It'll take longer than 2 days certainly. I believe it should be fixed within 1-2 weeks.

I understand. Just be patient as we work to fix these issues

There is a possibility that they've fixed the issue until they get a chance to take the forum offline and change the DB Type to a "less memory intensive" one. I believe they will schedule a downtime sometime soon so be on the lookout, not confirmed yet.

Admins are aware and have stated that they will work on it.

I don't really want attention like this lol, but I appreciate everyones enthusiasm.

Blogs isn't a place for general discussion, that is what edge of the forum is for. Thanks

I don't believe it is a Nintendo issue or something Nintendo has caused. Typically when you login and you get redirected to your profile page you should have your sidebar displayed. If not, you will get redirected to your profile page and it will appear as if you aren't logged in but in reality "you are". It just takes time for the site to realize that you have already logged in. You get redirected to your profile but still have access to the options that allow you to edit your profile settings but not to other features.

I tested this issue and it only seems to occur when you login successfully and you click the back button multiple times to the point where you went back to a page that you were on before you were logged in to your account. Just go back to the BrowseDNS Homepage and click the big blue login button, it should work.

Edit: The 503 Errors is basically you getting rate limited. It occurs typically when the site starts to bug due to database issues, slowness of the site, your device sending multiple requests to the server (common for botnets to do), etc. I'm sure the @administrators will take a look into that when they get a chance.

This is strange

@Administrators

We're almost there! Keep on sending in responses!!!

You need 25 rep for a bio, background, and signature. Everything else is open for everybody.

Welcome

@Faust said in Discussion About The Post Queue.:

@Raven mate its sensitfve for areason SOMEN DIED

I'm glad you understand that. That is why it wasn't approved.

I don't believe we manually took reactions away, it is likely broken or bugged out.

@Faust the reason that was rejected was likely because it references to suicide or is a sensitive topic. Not all audiences can handle that kind of information.

In addition to this, on behalf of BrowseDNS, may she rest in piece and if you need our support, it is there. Sorry mate.

Good Afternoon,

Password Reset Requests

I will be placing some new policies in place regarding password resets in the event that you forget your password and are unable to login.

Requirements FOR Password Reset Form:

• Must have the Email connected to the account requested

If you meet the above qualifications, message one of the @Global-Moderators on a new account or email us at contact@browsedns.net using the email connected to your account and within 48 hours you will be sent a password reset form via email and you will have the opportunity to change it. Please note that we will only send you this email twice and if you do it again, unfortunately, you will have to make a new account.

Account Security Code Method:

If you do not have an email, message a Global Moderator whenever you get a chance, that moderator will send you a 16 digit security code that you are expected to keep up with. If you misplace it or leak this security code it is completely your fault. After a security code is used, you will be given a new one. We will only reset your password twice. If you do it again, unfortunately, you will have to make a new account.

If you manage to get locked out of your account w/ your security code:

• Message a Global Moderator saying you used the security code method on using a new account. Ideally have an alt account prepared and let us know that it is your alt.
• Send them the 16 digit security code. Double check for typos!
• Once the authenticity of the security code is confirmed that Global Mod will have an administrator reach out to you within 48 hours. DO NOT MESSAGE AN ADMINISTRATOR, WE WILL MESSAGE YOU.

Thanks,

I copied it directly from the BrowseDNS Info thread that has been up for multiple years and there isn't a flag for England so we used the Great Britain one.

@derpygrooves said in I can't access the secret browser on switch anymore:

@bugsinbread both didn't work for sum reason

Both seem to be operational at the moment. I suggest that you restart your device, check for updates, or possibly try using another one of our DNS servers (Preferably EU). If it still does not work for you obviously we can have one of the admins help you out.

US East: 45.55.142.122 (formerly Switchbru DNS)
US West: 45.55.112.11
England: 46.101.65.164

Thanks,
Raven

Yeah @Idyll has it pretty much covered however, It is 25 Rep not 10. In the future I may consider just allowing profile pictures and bios.

This is a very nice and informational post by @pwsincd!
