Website and forum down

Post by Lev »

As most of you are aware we have been offline for the last 48 hours. This is due to the fact that this site is hosted by an incompetent fool. The hurricane in New Orleans has been blamed for the server outage, at least that was the lame excuse I was given (the server is on the other side of the Atlantic).

Anyway its good to be back and we apologise to you all, I know you've missed us.

We will be transfering the site to another server in the coming weeks so there will be the odd glitch now and then but nowhere near the royal clusterf$%& that has just occurred.

I honestly thought that the nebulous message in Latin that we received a few days ago was a hacker attack warning and indeed, he crashed the site. Glad to hear I was wrong on that and that all is now back to normal. Pete

Oh that was just a troll who registered with a fake email account, I've already banned him and locked the post.

Lev, I'm not sure they have a package that can handle forum traffic but you may want to look at below. They are based in Toronto and owned by Tucows which is a good company. My site hasn't gone down for 4 years. Pete
