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.

Not that it's happened to me but I just feel like I have to report this but like thym★cerpin said it seems like the fauxs that some people claimed from the faux box returned back to the boxes and are now being claimed by other users. I know this because I was stalking the faux box yesterday....

This faux from an auction we bid on seems to be floating around in the aywas void, and we didnt get any notice saying we won or lost. https://www.aywas.com/pet_auction/view/188313/
When the site went down we had the highest bid, but that bid and one other bid aren't showing up on the page. We haven't gotten any bp back from auctions either. Sorry for the wall of text, lol

Deposit Box/Inventory pages seem to be missing the header links (Regeneration Status, etc.)

Trying to upload a file to create a custom pet gives this error - "Cannot upload the file `pet_upload` for the following reason(s): Folder to upload file to is not writable."
Also, there were some auctions I was involved with that expired yesterday before/during rollover. I don't know when it usually happens, but I have not received my money back from them

The artist PBC pages are slow loading and I got a 503 when checking my unfinished breeding. It cleared up on a second try though the one baby I'd loaded is gone (no biggie as I can reload it)

I caught that a couple of game pages are blank - Counting Items, Crystal Ball, Crystal Quarry, and Tak's CDs were the ones I encountered; when I clicked on them, they just showed a blank page.

Ah, also, I just noticed, I got a Wintermint Soli from the Glittering Slab late last night, and I do not have it today. Aywapedia is showing that I don't own it. Hope there's a way to restore it, it's a pretty cute Soli.
Good luck, mods, and thank you for your hard work!
