Yesterday we got some support from IPS (makers of the forum software) to resolve an issue where sometimes replying to topics either didn't complete (didn't show you the saved post being added on) or in some cases even threw up a database driver error. This, in a nutshell, had to do with how likes are processed within topics, and appears to be a bug in 3.2.x versions.

This has now been patched by DaveLegg. So if it happens again please let us know (but do screenshot what happens though).

Happened to me earlier though but didn't screenshot it because I didn't know that it was "fixed" - i'll check and post back if it happens again

A screenshot of the driver error page doesn't contain any useful information anyway, all it tells us is an error occurred. There are many possible reasons for seeing that page, we fixed one of them, its not surprising that others still occasionally happen.

Cripe, did it take long enough to get that fixed, or what? I'll believe it when I realise it, but it sure has been a total pain to post here at times.

Actually hasn't been running to bad the last few days. Here's hoping!! :)

      The site is pretty sparse on features / tech specs. Can I plug it into a PC/hone/Switch via USB-C and use it as an external display? If so, what's the virtual resolution of the screen, the refresh rate, PPI of the image etc? Is the text crisp enough to use for coding at say 12pt? Is it good enough for playing dark games, like say Path of Exile 2? How about fast games like car racing games? Just how do they expect anyone to order this thing without giving out all this info?
