Icon_frown Forum downtime
As you have noticed, the forum was down for about a week.

Actually it seems to be virtually exactly a week.

What happened was apparently the server was exhibiting signs of being hacked. The people at 1und1 shut it down because of that, and from what i've been told it's been like pulling teeth getting them to fix it (they've been saying it was going to be up soon for days)

Apparently the firewall got disabled somehow, which is what caused it originally. Anyway we're back now so woot.

RE: Forum downtime
yay! No explodeys! I was worried there for a while...
Ironic that yesterday was Thanksgiving here in the U.S. Now I have even more to be thankful for.

I'm just glad there weren't backup issues.

Ditto. Down forums = bloodthirsty fatmus. Icon_sad

Now, about that transfer to the mrx server you were considering... if we can get a working backup handy and test it beforehand, do you still think that'd be worth it?

RE: Forum downtime
Something to consider, too: if it doesn't work out, will they let you come back easily?

I missed this place. And thus, I am now going to chain myself to this forum. And hug it too ^_^.

RE: Forum downtime
Damn.

And I was hoping for another forum apocalypse too.

Seriously, I had money on it.

Alas, my pessimism remains unfounded.

RE: Forum downtime
It's been entirely too long since the last party on Shuryou's lawn, I say. We should hold them more often. As long as we don't have to bring the forum down every time.
