Hello everyone. Seems there is an issue with Telstra (possible others) blocking email from our server. If you are trying to sign up I would suggest a different email if possible. If you're trying to reset your password and it fails please use the Contact Us page:

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Forum running slow and giving errors

    Since yesterday I have been getting Database Errors and forum pages have been slow to change.

    Not having problems on any other site

    I use latest version of Firefox on an i5 with windoze 8 full version which has recently been fully reinstalled.

    When I got to those error pages which have been retained in history they load ok this morning.

    Very strange

    I thought it was just my tablet. Every time I tried to view pictures zoomed it crashes out.

          I use Chrome and haven't seen any hard crashes, although I am getting back end server errors at the moment (essentially too many connections to the server at one time), I have tweaked the setting which should hopefully fix the problems.

          edit: I have just done a re-boot of the server (at 16:31 EDST) so let me know if you are seeing errors after now.

          If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

              Chrome is for decorations

              Firefox is for usefulness LOL

                Also the emails advising of a new post have taken up to about 6-8 hours to arrive after the post time.

                  Do you have instant notification or daily turned on??

                    I've noticed similar thing when I have "instant" email notification is usually between 5 minutes and an hour.

                    Perhaps "instant" is only an hourly update?

                    I'm on other forums with instant update and it is pretty much straight away.

                      Ill add that to the list of things to look into.
