Thanks for letting me know. I'll update that soon as I get the new link from Myth (I got him on Skype right at this moment, so should be soon). **EDIT** Statbook link has been changed to the proper statbook. Please note this change is only for the currently supported skin FCRec3 and it's color variants.
As for asshats in here who seem to think I don't do anything.
All the modifications have been updated and most of the known bugs have been resolved (only took 8 hours for the bloody database to back up for some god awful reason). The two biggest ones were the error text people were receiving on user profiles and vBookie page. This was due to the recent update in PHP on the server and some the code is no longer supported by the latest version. There was also an issue with the calendar not showing anything beyond 2013.
Here's why:

As usual, if you guys notice something is wrong with the site let me know and I will fix soon as I can.
Thanks for your patience,

#BlameMetkil for the database taking 8 hours to backup. :P
Thanks, Metty!

No probs. It's what I do.
But yea, the database backup was weird. Usually when I do them every week it only takes like an hour at the most. Since our website is on a shared server, only thing I can imagine is that today the server was bogged down and the backup was thrown into the lowest priority.
Fun fact, we have over 40GB of database backups between my computer and the file server itself. Another fun fact, the website actively uses a 650MB(!) database. I think it's time to clean it out soon (aka delete REALLY old posts).

So can we start by just deleting Fuzzy and Silko? :)
Re: Website Maintenace 2/15/14
I bet it would have only taken Myth 5 minutes. :P

Myth doesn't even know how to backup the database. ._.
And Max, don't tempt me.

It is funny how mad Metkil gets when in reality the winners of the prizes myself included should be the ones pissed off...

Also, delete all the spambot accounts and their posts/blogs, that'll free up some space, the accounts are like 50% spambots lol.

Just do a search for banned members and nuke 'em, Metty.

Actually, the spambots and their spam posts are regularly cleaned up. Granted, regular is like every 6 months, but hey I do it! The reason the database is so large is that it's kept ALL the forum stuff (posts, topics, members, etc.) since this forum was originally opened in 2010 (holy shit, I've running this for almost 4 years). It kind of builds up. :P
