Your VIP restored, as well as that of other users'. Epoch has had trouble connecting to UMD to enter your renewal information, but it's going through now

If anybody has any problems with VIP or anything else, please contact me directly via inbox or the Contact Us link at the bottom of the site and I'll be able to get to you a bit more quickly


Right now, the top 40 Most Loved people get automatic VIP. Maybe I'll go ahead and raise that to 50. You're at 52 right now

There may be a little bit of disconnect in the system FWIW. I could swear it was still there while in the 40s but it's a very minor bug if it's a thing.

VIP is also given out daily Wam Party Animal, Pic of the Day winner, and a few other accolades....

Our sales aren't showing up as notifications and the home page is only showing 2 downloads on the homepage for what's new.

What's New sorted (time zone issues) and looking into your notifications. Thanks!

Is anyone else getting double notifications for almost everything?

I just checked and you are definitely getting them now. Please contact me if you feel something is off.

I'm still working on some slowness in the Notifications pages. Thanks for bearing with me....

I hope everybody's weekend got off to the right start

I have noticed that the buffering issue with videos is not as bad as it once was. I have checked several videos including the one I originally tested. The new videos play as well as the old videos. Whatever changes were made seem to have fixed the issue.

Most things seem fine to me, but some pages are lagging like Rita MacNeil in the 110m hurdles today.

Sorry but new set of issues. Someone else's scene is showing up when we get a purchase. It's not selling them the wrong one I don't think- just the thumbnail on our notifications is another scene. And also when you make a picture bigger- there's no way to X out of it and even clicking the screen behind it doesn't get rid of it.

Thanks for all you do!

I'm getting notification weirdness when someone likes one of my scenes, see attached example (with the other user's name blurred out). First off, that's not a shot from Ophelia II (which features Maude in a wedding dress in the Dales) and second, if you click the "View Scene" button it actually takes you to a bundle of male mud scenes which also don't seem to feature the person in the notification pic.

The second pic is where the "View Scene" button takes me.

This should be fixed now... introducing some speed improvements in Notifications pages and messed something up.

Is something going on with downloads right now? Any time I attempt to download a purchase, I get a "Be right back" screen.

Looks like it is working again now.

We upgraded our bandwidth and ended up with a whole new IP for that server, so I had to get that change settled in... all back to normal

Also, emails should be delivered more consistently now

Something is off with this thread. Before any posts is a bunch of picture code.
https://umd.net/forums/new-video-poll

I am not sure why all the code is not showing up. When I edit my post it is there.

Looks like overspill from our caching. It's not there now and would have only been there for one page load, but I'm on it

Is there a reason there are no time stamps to comments posted to blogs? This is not a big deal, but some of us have been disappointed by not being able to tell when the comment was posted. Pretty much everything else posted here has an accurate time stamp, so there must be a good reason it's not include in blog comments.

Hmmm I'll have to add some timestamps to that badboy....

OMG, we had no idea you could accomplish this retroactively. Thank you!!

These past few days I've mostly been working on speed improvements, email deliveries, and minor bug fixes. I'll continue to work though Vegas, so everyone please continue contacting me fo anything you think needs attention, and I'll get on it. Thanks everyone for your help and patience so far!!

For some reason things seem to be slower than usual on here. I've been having trouble viewing my notifications for the past week.

the site has been real slow since the upgrades.

I've also noted a significant increase in lag times and slowness issues over the past several weeks.
Figured it was do to these upgrades, but glad to know it hasn't just been me.

I've found it fluctuates, and varies by what you're doing. Mostly, the forums (and the admin page) go like greased lightning, but the Notifications page can be painfully slow to load.

There are some things that are more intense for this server, for example posting a new video, that does cause a bottleneck for a little while on the entire site. I'm working on making those more efficient and offloading them to separate processes. Things will get faster over time, but I do apologize for the intermittent slowness now.

Any news when this site is getting completely upgraded? I'm not getting some alerts when certain people I follow upload new material. And I don't think they're getting alerts from me either.

I'm trying to add a new scene add to the download store today, and it won't appear in my cart before I pay. I tried it out from another store and the same thing happened. It won't let me add any new scenes add today(5/7/23). Past added scenes seem to be ok. I'll try again after work today to see if this still happens to me. I don't know if anyone is having this issue as well.

Our sever move is complete, but some things still need adjustment. I do see the issue with some notifications getting blackholed and I should have that fixed in a few days.

The cart double-checks a number of things about the scene before allowing it to be added to your cart, such as approval status, release date etc. I believe I know why this is happening so I'm refreshing a few things now to hopefully solve this issue but please contact me if this is still happening for you.
