Hey folks,
We've been having a consistent problem with Rapture Chat over the last 6 months or so with database error messages. The problem was in faulty chat programming code that did not properly close MySQL database connections.
As a result, I would receive a ton of email database error messages and the board would be down until the problem was fixed. This is why many of you came to see the default Vbulletin database error message page.
So....we tried a few times to fix the chat programming code but nothing seemed to work. In fact, it actually made things worse.
Now we have installed a new chat software package and the problems seem to have gone away. We are currently not receiving any database error messages and the Rapture Chat links have been redirected to the new Rapture Chat pages so that you will be able to continue participating in interactive chat sessions.
Thank you for your patience as we worked to resolve the Rapture Chat issues.
