CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Is it just me, or for the last couple of days... not too many have posted? Seriously, if I don't come on here for a day, in "get new" there's like 5 new pages... now it's down to like hardly 2 :/ Very unusual I think...

Is there like some sort of event this weekend so people are busy or what? Finals of something maybe? I dunno what else can explain why not as many people have posted, or even been on lately^^ (And yes I realize there's been server down time and stuff... unless that IS the ultimate culprit so people are waiting a bit to come back on or something^^)

Its because the normal CAA address dosn't work and not everyone knows the workaround.

Oh really? I just have the site saved to my bookmarks, and it's been working fine the entire time...

Aparently you've book marked the IP address instead of the normal address, lol. The normal system should be back up and running soon, though I'm no longer putting an actual date/time on "soon."

Ohhhhhh.... huh apparently I did something right on the computer for once (knowing all the problems I tend to encounter^^)

Strictly speaking, you did something wrong that just happens to have worked this time. Consider it a statistical cluster anomoly.

Typically, for each time that I've been able to access the CAA, I've had about seven or eight misfires where I end up with error messages. I bet all the absentees are dealing with the same issues. Oh wells, it'll be over soon-ish I imagine ^^

Hopefully, so some certain people I need to speak to will finally come back... >_>

*peels potatoes as he waits* Please let it be REALLY soon! I know you guys are working hard to put it back up! Thanks for everything.

I've tried both the IP address and the normal URL the last few days. I could get on via the IP address for a bit, but it didn't work very well. The URL didn't work at all. I guess that would be the reason behind the low numbers.

I am just glad there was like only one time last night that the backup didn't work..
*huggles back up Ip addy*

Though I have to wonder if uploading images and making new threads is hurting the site more than helping...

(which is why I have refrained from uploading any images )

Wow, I feel out of the loop...

I've had all my A level exams (done now, Yays!) so I've just been... gone...
Oh, well. Life goes on.

NOTE: I got on here using the URL address without any trouble.

Things seem to be working fine now again.

Interesting that CAA forums and the other one I am always on, Fire & EMS Watchdesk go into maintainance at the sametime. The Watchdesk posted that it will be down until July the forth.
I guess too many messages were posted with so many things attached to them.
If it was up right now the forum would be smoking over the dirty politics that were pulled to prevent the Firefighters Bill of Rights from being readied to be made into law by the Fire Chief's office and the union membership.
The volunteer firefighters and their officers have been taking alot of unnecessarily punishments for things they had no control over with no hearings, just suspensions.

People who didn't know the exact IP Address of the site were, more or less, locked out this past week. But it looks like everything is back online!

I was about ready to say "it still doesn't work for me!" when I tried the regular site... and now it works! YAYyyyyyyy!!!!!!!

*Azier summons everybody back to CAA!

hmm...some people say the URL is working, but it has yet to work for me. Is it only working for a select few? *puzzled* The only way I can get here now is the IP addy.

I've been gone for a while.......Got carried away by some other sites.

more ppl now are starting to get back on with the proper address. soon it should be back to its usual self.

The url worked fine for me...considering it's been a year since I've posted! LOL

Coincidentally, your return occured just after CAA went through some serious down time.

Wow! Go me! Talk about timing! XD

I haven't been able to get on since last Friday until now.I been having a long several days discussion with sao sakura about it and we were both puzzled about what was happening.Hopefully she can get back on again soon as well.

*looks at get new to see over SEVEN pages of new stuff*

Yup! Things are finally back to normal^^

That's not, strictly speaking, true. But I'd rather people didn't bookmark the IP address directly - since those change from time to time. It SHOULD go much more smoothly then it did this last time. If I feel the need, I may post a breakdown of what really happened.
