Were we down sunday??

Post by garhkal »

Twice, i tried getting on the site yesterday (sunday the 15th), once around 1pm and the other around 5pm) and both times i got errors.. So was the site offline? The base PADND site was accessible, but not the forums..

I accessed the forums on my phone via the Wi-Fi at the bookstore on Sunday, 9:45 a.m. Pacific Time, which would be 11:45 Central Time. That's not too long before you tried, you are in Central Time right? Strange. :?

Not that I'm aware of, but if our host has a Hard Drive die, where the MYsqL data is stored, that would be a reason why the forums would go down, but not the main site. They would simply replace it, cycle the backup tape drive and everything would continue on as normal. ;)

With regard to our game forums being down, I got the following email from Cole earlier today:
"Gaming forums restored, sorry it took me a bit, worked 15 hours yesterday.
Enjoy and please apologize for me. No data was lost.
Cheers
Cole"
