SITE OUTAGE

Post: # 2022253Post n1ck »

Hi all

By now most of you will be aware the site has been down for a number of days.

The software that the platform was built on recently (a few months ago) went through a major automatic upgrade. Having had a number of patches and fixes made to the infrastructure of the site over a long period of time this update had a major impact on a bunch of those patches.

I have been working with the hosting service and a developer to a) resolve this issue, and b) understand how we can patch the rest of the issues until we are able to rebuild the site properly.

Please keep an eye on it over the next few hours/days and please let me know if you see or find anythning funky.

Thanks
Nick

Well done and thanks

Have taken the joint for granted

And I read this morning again about how forums are passé etc etc and how we had to live via Facebook Groups etc since about a decade ago

May we survive a little longer

Thank you
🙏


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

Thanks, good stuff. I was worried I'd have to start chatting to the bigfooty crew, no fun there. Or the reddit crew, no people there!
