Is Amigaworld.net down?

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

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.

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...

I suspect the only the webmaster and his moderators have access right now, as they try to sort things out.

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. :-)

no no, i wasn't thinking of YOU in any of this "hate". i was just responding to the message.

honestly, i have no problem with you. sleep easy  :-D

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"

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

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.
