*'''2005-08-10''': A customer pointed out some Mountain shirts which were still being listed in child sizes only when in fact they are in adult sizes only. I had written a database query to find all child-size-only shirts, and checked each one it found, but it turns out (as I discovered when I checked into the particular shirt in question) that the query had a bug. Fixed the bug and about 10 more mis-entered shirts showed up. They have now been fixed.

*I've been buying up discontinued Mountain shirts in pre-paks as the budget permits -- one pre-pak every order or two -- and I noticed last night that the most recent one was listed in one place as "in stock" and in another as "unavailable". I've [[vbznet:cat/mt/1341/|fixed that too]].
 
*'''2005-07-27''': The [[2005-07-11 Server Outage]] crisis would seem to be over, as the cart system is running again. Although I didn't get the [[VbzCart|new cart system]] running, I did get a lot of work done on it... and vbz.net now has its own SSL certificate!
 
*'''2005-07-19''': a catalog data entry goof -- apparently a lot of new Mountain shirts had been entered as available in youth sizes only, when in fact they are available in adult sizes only. I'm rebuilding that part of the catalog right now.
 
:...and hey, we just got our first [[WikiPedia:Link spam|wiki spam]]! Someone at 69.50.191.168 posted a whole bunch of porn links here on the main page. Congratulations to this anonymous spammer, and hope that we never find out who you are.
 
*'''2005-07-15''': Most of the static pages are back up, as are the images, but the shopping cart still is not quite right and the checkout is not online at all; please see [[2005-07-11 Server Outage]] for more information.
 
*'''2005-07-12''': Still working on getting vbz.net (the main store) back up and running. Uploading thousands of files is slow, even with cable, and a lot of the stuff has to be rebuilt. Plus (while other things upload) I'm also playing around with oscommerce, in the vain hope that I might be able to get it to be workable with the catalog data I have now, because that would be... so awesome, as they say. (Proper "live" order management, just to start with, and about a zillion other features.)
 
*'''2005-07-05''': I just now discovered that a lot of emails I've been sending have been bouncing, and I wasn't notified because my spam filters were filing them away out of sight. Just one more reason [[Anti-Spam Policy|spam is evil]] (two more reasons, actually, as the bounces were also due to spam safeguards). '''Anyone who has emailed me recently and didn't get an answer''', please [[Contact|try again]]. ''(Grrrrrr.)''

Introduction

Hello and welcome to the VBZ Wiki! This area is intended as an open forum for members of the vbz.net community (customers, suppliers, artists, fans, family, friends, and critics). Many businesses seem to be almost afraid of their customers, hiding their contact information behind layers of "please read this FAQ first" and "please select the nature of your inquiry"; here, you can take the steering wheel. (More about this here.)

You can create an account if you'd like to have a name attached to your posts; otherwise it will just show your IP address. Please read the Wiki Guidelines before making any significant changes, however.

As of November 21, 2024, VbzWiki has 121 articles.
