Darlene Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I want to apologize to everyone for MrsS being down for 12 hours... I got a call at 2am from the server people letting me know that they had pulled the message board down due to there being a problem with us overloading their server... I just got off the phone with the server people and have found out that it wasn't the message board that was causing the problem, but the chat program. Needless to say, I'm very upset they pulled the message board down when all they had to do is disable the chat program...which is what they ended up doing after I got done talking to him. Anyway, I'm going to get in touch with our webmaster MountainMommy and ask her to please look into this, but for the time being, the chat program does not work. Never a dull moment around here.

WormGuy Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Darlene, I have seen more people in chat than there was when it happened. Don't make sense to me. John Link to comment

Darlene Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 John, I think there must be an error somewhere in the chat script that is tilting the server into overload... I'll try to get with MM today and ask her to look at it. Link to comment
Crazy4Canning Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Thanks for this, Darlene! I was chatting and then suddenly, everything was shut down. I didn't know if I should have called you or westie....I seriously thought it was me, but after updating my browser and re-booting an insane number of times, it was the site. BTW, I tried sending an email to the webmaster from the main page, but it bounced several times. If that isn't a current e-mail, do have MM update that as well. Hugs... Link to comment
Stephanie Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 And to keep the record clear...pay attention Louis.... I WAS NOT in the chat room when it crashed or whatever it did. Link to comment
MomM Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I tried to send an email to the webmaster, and it also came back. I was seriously going into withdrawl. Link to comment
CrabGrassAcres Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 It could have been a denial of service attack. HT went down at the exact same time and was down for several hours. Link to comment
WormGuy Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Yep it's the gooberment. John Link to comment
westbrook Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Stephanie... Louis was in chat though! ROFL!!! Link to comment
Trip Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Well I think it's because Wormy, Louis and I were all in there at the same time, I think it's a sexual discrimination thing... It's WAR!! un'ns again themun's Link to comment
Stephanie Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Louis and Trip and WormGuy!!! Oh My!! Darlene, you're going to have to limit one caveman in the chat room at a time! Link to comment
serendipity Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 lol it was quite a shocker when it went down... and Stephanie really truly wasn't it there! lol But Trip, WG and Louis really were keeping things hopping.... Tried and tried to get back in and started panicking when I couldn't even get onto Mrs. S. Withdrawal set in mighty fast! lol Link to comment
Cecilia Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Glad it wasn't my computer. Weird, but glad things are cool. I was not happy with it down. I needed my MrsS fix last night after the Dodgers lost. WAHH! BAD DODGERS! Link to comment
HSmom Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I kept getting errors that said I was "Forbidden". Link to comment
Snowmom Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I kept getting that one too, HSmom. I sure am glad it is back up and running nicely. I even had an e-mail from mom11 about it, so she should be able to get in when she can get back on line. Just really thought to many people were trying to get on here at one time. I saw all the pictures and am waiting for more. I love your dog Trip. Now, I probably should get out of here and get something done around here. Link to comment

Crazy4Canning Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Yes, I was 'forbidden' too. Made me think..OH NO...OH NO OH NO, what did I DO?!?! Oh come on...we do need the men...Like Trip, Wormie...and the others. Who else would eat my portion of sausage and pork loin?!?! Link to comment
Vic303 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 There's always gabbly.com for chat usage. It's not a perfect solution, but it does work. I've used it with another S&P group in the past. That way we dont' risk the MrsS server. Link to comment
OldMaineBear Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I got the Doesn't Exist message. I wrote Buttercup and got her all wound up. Thought I'd get Vic riled too so I wrote her. I thought the party got carried away and they rounded you all up and shut everything down. Good Old Down Home Georgia Rumble. Glad to have all back and none the worse for wear. Link to comment
Buttercup Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Yes it was quite disturbing for me as well... Link to comment
Trip Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Well...Westy freaked out, was typing as fast as her fingers would go...muttering things in a strange tongue...wild look in her eyes.. when the thin line of drool started running down her chin I closed the pc and went to watch tv with Jim...women, so [censored] emotional...

mi_familia Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Yep, I got the Forbidden message too and thought I was bad and had been banished! I feel better now! Link to comment
RusticOkie Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I'm glad its back up and running. I got the doesn't exist message and a couple other "like minded" sites were down too so I had no idea what was going on! Link to comment
