The cPanel is not responding. Looks like a catastrophic host failure right now. I'm sure Wally will be onto the host to ask just where his hosting cash goes every month.

I dunno - he's threatened in the past to just shut the whole thing down. And him not being logged in at that particular time of day is rather odd.

OK, lets calm down and try not to whip up a storm here. The following evidence would suggest that he has not done that:-

- the cPanel does not come up. This is independent of the domain tfnn.net. If the server was re provisioned it would still come up, but the login would fail.
- No warning. Although that is badass, there has been no talk of shutting the thing down, not even in the skunkworks.
- Domain is still valid

I haven't been back there in a while. Seems I should grace everyone with my presence again soon.

And speaking of albanian llamas, Red hasn't poked his nose in here yet, though I noticed Olds couldn't stay away, he's having withdrawals like the rest of us.

You didn't get the memo? I am your personal Mod.

I'm honored, and more than a little aroused.

:Disgust;

edit
LOL sure loses it effect when it doesn't render correctly. Thanks FuseTalk.

I thought we agreed to never discuss that?

You know me, I am a cvnt.
I could have sworn that using that word meant a long vacation a while back. I guess it's back into play now?

Just ignore it, olds and I are "special" friends.

Edit: We now have the gay post, wheres Red so we can call this done?

Wait wheres moose?

We already have the gay post.

Damn, I missed that yesterday.

I mean really, just because I'm a male nurse, single custodial parent, drive a Miata (& own 2 of them), and have kittens as my avatar is no reason to suggest I'm gay (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Oh wait, shit, I really must be gay (not that there's anything wrong with that) :(

I doubt that's it. I just hope the forum database is in tact and he's kept an offsite backup.

DOH!!!

Hopefully Wally logs on to AIM or calls me back soon.

The host takes backups that are not kept on the dedicated TFNN server. I have an offsite backup of the DB, but it's a little old...

What's the date of your most recent backup? Hopefully it's within the past month or so?

If someone gets ahold of Wally, please PM sixone for my cell phone number and ask him to call me.

Thanks!

This happened, if this is what is going on, with a host called Host Rocket on a board I used to frequent a long time ago. We lost everything and had to start anew.
