Forum downtime

[Thrik]

The difference being I was in a different country with no convenient computers and no awareness of the problem, Johnny. Try as I might, I can't sit here 365 days a year monitoring the site. 350~ days a year isn't a bad number, though.

I could have gotten a taxi to the town with an internet cafe to fix this if I'd known about it, but I was unfortunately completely ignorant. I was counting on the server performing as it has done for months with zero hiccups, and of course as fate is a cruel bitch the server went and threw a wobbly almost immediately after my plane took me into the clouds.

Still, as I said I'll be providing mobile phone number to various people so they can reach me in cases of emergencies from now on.

It was indeed some tough days to go through! It doesn't seem like that much can be done to prevent this except for maybe giving a few other people access to the server.

Shit happens and things break. Good work on getting it up again Thrik.
