Well if its just the subscribes you have for threads here on Windlyn, the staff took them down to see if it helps the site. But if it was actual websites you had the boo!

oh, so it wasn't my mother, I'm calm now. tho I don't know if it will really help the site. but...calm now. ^^

Sorry our taking down subscriptions caused so much trouble. You guys post so much your email services were tarpitting (rate limiting incoming email - a method, albeit a feeble one, to reduce spam) anything Windlyn sent them. Now please understand posting is a good thing, but the way subscriptions work here by default was sending out thousands of emails. By the time we figured out what was happening there was a backlog of over 8000 emails in the outgoing queue! So we disabled subscriptions and subsequently PM email notifications (you guys send out hundreds of PM's! Again more good things in our eyes--keep it up) to clear out the queue while we figured out solutions.

The good news is we'll be turning on subscriptions again today. Diana modified Windlyn's code so subscriptions will work without sending email notifications. We'll be keeping PM email notifications disabled too (PM's still work, but they don't send out emails). Diana will make a formal announcement later to discuss if it is worth developing a less intrusive email notification system (if anyone cares vs. time and effort). In the meantime we figure these steps will keep Windlyn running smoothly so Diana can get back to drawing cute stuff for us!

Thanks for everyones patience and understanding while we go through some growing pains!

thank you!

[Lina]

I'll look forward to the announcement.

[npixelz]

so will I.
on a different note, does anyone have a Gaia account?

[Lina]

I used to be on Gaia like 10 years ago, but I quit when it started being like 70% trolls. >.<
I kinda like the smaller forums better. People are usually nicer.

yeah, I guess. I used to be on it, but then I wasn't on it for awhile and forgot my password.

[Lina]

npixelz: I might be able to remember my password on there. But I don't have anything on my account anymore. I sold it all and got art. XD

[Blue Jay]

Thanks Galled for clearing up the confusion with the Subscriptions! ^^

Hey everyone how's it going?

I had three Gaia accounts but stopped going on it after the MMO came out.

Lina after a 6 month hiatus they lock your account.

[npixelz]

really? I'm not sure how long I've been away.

[Lina]

Wind is better than Gaia. >:3

[npixelz]

Wind is better than Gaia. >:3

yes, but some of my old Crysandrea friends are on gaia, and I want them to come to Windlyn and Sapherna, because I miss them. ^^

[Lina]

I do miss my old Gaia friends. :/

[npixelz]

I do miss my old Gaia friends. :/
