Unable to save generators, create new ones, or access my current ones - Lemmy.World
Pretty self-explanatory, I’m unable to create generators, save my old ones, or
access them through my account. I’ve been on Perchance for over a year, and this
has never been an issue, but all of a sudden I’m met with this message: Seems
like there was a problem while trying to save your generator. This could be to
do with your internet connection, but it could also be a temporary problem with
the server. Please copy and paste your generator data (lists and HTML) to a safe
place before leaving or refreshing the page, or you could lose your work. If you
keep getting errors even after waiting a couple of minutes, please make a post
on lemmy.world/c/perchance to see if others are experiencing the same thing.
Remember that you can click the “backups” button in the top-right of the screen
to download past versions of your generator. Before doing anything though, make
sure you copy and paste your data to a safe place! Sorry for the trouble - this
stuff happens sometimes :| This has been going on for several weeks, and not
gonna lie, I’m getting kind of worried. I have multiple games and generators on
here, and I doubt I can find somewhere else to host them that is as accessible
and convenient as Perchance, but I’m seriously considering looking into
alternatives. I can’t even get the backup versions, because it’s just “save”
(broken), and account, nor can I access most of my generators, since going to
‘view your generators’ gives me a “there was a problem loading your generators
¯_(⊙ʖ⊙)/¯ check your internet connection? if the problem persists, please post
to forum” message. I’ve had internet every time I try this, so it’s not an
internet issue, I can still do whatever can be done with internet… so long as
it’s not on Perchance. Any advice, any solutions, any reassurances that
Perchance is NOT closing, it’s just bugged? Because I’m honestly kind of
freaking out, seeing as I spent ages coding a game for my books as an
interactive storyline, and I can’t access that now.
