[3beansalad]

I thought it was this POS PC...

[RblDiver]

*Refresh* Is it up yet? *Refresh* How about now? *Refresh* :P

[kwando]

i thought work was blocking me

[Boadie30]

Noticed it too.. Thought when I finally got on there would be others commenting on it..

[Gunner]

It happens around here every so often

[patrick0685]

yep...this is by far not the worst

[sellersm]

[Sawin]

I don't know about you, but I'm pretty sure it was the alphabet agencies installing their bugs. hahahaha

[davsel]

[blacklabel]

Yes, this was me. On my PC. On my iPad. On my phone. Every few minutes.

[rondog]

Oh good, it's back! Now I can stop flopping around on the floor!

[hghclsswhitetrsh]

I blame NSA.

[Ronin13]

I blame NSA.
That was my first thought... Oh god, we've been shut down! [panic] Dammit, Nynco came back with a vengeance! Or who was that one guy that was on a month or so ago that did nothing but trash talk and argue with everything?

[HoneyBadger]

Oh good, it's back! Now I can stop flopping around on the floor!

Exactly! I'm glad there is at least ONE PERSON here who understands!

I got tired of herding cats and had to get some work done. So I mowed the lawn, fixed the garage door and then turned it back on.[Flower]

Actually "J" would know the details. As said it has happened before. forgot to pay the bill once, the hosting company did not like guns claimed we were using too much bandwidth so one of there "monitors" shut us down and the list goes on.

[Singlestack]

Beuhler? Beuhler?

[sniper7]

Never had a problem

The whole server went down (and another in the rack coincidentally). Unfortunately I was stuck in client meetings for 2 hours and couldn't attend to it right away.

They are the top two servers, so I think I need to look into the temperatures at the top of the rack and see if some things need to be shuffled. Also, some shorter cables are on order to reduce the amount of bundled cables in the rack limiting air-flow.

Glad you fixed it... can't thank you enough for the thankless and hard work you put in keeping us plugged in here! [Beer]

Our AC unit is shitting itself in our server room... so not a good thing. It was 90 in there on sunday.

I remember the 'good ole days' when we had huge fans in the server room, open-ended AC cooling ducts pointed at the back of the servers, and everyone "thinking cool thoughts"!! It's amazing how "far we've advanced" and heat still kills us...

ETA: thanks for bringing us back online! The mental image of HoneyBadger & rondog 'flopping around on the floor' necessitates mental chlorine! [LOL]

Thanks for your rapid attention J! Was Colorado CCW the other server that was down?

well, oddly enough I was rather efficient at work this afternoon. hmmm.....

[brutal]

I thought it was the three VPN's and a WebEx I was running at once. One of the client VPN's doesn't let me split tunnel and they do block lots of stuff, but not it seems, this site. :D
