When this site went down

~kev~ · 03-20-2007, 02:05 PM

Hello everyone, I have been a long time lurker here. A few months ago I signed up and posted a few things but did not really get involved. When this site went down, I thought it might be a sign of things to come - that someone said "screw it, FF is dead." Thank all of you that worked hard to get the site back up and running. Having a website myself, I know how hard it is to recover after a crash. Once again, I just want to say thank you to everyone that cared enough to get FF back up and running.

When this site died, Circ closed FireFox, SirTiger went to see his shrink for the first time in months, bl4h cried and Schtoofa got no sleep.

Oh, and its not really that hard to backup your site, it just nobody can ever be arsed to do it.

You're welcome, and you're right - getting things "back in order" was frustrating and time-consuming. We're still sorry that it happened and that folks like you had to have the down-time.

Big thanks to Schtoofa and some other dudes who personally had to do a lot of monotonous monkey-boy work to get everything running again. Fun it wasn't.

Did you just call schtoofa a monkey? Because if you did, I couldn't agree more.

Man, why you gotta lump me with those bastards? So harsh.

Also, leaving Firefox open eats my RAM. D:

This might, though.

Having your site hacked/crash and lose data is like some sort of ritual for Source mods, apparently.
