I don't think is was intentional again, however 3 times something similar has happened, hinting something 'sinister'?

I don't think it's intentional either.  After all, wouldn't Adama say something about the site changing like this?

This is the first I've heard about it.  But they've never told me any OTHER time they've redone the BEA site access.  I imagine it's unintentional.  Sigh.

Sounds like they really need to have content flags embedded into the site code and flag the Addventure free to possibly keep this from happening a 5th time (I expect implementing such to break again).

Hi everyone!

Sorry, sorry and sorry! We had such a huge work migrating BEArchive that we missed to check that.

Addventure will be free as it always was. We are asking the developers to fix this soon.

 I'll appreciate if you post your "general complaints" and bug reports on this thread: http://forum.bearchive.com/index.php?topic=9996577.0 so we can track them better and fix them faster.

Mariano

Well, I didn't start this thread exclusively for bug reporting, just as informational entertainment while waiting for the error correction. To poke fun at the hiccups, in a hopefully unhurtful way.

Why is it being called the old addventure.

Did something happen?

Also, the URL change pretty much breaks any old links.

It means the old server.  The rest of the BEA moved to a new server.

Hopefully they'll do a redirect so that old links will still work.  They haven't done it yet though.

Hi again!

We are fixing the access since it isn't working in all cases. The redirect after login still fails.

We will be moving addventure to the new server but we can't tell you when. We'll keep you posted.

It looks like the site is back, but now I'm experiencing a problem.  I've tried to post a comment, but the site keeps giving me an "Internal Server Error" screen instead.  The same thing is happening when I try to add tags to older episodes.  I'm assuming that this will happen if I try to add new episodes, so I'm a bit reluctant to do so if it won't even allow me to post anything.

I'm just writing episodes in word (as I normally do anyway) saving them and waiting for all these transitional hiccups to get sorted before posting anything.  I hope that the log in won't always be required because it is rather annoying hitting a bookmark and getting presented with a log in screen.

I don't seem to be experiencing that.  I just go to the site and the site shows up.  There's no log-in or anything.  But it sounds like other people have to log in to see the site, oddly.

Hi! Can you please send me an email with the details of what you tried to do, the pages you saw and the error messages shown so we can test and fix it?

Turns out that BotComics is using this opportunity to sabotage the BEAddventure. Please join in this thread to try and talk some sense into him.
