this, I always get really happy. :) I do agree, functionality, then the appearance.

    I don't even really remember when AGN was down in great detail, other than the place came to a hault after the conflict was resolved.
    My quests:
    End of Time - First quest, uses classic graphics (Help/discussion thread)
    Link to the Heavens - Second quest, uses Pure tileset (YouTube LP | Help/discussion thread)
    End of Time DX - Remake of my first quest (YouTube LP | Help/discussion thread)

    wouldn't you NEED to do the technical stuff first before implementing a theme anyways?

    because since the database is down people just stopped making them available here or do it just in a thread on the forum ,or on purezc or just on their own webside get all bugs out when the players mention them ...........and hopefully put them in the database when that one starts working again

    Re: Anyone notice the QDB lately?

    Well... I have a feeling that in some point in the time continuum that the ZC.com QDB will be hustlin' and bustlin' again. But that point may be a very long time from now. I would love to tinker with the site for a few days to iron out all of the errors.
