Or is it just me? :-?
-
Nope, they have been hacked.
-
no access for me to...
-
Yes, i'm getting "Connection Refused" here. At a guess, I'd say they're probably moving the website over to the faster server that they currently run quake.amigaworld.net from, or something similr.
-
Yep, down, but not out.
-
This couldn't be the work of the infamous...You don't think it could be the...Is, he back?
-
I suppose someone could have written a script for him...
-
It started to act strange around midnight yesterday...
and this morning it was up but one couldnt post....abit later one couldnt log in...
i think its been FRAGGED to death... :-D

@ 1337DOG
Perhaps maintenance? A post (http://www.ann.lu/detail.cgi?category=unmoderated&file=1107422947.msg) from DaveP, is saying that they're working to bring it back fast.

Is the Quake2 server online?
I hope to have my favorite website online again... slow days at work :-P

Funnily enough....My post was the last one that made it through. It stayed up as the top thread for a couple of hours too before I got the urge to post again and ask why no-one was responding.....was it something I said. ;-)
But now the whole thing's gone down....t'wasn't me... honest. :-)
I didn't even type in CAPS or anything. ;-)
Hope they're up soon........ I need my fix dammit!!! :-D
Ok. Going back to my happy place now. Oh wait....its down....(http://64.33.47.100/images/a1000anim.gif)

@BigBenAussie
Darn, you and your long posts, 255 characters max or the server goes down, it´s a windows thing you know :-D
Hehe, nah... too bad it´s down. Luckily, the sun is not so bright these days so maybe one could venture outside or something equally dangerous :-o
-
There's a sun? I can only remember seeing a gray, fluffy, gloomy sky :crazy:.
-
Its been down for nearly a year here due to some NTL trouble I cant be arsed dealing with, all other sites work fine
-
yes its nice that you dont visit that site :-P
-
Strange really as HopperJF aka eMike has been active a few times on aw.net according to the records.
-
@DaveP
Can you give us any more information on what's happened and what the ETA is for a fix? Thanks for the job you guys are doing on the server - at least there are other places like here to hang out while it's worked on :-D
-
-
@lempkee
ummm which place would that be?
Errrrm, Amiga.org :-? :-P
I might spend a bit more time over at AW.net now, but without A.org I'd definitely be suffering withdrawal symtoms by this point. Perhaps this should be Amiga Webmaster Appreciation Day :-D
-
Yeah, we got your Amiga fix right here.

Oh no, what have you done :boohoo: :insane:
Well, hopefully it will be online soon :-)
Meanwhile there is always this place :-)
-
this just wont doo no amigaworld.net to look at
ill loose too much sleep waiting for its return
-
The staff are working to bring the site up as soon as possible. Please be patient. There is no definite ETA, but I would imagine it'll be up in less than a week :-)
-
Argh! Nooo - I can't wait that long!!!
I've had to resort to dredging through old Google caches of posts and articles; a poor substitute, really :-)
-
as long as i can look at Kenny in his new amiga t-shirt, i'll be happy... :-D

@ _Steve_
Oh dear :-( Must be something quite serious for it to have been down this long.
Hope you get it fixed soon, good luck. :-)

@cecilia
:-o :laugh:
-
We have the last valid portal content running at the moment on a protected site ( so we can check it over ).
Just to let you know there is progress.

well, a thread (http://www.ann.lu/comments2.cgi?view=1107422947&category=web&start=101&118#message118) on ann.lu just got deleted (right before my eyes). it was the one announcing trouble with AW.
yesterday there seemed alot of bickering. and it just now it had about 5 pages before it went blewie!
why can't people stop this nonsense? :pissed:
-
Wow. I just read the last comments on that thread before deletion then !!
-
@cecilia
It's more then bickering. If you got the chance to read that whole thread, you would of seen the pure hatred between certain groupes of people. It's a festering sore that will not heal any time soon, if ever. :-(
-
Yes everybody should really let go of their egos. What good does it make? Makes me wonder if they are still in highschool. Bury the axe already.
-
I have a feeling that many of the people that post on ann.lu do it just for the purpose of trolling.. I doubt many of them care much of either Amiga or MorphOS/pegasos.. They just think it is fun to troll :-(

ok, i was being "diplomatic" :-D
and i think i missed the last page or so. doesn't matter, it's all stupidity.
sure, there are certainly people involved in this (or were involved) that i can honestly say i "hate". but i certainly am not going to waste my time talking about them.
they are dead to me. and i have too many things to do. i'm not wasting anymore of my life dealing with dickheads, thank you.
the best revenge is success. and the best way to be successful is to be creative. so that's my F U to all the people who deserve that.
"trolling" on a web site is utter idiocy and i wish these children would grow the F up, already.
everyone involved in this should be ashamed of themselves. really!
well, i'm going to met some friends of mine tonite. we'll do some talking and i'll bring my DVD of the Sopranos (which they have never seen) and i'm having a good time.
good nite!

Yesssss!
I came to the sopranos late, I watched all 3 1/2 seasons in one week, then it drove me nuts having to wait a whole week between episodes after that!
...and then a YEAR without ANY episodes ARG!

Amen to that Cecilia. That's the best advice I have heard on not only this sorry situation but most of life's insults in general. I have long been involved in a situation at work that has really gotten me down. I have kept my head down too long and let life pass me by, no more. It is time to move on and be successful and let that be my best revenge. :-D
But I might have a few other F U shots up my sleave before I am done. :lol:

cecilia, you misinterpreted my post dear. I was not validating that thread, I was just stating an observation after reading it. I never really followed the red/blue war, but I know now that a lot of ppl got hurt to the point that they can never forgive or forget. Their hatred, not mine, will go on & I'm just glad they take it to ANN & not here or AW. Don't shoot the messenger, I'm on your side. :-)
-
Hopefully it is back up soon. I miss reading all the good stories. :-)

Er...Um....Yeah, I just tried to log on and got a free-standing requestor asking me for my nickname and password. Anybody know anything about this??

Well, personally, I gave up with that site ages ago, I only visited the dark side for a brief moment when AW.net went down, as you can be sure that someone will have started a thread there, once I had assertained that the site was really down, and not just my ISP playing up (which does happen sometimes) I got outta there as fast as possible. I compare that place to hell, although there's probably a lot less flames in hell
Arrhhh, that's better, I'm in a much better, safer place now.
Anyway, is there any update as to what is happening, it must be quite serious for it to be taking so long, normal procedure would be to simply restore the system from a backup and be up and running again in a few hours. (or is this where someone says, "Backup, what's a backup"
-
You should be on irc, Paul.
We're waiting on DaveyD getting out of bed and turning the key !!
-
Hi Paul
OK, stupid question time:
How do I get on this IRC, I've only ever used it from the portal on AW.net, do I join from my browser, or do I need some software (you can tell I don't use IRC much

Manu, many people over in ann.lu (and a.o and aw.net) are trying to bury the axe... In each other. :-P :lol: :lol:
Seriously, ignore the flames. Sure, they won't go away but you'll sleep better at night.

I'm getting that authentication popup too, but my details don't cut it. I created an account the day before it went down, so it's not as though i've forgotten...
-
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHH :-(
I MISS AMIGAWORLD!

(http://www.amiga.org/uploads/smil402e47bbd203f.gif) I suspect the only the webmaster and his moderators have access right now, as they try to sort things out.

well, it took a while for MorphZone to get back up after their spam attack.
i'd give it at least a week, altho i'm just guessing. based on nothing much. :-P
just don't panic. i'm sure they are doing everything they can.

And it's back up :-D (http://www.amigaworld.net)

It's back up here :-D

Well, I will now. Wouldn't want the IFX queen upset with me. :-D

Is AW down? Sure for a while but the (and this) Amiga, Never!
I hope it's coming back too but I'm quite amused about this language (heh) when:
- There is a new Amiga
- And a new OS4
- And I own them both.
So it'll be.

amigaworld is back now:
