Title: 123RF- Wacked
Post by: tab62 on February 02, 2013, 12:49

Caution MSG Folks as of 02-02-2013 10am Pacific Standard Time USA  Something is really wrong with the site when you upload images- it isn't applying the right wording with the right photo- total mess thus beware...

I think they must be doing some sort of work on the site as I can't get in to see my earnings.

I can log in and see the page with all the links to downloads, earnings, etc. but I get a message "This page is temporarily unavailable. Sorry for any inconvenience caused." if I click on Downloads

Yes that's exactly what I'm getting.

Do not upload with FTP either, as the images just disappears after you have pulled them into the site as well.

Maybe they discovered the so called caching technique and the IT guys are making some changes...
It's unbelievable they are reading from DB and calculating a contributor's earnings upon every page request... And the best solution until now was... limiting requests by captcha...

Hi Everyone,

We have taken things offline for the moment for most dynamic contributor related features.
Not to worry, your downloads are still being tracked and all sales are recorded. Our IT personnel will fix this as soon as we can.

Thank you,

Alex

Alex, thanks for checking in here, but all day is not 'for the moment'

If this outage was planned, a little notice would have been nice.  And an ETA for getting back online would be even nicer.

Alex, how many days is 'for the moment'?

Must be some kind of record for an outage.

I bet it was due to all my sales that crashed the system... ;D

At least it's only the contributor side.

Up and running again, with sales indicated during the "down time" for us.

Title: Re: 123RF- Wacked
Post by: Jo Ann Snover on February 04, 2013, 10:56

I can see stats again, but nothing I'd describe as "... for most dynamic contributor related features. " I can't see any differences at all. I also didn't see my 12 month total change and shouldn't that change at the beginning of each month? I don't upload to 123rf any more, so perhaps that's where these dynamic features are?

Does anyone else see any new contributor features?

Oh yes, big one! Major change in sold images versus income generated ratio.
