08.25.25 | theres no fix this site is terminal |
glorybox94
08.25.25 | so does anyone actually run the site? I'm assuming by terminal that means it won't be receiving any updates |
budgie
08.25.25 | account creation has been broken for like 2 or 3 years now alongside broken account settings editing so yeah prob wont be seeing any updates |

08.25.25 | I haven't been able to do so for quite some time, and I ran into another problem as well: I tried adding an album to the database, and while it did add it, it kept telling me the album art I uploaded was the wrong filetype (even though I'm 100% it's a .jpg), so now the album is just sitting there without artwork. Band is Type: Armor Unit if anyone else wants to try (fantastic Discordance Axis-esque grind). |

08.25.25 | The album art thing has been an issue for years, since i’ve been using the site. Every once in a while you’ll get an error saying “use jpg or jpeg only” even if you use a jpeg. Then the album cover is stuck white forever until a mod swoops in. Back then they would, now it’s a lot less likely. |
brickhed
08.25.25 | yeah its a luck of the draw if the album art bug kicks in or not. sometimes it works and sometimes not. i just hope it does |

brickhed
08.25.25 | yeah for the future if there's some type of bug, if its not website breaking assume it will not be fixed |

08.26.25 | The album art issue can pop up if you use a jpg that is 'too big'. I put it in quotes because no one seems to know what that file size is. A lot of time the white square can be fixed by shrinking the file size AND changing the file name. If you use the same file name it seems like the site will just ignore the upload. If none of that works, we essentially just make a new album page and delete the old one (or merge them if there is anything worth saving). |
ToSmokMuzyki
08.26.25 | yea sometimes even a proper sized jpg still doesnt work so i resave it again as a jpg and its fine (unless it gets permanent white square status beforehand)
whether its bc the site isnt reading it as a jpg or its a problem with the file itself idk but ive never had a problem after resaving a supposed jpg |

08.27.25 | This is post 2020 Sputnik. It’s all breaking down and no one will ever fix it |
Willie
08.27.25 | The only reason things are still running at all is because the light switch to turn it all off is broken too ;) |

08.27.25 | "when you post a deftones ranked list you're immediately stripped of your user privileges"
finally means that maybe the deftones worship should be dialed down for once |
