Hey jordan, just wanted to let you know that as of 19:20 the forum has been acting a bit slow. i even ended up with this error when trying to post a reply
Request Timeout

Server timeout waiting for the HTTP request from the client.

Additionally, a 408 Request Timeout error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

No such errors from the West Coast, at this time. ;-)

Giving a (revamped) nginx proxy server a try once again.

Edit: That was quick. The nginx proxy has been removed for still exhibiting "buggy" behavior.

Over the last hour, we had been under a prolonged "D-DOS" attack. It has now been mitigated. I apologize for the downtime.

You may want to know that on the main site home page https://www.elvis-collectors.com the link to the message board in the left frame doesnt work. It seems to be because the link is http when it should be https.

Thank you, memphisto for the bug report. At this time, please visit the non-https version of the main page. Once some "mixed content" incompatibilities are fixed, we will be going fully "https" site wide.
