Server Outage

[Seret Sajet]

Just wanted to apologize to you folks for the server outage we've had over the past few days. Seems our host had a slew of problems from botched software upgrade to spam mail servers gumming up the works. It took some time but it looks like we're back up and running.

Thanks for you patience and most of all... thanks for coming back.

Well...I was seriously about to organize a lynch mob to visit the host.

[Hashum]

Indeed I'm suffering from withdrawl.

[Jaminos]

*foam from mouth finialy subsides* It's back!!!

[Ekade]

*falls forward, kissing the screen on her laptop*

It's back... thank Goddess it's back!!

*rolls around on the floor, joyfully hugging her laptop*




(( ok, that was a bit much.. but I am goofy like that. ))

[Seret Sajet]

I was told many EMTs were sent out to SWG Tales users homes in the hopes of calming some of the effects of withdrawl during the outage. We hope you all pulled through. I myself relied heavily on a leather bit and large quantities of cough medication. Because of this I learned the following...

- Time to look for a new host
- Ten little Ekade's floating above you and smashing you in the head with tiny power hammers is not fun
- Never take that much cough medication again

Thanks for sticking with us during the pains of an outage and thank you helping us come up with our new slogan....

"SWG Tales: Its like crack only legal!"

[Isleh]

*shoves the empty cough syrup case under her desk with her toe*



What?

I just want all of you to know who hosts our site: edatarack.com

And if you would like to google that, here are the top hits on conversations for our webhost on google groups:

If anyone has recommendations on good *nix-based web hosts, I am all ears.

My friend Greg, (Seret knows him as Mortimer) from the BFassassins clan ||ASS||, has had their site hosted with them for about a year and a half and haven't had any problems at all, To verify that I will email him and ask him abuot it (haven't talked to him in a few weeks)..

But the main he went with them is his old site got the axe for innapropriate material, this company doesn't have rules against any material except for copyright stuff, (not that matters much to us just letting you know).

anyway I'm gonna shoot him an email and see what he says, will get back to you shortly..

Mort! Now there's a refreshing name to hear. I do chat with him from time to time but its pretty rare. I'll look into that host and try to contact a few ||ASS|| folks for the 411.

I'm also in contact with a few of the other BF gaming clans we've befriended in the past. HPSF currently has a host that sounds tempting.

But to all the SWG Tales folks out there just remember we'll do whatever we can to find a better host but right now we are limited finacially and breaking contract with our host now may cost us more than its worth.

I figured as much, that kinda sucks, but you never know, maybe they shape up...

Lies! All lies!

Don't believe them people...I know what's going on!

The evil SWGtales team is testing their new superweapon; the Death star IP blocker.

They tested it out on all of us by blocking our addresses and they are systematically lifting the ban on those that they want to include in their weird cult that worships George Lucas and sends all of their money to Skywalker Ranch! Its a Hoax! See through the Lies!

It's a scandal! It's Tale-gate 2K5!!!!

I have no idea what you're talking about
(code 6: silence Del'tar by any means necessary)

What? No I didn't say anything. We're all just happy to have you here in the community along with your wondering and not at all tasteless testicular jokes.
(just bring me back an ear I don't care which one. How hard is that to understand?)

Everything is fine, nothing to see here.
This is not the site you're looking for. Move along.
