Hey!

Feb 13, 2005 roguelazer link
You broke my guild member auto-updater! The guildinfo pages can no longer be downloaded... what's up with that? This is what I get when I use wget or PHP's file_get_contents method:

The Vendetta Online website has encountered a problem. A bug report has been mailed to the developers, who apologize for your inconvenience.
Please use the "back" button on your browser.

Interestingly enough, I get the same error if I try to use lynx or links... And because your damned menu is generated entirely with JavaScript, I can't actually navigate your site with links/lynx. Haven't you guys heard of a sitemap?

I'll provide the sourcode to my update_db.php script if you need it to figure out what's wrong, but good luck understanding it.

This might get more attention if you:

A) Reposted with an appropriate title, since "Hey" is rather vague.

B) Were a bit more cordial in your tone.

Fixed. It's not kidding about the bug report thing.

(Hint Hint, the 400,000 times you tried it, he got an email)

Hahaha that's one way to get developer support. Turn their own bug reporting mechanism into an unfilterable doom-spam device.

Yay. Fixed.

Andy I only tried it two times. Then I tried to download a local copy with wget a couple of times... Then I tried links...

Well, it is lying about the email thing. Heh, it's just entries in a database.
