theacefes Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Hi everyone, Sorry about the downtime. The host got mad at us for exceeding our limit on the database. When I went through the database to sort things out, I discovered that our broken that has yet to be fixed wiki was the cause of this. Fear not though...we have plenty of space for the forums and site. This shouldn't happen again...hopefully. Link to comment
Shaitan Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Thanks for the work you put into it. Link to comment
Dakk Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 How very courteous of the host to shut the site down, instead of sending notice... I echo Shaitan though, your work is appreciated! Link to comment
KIrving Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 How very courteous of the host to shut the site down, instead of sending notice... I was thinking the same thing. Thank you for your efforts theacefes. It feels wrong when I can't get a G3 fix. Link to comment

Jarno Mikkola Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 What you did was OK, and you really shouldn't be sorry, "these things happenTM". But you might consider having a semipermanent second download link... yes, the IEGMC America doesn't get updated nowadays... so you can try to make Berelinde's link permanent, or take Solaufein's offer...(oh cheese, I lost the link already). How very courteous of the host to shut the site down, instead of sending notice... Well, taking the site down can be considered as a notice, too... Link to comment
devSin Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 So what are you actually going to do about the wiki? It's time to delete it, but where to store the articles and snippets that are there (code archives, like the fixpack pages, can get trashed)? Link to comment
Salk Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I still get the same error message if I type: http://www.gibberlings3.net/ Instead, coming in through specific pages (Forum, Downloads, ecc.) works fine. Link to comment

You may have an old version cached - try forcing a refresh. So what are you actually going to do about the wiki?

Dakk Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 @Salk: Most likely your ISP refreshing DNS slowly. Link to comment
