Welcome back!

Post by NSimkins »

Welcome back! Just creating a post to make an active topic since the downtime rolled over the 24-hour Active Topics list.Please report any issues you may find with the Forum to this thread.Before anyone asks, the downtime was related to previous other incidents where the database server needed rebooted manually (in person). That was done by the sysadmins and verifications were made on the database. Everything appears back to normal.Time to get your GVC fix once again! At least now some of you will have an excuse not to work... at work.

Thanks to all of those who remembered that when the forums were down, the chat still worked, and it was great to be able to talk with you all during the bleak darkness.

I love going on MO as well, but sometimes responses don't come quick enough when your sitting at your desk at work throwing pencils at the ceiling. Good to have this site back.

I too, had a dream involving a meet and GVC members last night. I think it's at this point where I realize I'm no longer my own person. GVC owns me.

Heh, nope. Rest assured that if you ever were (not that you will) you would know it. The forum would still pull up, a message would just be displayed saying the account has been disabled. That and we will NEVER ban an account without notifying you of any offense (and it takes one whopper of an offense) ahead of time. Seriously, we're not EVIL.

I thought maybe it had something to do with the hacker DOS attack on the ICANN servers...-->http://news.tmcnet.com/news/2007/02/07/2322115.htm
