If a friendly mod would like to correct my dodgy BB coding, so much the better!

Just got into this a couple of months ago. It's fun! I've been using the ILXor group track charts as a weekly listening list and it's a a decent way to stay on top of things. Although I'm bored by Kanye now. And the charts haven't been updated since xmas. But apart from that, awesomeness!

you did miss it.

the iphone app keeps crashing on me, super annoying
is this happening to anyone else? i updated and it didn't help.

dunno no fancy schmancy iphone here

so a quarter of users have lost their libraries. Who else is affected?

ATTENTION - ALL USERS

Nothing has been lost, we're re-sharding our database which has affected a quarter of our userbase. It may take up to 8 hours for your library information to re-appear on your profile.

In the meantime, please ensure you are using a client which will cache your scrobbles, e.g. the Last.fm client (www.last.fm/download).

Note: Spotify will cache your scrobbles, however quitting the app (Mac/PC client, or mobile) will delete the cache. Please make sure you keep the app open so you don't lose anything.

This was completely an unexpected side effect of increasing the capacity of our scrobble database. Please be assured that no data has been lost!

For more information, please read:

http://status.last.fm/

Thank you for your patience with this issue.

Guys, when it looks like someone's listened to the same song 75 times in a row, that's actually their iPhone scrobbling when they plug it in (i.e. iPhone uploads scrobbles to last.fm via USB).

Yeah, I'm affected, thanks for pasting that Kerr

No plays since 18 Apr 2007

mine is fine now, has been for 4 or 5 hours

http://www.last.fm/forum/21713/_/2017365

ANNOUNCEMENT: Site Outage 20 October 2011
Site Outage 20 Oct 2011

Yesterday evening, at around 6.47 pm London time, Last.fm suffered a site-wide outage after serious hardware failure.

While we were able to restore service relatively quickly, around eight hours of data has been lost. This includes profile information, event data and new registrations.

We are working hard to try and recover as much of the data as possible, and are extremely sorry about the disruption.

Under normal conditions this outage would have lasted a couple of minutes, but as it occurred during planned maintenance work our primary backup was unavailable. This meant we had to revert to our secondary backup which is updated at intervals. This is why we are currently missing around eight hours of user data.

As we restore service to Last.fm we'll be examining the databases very carefully to see if we can restore the missing data. We'd also like to note that while we initially reported that scrobbles had been affected we now know that not to have been the case, however some tracks may not be displaying correctly on profiles.

Again, we're extremely sorry about the loss of data and the service disruption, and we'll be working as hard as we can to get everything back to normal quickly.

List of issues you may currently be experiencing:

Any new user profiles between 11am and 7pm may no longer exist.
Mixed up posts on the forums (when you post a new message)
Problems posting new shouts, or deleting shouts
Messages in your Sent Items from today that appear to be from other users

Coldplay are still the least obscure artist on last.fm http://obscurometer.com/statistics.php <---- most mainstream artists on last.fm
who knew the killers were still popular?

no i mean about you not knowing that Killers were big; here in US they have a good five or six songs on the radio

Ratfuckers don't live in a world that features radios and jukeboxes.

bahaha, came here to post ILXORS account. genuinely confused/humored/wondering why anyone would mock a community by intentionally listening or allowing to play shitty music purely so they can rage against a community unknown to the majority of the public, indie and otherwise.
