Irc Downtime
« on: April 27, 2010, 02:35:50 PM »
Due to some office maintenance at the IRC server location, there is some schedueled downtime (just a day or two).  While it's down, there's always the forum :P

EDIT by Mez: IRC server is up

Galactic never left?  He just doesn't post often.  And by often I mean ever.  :P

He doesn't have to be extremely active to make sure things happen. I'm sure we have a way of contacting him should the need arise. If you have a problem with his activity, take it up with him, not the public board.

I talked to Galactic last night and they are supposed to be installing the networking Wednesday (5/5 or so).

There isn't much we can do currently; irc runs on a machine that's not in a datacenter environment due to restrictions on what we can do (most of them either disallow IRC in their acceptable use policy or block it at the network border, due to its tendency to be used for illegal purposes such as controlling zombies that are part of a botnet).

As Blackbox said, it looks like Wednesday. I will get an update for you guys on Monday to see if it is able to be completed sooner. Hang in there!

Well, would you rather the zombies just wander around aimlessly to munch on our brains at will?  :P

Comments like this remind me of how much safer I feel in the UK where most people don't have guns and for the most part don't actually need them

No; comments like this remind me that the human race is still evolving.  Hope that shotgun under your pillow doesn't accidentally go off!

a shotgun under your pillow let me know how good of sleep you get with some thing that bulky and hard under that pillow. your better off with a pistol one its smaller two its better indoors three its easier to aim indoors.

That's because you're all a bunch of pansies!
But with the zombie thing... i have to agree.


ANYWAY... yah, putting it up on Cinco De Mayo?  Why, no one is going to be on to check if it works. And I didn't know there was someone named Galactic... probrably because I joined only in december of 09.

Don't assume that all of us are drnkards.  Personally, I'll be here because I'm the exception to the age-21-observation of straight edgers :P

I don't know for certain, but I believe CK9 is saying he doesn't drink?
