Site Update
QUICK UPDATES
We're getting there. Standing Stones is back online and upload errors throughout the site should be resolved now. If you are still encountering issues uploading files, please let us know
----------
Uploading custom pets should be functional now. We're working on getting the other upload files to work next, such as offspring and PSD files. Thanks for you patience <33
----------
First off, I'd like to apologize that this took so long. The initial software update was completed around noon today, but upon testing the site out we realized there was about three hours of information lost from the database. The backup process started sooner than we plan and the final synchronization did not sync the new information before starting the upgrades. We tried restoring the database from the old disk drive, but that resulted in corrupted information. So instead, we decided to just take the three hours of lost information to the unknown lost information from the corruption. Almost nine hours later, here we are.
The software update was important for Aywas because it not only closed potential vulnerabilities, it will allow us to look to the future of what we can now do for the site with our new software!
We're going to look into what we can do to try and recover the information from that three hour period (10pm - 1am), but in the mean time we decided to just enable the site again in the mean time. You may encounter some errors with the site (many of them being deprecated errors). Just report them to us and I'll work on getting them resolved as soon as I can. In the mean time I am going to try and get the staff together so we can begin discussing where we are going to go from here.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to post them in the comments or PM them to me directly.

Concerning the custom pet upload- if for some reason it takes a long time to fix, will certain custom makers get an extension to their deadlines? I have a pet I'd like to make with an RCC, with one of the old Osiem bases. I have both the RCC item and the pets image, but I can't upload right now due to coding fixing. Will I still be able to make that pet if the feature is fixed after they retire again? (According to the KB the Osiem bases will retire again on June 16th, no time given)

Dangit, I lost a long message I posted last night in a private message on here. Ah well, shouldn't be too hard to rewrite, just is a little inconvenient.
Glad the site is back up!

i swore i bid 66-68 GP on a reaper-like snoodle auction right before I logged off. Which, funnily enough, was around 10-ish, right when stuff started to disappear.. so for all I know I was outbid after that and that got "eaten" as well so no harm no foul... Buuuuut the bid isn't there and I lost it. Not that I super care, I'm satisfied w/ what I got. just thought I should mention it. Also, i won some bids but ended up paying less for them in the end because I kinda one upped myself on some (to -try- and secure them aka discourage snipers.. as I'd be sleep when the auctions ended.) before I went to bed and the winning bids were lower so i sorta owe the previous owner more GP maybe (i admit my memory isn't the best and its been like a /whole/ 24 hours D; ) or is is it just whatever happened, happened and let it be??... Like i said, my memory isn't the best but, on the flipside, do think I got back the GP I spent though (regarding lost auctions. same with lost BP ones. which was like every BP acution I was involved with barring one site pet one??), even with bids missing.. so I'm guessing stuff in limbo is fixed to the extent it could be?? I seem to have all the fauxes I won (though again, idk if maybe I was outbid in the limbo time.. though I really hope not regarding one faux ;-; ). i don't think I won anything other than fauxes + a site pet (?)... I stupidly deleted all my won and lost auction notices though to make sure I got what I should have back.. 'orz

The Kaz-Shoe birthday thing does not seem to actually be sending pets when it succeeds :(

I made a bid on this https://www.aywas.com/pet_auction/view/188300/ of 850000 bp. I'm not sure if there were any larger bids, but I know for certain it was more than the current winning bid.
