Here at my end (SW FL USA) everything has been working OK for almost a day. I also just quickly browsed thru your galleries and did not see any problems viewing them.

Ah, but have you clicked on the 'View full statistics' link in your profile? Things appear to still be less than 100%. Interestingly, sometimes I see a bunch of Asian characters, but sometimes there are a fair number of English words/phrases on the page that comes up.

==================================
I must admit that I see 'that' problem now, for the first time.
Whenever I go to my stats page, it is always from my home page --

Images: 3,243
Galleries: 184
Pageviews: 3,498,800

So I never saw it until now.

Pbase will likely get it cleared up. It is a little strange, but as long as 'everything else' is working the way it should I'm not going to fret over that. There have been worse situations in the pbase history.

Copy and paste(d) directly from this website:
How often are statistics updated?
The statistics are updated once a day around 2AM UTC.

The above statement will soon become erroneous if not
repaired sooner, than later.

For a [paid for] service... 'Patience is the Fruits of Endeavor' can only last for so long.

Here's to having the problem FIXED soon!

I see that the PBase notice about the DNS network issue is no longer posted on my profile page. I was hoping that the site statistics link was back up and running, but, sadly that is not the case. Still getting the Chinese page. |-(

As of 9AM Eastern Daylight Time (US) I see the stats page back and working.

(With the exception that you still have to go to 'root' then back to 'aggregate' for the other date links to work -- as it's been for weeks. So back to the latest "normal". :shock: )
