Does anyone know why the boards were down for three days? It wasn't just me, right?

I never realized how often I visited this place until it stopped working... [Hail]

Some sort of server issue.

There's some details here. Scroll to the bottom of the page, where BlackBlade says something about a server virus. The conversation continues for a few pages from there.

I'm sorry I didn't have a chance to contact you folks here. I didn't realize it was back up until I was at work.

From what I have been advised, some sort of security breach has necessitated the boards be migrated to another server. There may be interruption to service and intermittent access for a week or two.

Wow, I never go to Sake, but it's like visiting Hatrack four or five years ago via some kind of time machine. I miss all those guys.

Posted by BlackBlade (Member # 8376) on :

Mmhmm. It'd be nice if some of them came back.

Posted by Jeff C. (Member # 12496) on :

That's too bad about the virus situation. However, maybe this will finally prompt OSC to update the forum software.

Despite what Jake says in that thread, I've seen him around here enough to recognize his name. He's not as absent as he thinks [Roll Eyes]

The last time I went to SR was ages ago. Hatrack was down then, too.

Posted by Kwea (Member # 2199) on :

I miss some of them too. Just not enough to go back to SR.

It is what it is.....I am glad we are back up and running, I was a little bit worried. [Big Grin]

Well well... I just went to my comic book forum and they have blocked it, pronouncing it to be under attack by a virus. I do not like this trend.

Oh hey - we're back! Missed everyone.

A forbidden place.

The secrets hidden there... suffice to say that I can no longer bring myself to eat meat.

Many have been traumatized. Few return. Alive.
