If you access nationstates.net through HTTP and without www.
you get an advert for Nintendo DS version of the game
I assume this used to be an old April fools joke of some sort or something similar?

Is this a side effect of the new servers? Because now every time I write nationstates.net in my address bar to get to the side it redirects me to the weird advert instead of the site itself.

I'm using firefox if that gives any leads

Fixed here: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic ... #p29762148

Try Ctrl+F5 on 'nationstates.net'. It does a complete reload of the page. That should solve it.

Yep! Just noticed all the page images went blank, reloaded and it redirected me back to the normal page.

Thanks ^_^

"Show your posts" isn't working - I got "Sorry but you cannot use search at this time. Please try again in a few minutes." as the result.

Known issue. Given that we have new hardware, I'd guess that some indexing (or reindexing?) is happening. Traditionally, this happens on Thursdays, but it seems reasonable that this may need to happen again with new hardware.

That's great. Actually, it's not great, but thanks anyway.

It appears that some of my posts (about 10 or so) from last night, and I believe that were all posted in this thread, don't show up if I link to "view Forum posts" from my game-side nation page. The weird thing is, they get counted for my total posts count.

Edit: The number is 10 missing

Ah. I didn't read the part about the indexing so much

by **[violet]** » Wed Aug 31, 2016 6:45 pm

I don't think it's indexing; search goes offline when server load rises about a certain point, which it did a couple of times in the past 12 hours. I'll have to figure out why.

"Server shutdown 1 year 151 days ago"

Hueh??? It fixed itself, but...wut?

Server shut down in 10 minutes? What's going on?

Why has this thread been gravedug?

I don't understand why this one is linked to

Hm. One of my more troublesome RP characters must have broken into the server room again.

by **Sapnu puas** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 7:05 pm

Does this mean we will have NationStates 2.0 (not NS2)?
:eek:

by **Rykil** » Sun Jan 28, 2018 7:06 pm

It just said that server downtime occurred one year and fifty six days ago.

What is happening I don't get what's happening what do you mean the servers are shutting down

Now a link to a topic for today's shutdown is in the sidebar, but when you click it it says "The requested topic does not exist."

Nationstates is about to achieve self-awareness and exterminate us all in nuclear fire. It's simply good etiquette to warn users beforehand.

Is it N-Day 3?
