where is everybody? v_v

Postby Tenshi no Ai » Wed Jun 14, 2006 6:11 pm

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^^)

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."

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

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 ^^

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..

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.
Will insert something intelligent here later... maybe

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. :banned: :bang:

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!

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.

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.
