129 Days.

By The Eva Monkey on Saturday, July 1st, 2006 in Eva Monkey.

The Eva Monkey Forums have been down since February 21, for a total of 129 days. I wish it weren’t that long, but that’s just kind of how life went for me and this site. But the forums are back, and I invite you all back to the board. Get posting!

Donations

By The Eva Monkey on Monday, April 17th, 2006 in Eva Monkey.

I wanted to take some time to make an update on the forum transfer. I’ve received thirteen donations for a total of about $60 after processing deductions. This has me well on my way to bringing the forums back on a new host. Thanks go out to Jeff B, Michael H, Benton H, Garrat C, […]

State of the Forums

By The Eva Monkey on Thursday, March 30th, 2006 in Eva Monkey.

Seeing as how I’m asked about the forums on a nearly daily basis, a status update is probably in order. The forums are back, but are not fully functional. In order to get the forums fixed, I would need to shell out $50 to my host to get them to do something I should be […]

Forum back… kind of.

By The Eva Monkey on Saturday, March 18th, 2006 in Eva Monkey.

Well, after about three weeks, I finally got the forums restored. Only there’s a problem with the database, and no one is able to log in, not even me. And to make matters worse, the database is hidden away from phpmyadmin, so I can’t fix it manually through that. I swear, I will have the […]

Forums Back Soon

By The Eva Monkey on Thursday, March 2nd, 2006 in Eva Monkey.

It took some effort, but the forums will DEFINITELY be back within the next 24-48 hours. You do not need to re-register, the forums will be back in more or less their former state. You might need to re-upload your avatar, and the forum skin might not look the same, but all the posts and […]

Precognition

By The Eva Monkey on Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006 in Eva Monkey.

In the past, there was a problem with a limit on SQL queries which killed the board periodically. There was also some problems with certain controls that are only related to administrative control. I had been planning a fresh install of the newest version of phpbb in hopes of alleviating or phasing out these issues […]

The Banning of PhilipCult

By The Eva Monkey on Monday, February 6th, 2006 in Eva Monkey.

I don’t like to ban people from the forums. I generally let people do what they want within reason. I don’t make people use kindergarten acceptable language, and I generally let people be themselves. It has worked fairly well so far, aside from a few isolated instances which have been dealt with It is not […]

A new year, a new design

By The Eva Monkey on Sunday, January 1st, 2006 in Eva Monkey.

It’s not much, but a new design is being put in place. It is not radically different, but I’m doing this design in tableless XHTML and CSS, something that I feel will be very clean and efficient. With this new design, and new year, I decided to do a sort of retrospective of my years […]

Wider is better.

By The Eva Monkey on Friday, April 1st, 2005 in Eva Monkey.

No. This is not some sort of April Fool’s day joke. What you’re looking at is the third iteration of EvaMonkey.com. I had wanted to create a new design to mark the third year of this site, but certain other demands kept me from doing a new design. This time around, I sought to take […]

Evangelion Revelations

By The Eva Monkey on Friday, March 4th, 2005 in Eva Monkey, Personal.

Recently I’ve been working on a blog/writing page for myself to write reviews, editorials, and in general have a journal available to write in without the restrictions and public nature of Live Journal. While building it, I was searching back through the years, through the various web pages I’ve built, looking for writings I would […]
