I’m currently trying to debug a problem I’m having with my blog, so all plugins are disabled for the moment. So, if you were expecting to see all my posts on my archive, my weather, videos in posts, etc., you’ll have to wait.
Just thought I’d let you know what was up.
EDIT: Okay, everything is back to normal. Discovered the problem wasn’t plugin related.
Sorry for it taking so damn long. I’ve been really, really lazy lately when it comes to WordPress development, plugins, and especially my site (as you could probably tell). Playing a ton of World of Warcraft (my character can be found here) doesn’t help either and any free time left over from that is devoted to the odds and ends paid work that I do.
So yeah, everything should be back and working now including the forums. Let me know if not.
EDIT: Apparently the sidebar goes all goofy when the comment form is there. I haven’t a clue why (it used to work) and frankly, nor do I really care right now. This blog is pretty dead anyway, at least for now…
EDIT 8/20: Did a database server switch, so had a day or two of downtime while that happened. All is good now. 
Alright, I’m growing tired of this theme and I’m looking for something a little more Web 2.0 as well as possibly full width. Is anyone out there interested in working with me to create a mockup in Photoshop? I’d want to do the design to XHTML to WordPress theme part, but I can’t design for the life of me, so I’d need someone’s help to create the design.
I’d be willing to chip a little money your way or even better, code anything you need (WordPress plugin, theme, etc.).
Any takers?
lol, whoops! For those of you who may have noticed, my blog has been down for the last 6-12 (more?) hours. I was upgrading to the latest beta build of WordPress and forgot to turn my blog back on when I was done. My apologies.
This blog is now running the alpha version of WordPress 2.1 (i.e. the latest SVN). While upgrading, I decided to start over from scratch with what plugins were activated (I had so much crap in my /plugins/ folder), so let me know if any features of my site aren’t working (for example, if I missed a needed plugin) by replying to this post.
EDIT 12/02 2:34 AM: Whoops, just noticed I accidentally changed my post permalink structure. Put back to normal now.
The Spam Karma 2 database table apparently got corrupted 2.5 days ago and all comments since then were automatically being marked as spam. I recovered most of the ones that weren’t, but a couple comments seem to have disappeared, so sorry to those who had their comments lost.
All should be back to normal now though.
Seems WordPress didn’t like this version of PHP5 with this version of Linux, so my friend/host reverted to PHP4 and wala! Sorry for the downtime.
I’ll be switching hosts over the next couple days. Expect some downtime.
A lot of people think that the “Viper007Bond@GMail.com” to the right is my e-mail address and have been using it to contact me. Well let me set you all straight — I don’t and never have used GMail for my e-mail, so please stop e-mailing me via that. 
I did set it up to forward to my real e-mail address, but it’s still somewhat annoying when use it. Please just use my contact form that’s linked to at the top of this page. It’s there for a reason, folks.
Wow, my blog is getting spammed hardcore right now at a rate of around 3 per minute for the past 24 hours (it was doing a lot, but not quite as many over the past couple days). I can literally watch the count just go right up before my eyes.
I mean, it’s not like I really care. Not one of the spams has gotten through thanks to the anti-comment spam plugin I’m using, Spam Karma 2 (see this previous post of mine), but still, it’s kinda a pain in the ass. I wish the spammers would just figure out that if the first 2000 comments they made never showed up that perhaps the next ones wouldn’t either. Oh well…
EDIT: And yes, I’m already running Bad Behavior, the latest beta even, but it’s not helping much.
