NEW TOYS! CEO is upgrading!

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Example... your avatar is:
https://cambodiaexpatsonline.com/downloa ... 263175.jpg
and also
http://108.166.183.28.com/download/file ... 263175.jpg

They point to exactly the same thing now that the DNS has updated globally. Click on both and see what you get.
I have no issues with avatars. But, yes, I have noticed the odd symbols in various places.

Clicking on the first link above works for me.
The second link gives a 'Server not found' error. Immediately.

However, this one works http://108.166.183.28/download/file.php ... 263175.jpg
[notice there's no dot com]

The avatars - possibly a cache issue, confusion caused by duplicate files for same reported (but physically different) domain. Try clearing the cache just for giggles, Jaap.

there's not supposed to be a dot com... it's an ipaddress (which is what the dot com names get translated into by dns behind the scenes). weird that it's not working for you.

and the odd symbols will be a universal issue with the database. everyone sees them like that.

Umm, it was you who gave the dot com in the link!

I just have a habit of assuming people hard refresh (Shift-F5) before posting issues.

LoL, I've honestly never heard of shift+f5 before.

Does that make me a bad person? Image
