Undefined discussion subject -bug

YashaXYashaX Member EpicPosts: 3,100
Nearly every post from the system coming from the "News & Features" category has the title "undefined discussion subject" for me. I looked on two different browsers, logged in and out and still see the same thing. There was a post about this in "site suggestions" last week, but no one seems to have noticed it so I am posting here since this is more visible. The problem has gotten so bad that over half of the "recent discussions" are "undefined discussion subject."

This is really, really bad for the site, I hope someone can take the time to fix it.

    It has happened before but never for this long without a fix. It makes it look as if no one is minding the forum maintenance at all and we're just one more dead hamster away from the forum apocalypse.

    Don't know if there has been some staff turnover but it's pretty obvious no one capable of fixing the script has been around here for the past couple of weeks.

    @MikeB @Meddle ; are you guys still here?

    The new site admins are aware of the issue, but it's taking a bit longer than normal as the old admin (aka Meddle) no longer owns the website. We're working on it, though!

    I didn't know the site was sold. I would have bid for it had I known....or was this when Bill and Suzie left you mean?
    It was after they left. I remember the announcement. Sold to a EU based conglomerate as I recall.

    Found an external link:

    The part that I didn't know was that the site admin was the owner. I had always thought those were two different people.

    I'm not, the revenue it can generate in ads and sponsored content is high enough to make that back in a few years
    (though I would have not added sponsored content and used....other forms of monetization ) 
    Selling NFT's for user avatars?   :p

    If the site started having NFT's for posting a ton of new peeps would turn up just because you can get an NFT, crazy but they would.

    I think forum Apocalypse fears are just good social media drama but still a few of us have an alternate means of contact though we hardly use it, if the forums went down I am sure we would. Also maybe an idea to have a reddit ID up and running as MMORPG.com is there too.

    Edit: Not sure r/mmorpg is site run having had another look at it.

    Its a nuisance but when I think of the palaver I have seen on other forums when they were working as intended it not a biggie.

    Somehow missed that. The price was reasonable too. Shame, I would have loved to have had the site. 

    The longer this issue goes on maybe the better chance you could reach out and get it  o:)

    Good day MMORPG friends,

    While we await a permanent fix for the undefined discussion subject bug, I'll work on getting the titles fixed. Feel free to reach out to me if I happen to miss a thread or two.

    Happy posting!

    Well, depending on how ambitious you feel, just click on the News and Features Discussion category and you'll have about 2 and a half pages of undefined discussions you can change manually. Basically everything posted under that category since May 8th or 9th that you haven't corrected yet.
