• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

What just happened?

I got knocked out of chat just over an hour ago, and couldn't access several site functions. I'm at a different computer now (the third since this started), and at least I was able to get a couple of things open.
I still have this at the top of the page, though:
Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to localhost:10010 in /home/fauna/public_html/chat/api.php on line 6
Connection refused (111)

The other message I was getting repeatedly was
Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File:/home/fauna/public_html/forums/includes/class_core.php
Line: 3245
(I'm not sure if it was the same one every time, that was the one I happened to write down)
 
glad im not the only one this happened to last night.

i had that exact same error last night
 
The first error is caused when the page fails to connect using the fsockopen() command. The error is pretty common with php scripts and is usually because a class or module fails. The other error is exactly what it says and is because something was causing it to not be able to save cookies.

These error are on the server side and nothing can not be done about it until the site builder gets to it. So it is nothin you guys are doing.

It can also happen if a server goes down or restarts. I used to get these on a site I built simply because the site was hosted on a crappy server. After I made the host company switch the box it no longer happened.
