amibay broken again?

That's usually the norm, most good site admins would do this.

You must live on a better Internet than I do...

I call BS to it being a planned outage as I was using it when I started getting database errors!

you don't have to be banned to realise its not a very good forum.

I like it for buying from the HW guru's tho but this is definitely a more friendly Miggy discussion forum tho. :afro:

I beg to differ, it's quite a nice forum as long as you read and respect the rules.

From here:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Amibay is great, there's a few good eggs on there and it's the only way to deal with some hardware gurus :-)

Indeed... and great for n00bs and buying stuff... and the support is awesome.
 

Amibay is great

Ditto... it's equivalent to not having any water to drink atm...

Lol'd... really? - What on earth did you do to get BANNED?

Probably the same reason as all the others, being cocky and thinking they are better then everyone else (I.E. Being a general troll). I think out of all the times people have been banned, only once was there one I didn't agree with. Can't be done with people like that. . .

As for the down time, it would have been nice to have been given some advance warning about this.

Just as I thought

It depends on the infraction. If it's general trolling the member is often given a warning but if anyone breaks the trading rules or thumbs their nose at an Amibay moderator... "Hasta la vista baby"! :uzi:

Anyways, anyone hear anything about when it back up?

[save2600]

Hopefully, someone over there is working on combining this Pulu dudes spam into one single thread. Whoever thinks listing dozens of games separately (giving each one their own thread), needs their ever loving head checked.

Nothing specific yet..
From what I hear, the planned upgrade involved taking Apache from 1.3 to 2.x (among other things), and that broke things (I would expect it to)..

Last I heard, the Amibay admins have identified what they believe is the issue with Apache  and notified the hosting company...
