Forum downtime and issues today

#91 Post by Monsie »

Thanks, James C

Yeah, the more I think about it, the more likely it seems to be something not quite right at my end...

Yes, the forum was down for about 6 hours today. John Murga fixed it. That's all I know about it. :)

Hi, Flash.

Phew, I'm sure glad the forum's back online! I almost went into withdrawal! :wink:

Many thanks to John Murga.

You do understand the seriousness of these outages Flash.

There might be an infinite number of people waiting for
a sarcastic post from me.

Not happy Jan.

Hello mods/admins.

Strange but I'm not receiving info (e-mail) about new posts in topics I'm 'watching'. It all started two days ago when I wasn't able to view forum pages for almost 12 hours. :?: I'm pretty sure that was not a problem with my ISP because everything else was fine, torrenting included. 8)
Thank you.

Was down for me for a while too -- and now I'm getting the occasional error message on submitting (smack me, I didn't write it down!)...

Hey John, did something fall off a table over there?

I get an error message when I post as well, however the posting
is successful. Every thing else is okay.

The forum was out of action for some hours Sunday. John said it was some kind of hosting issue. Give it a few days for the confusion to clear up.

Symptoms make me think either they transferred us to a different server box and it didn't go smoothly, or a hard drive somewhere barfed up a lung.

Just sayin'.

Well, that was interesting. Was the forum down for anyone else today?

Would love to know why, when the techs have a minute... but that's just me being nosy ;)

Oh course if an administrator or moderator announced the problem and the fix, we would not have to be asking each other if the forum was down.

Waiting for someone to post "Is the fourm back up?"

I have no idea why the forum went down today. All I know is, I couldn't get on it this morning, so, figuring nobody else could either, I did something else instead. :?
