Jan. 24 Downtime For All Mania's Sites
Posted: Sun Jan 24, 2010 2:39 pm
[update] We're back up! And earlier than I expected -- turns out Jon's really good. :>
I've just learned from our hosting system administrator (also known as our friend Jon) that he needs to do some emergency maintenance on our server boxes later today.
Basically this means that all my sites -- these forums, Petopia itself, Warcraft Mounts and Mania's Arcania -- will be down for a couple of hours this evening.
Unfortunately, because of the type of maintenance he needs to do, I won't be able to have any sort of useful message up while this is happening, so anyone who wanders in during the maintenance will only see that the sites are down. So if you see someone freaking out, please let then know that we'll be back up in an hour or two.
The sites will be going down around 5pm EST and should be back up by 8pm EST. Thanks for bearing with us through this!
