Slight issue with the pages today?

Jeewhizz · Aug 31, 2006

main ND site has been v slow all day.

Sites aren't loading though, and visitor stats are down

NameDriver · Aug 31, 2006

Hi guys,

One of our servers has decided to explode today, so the main site and URL forwarded domains are currently not working. Our server guys are working on this at the moment to get things back up again asap.
We'll make sure that this doesn't affect your parking earnings for the hour or sos downtime today.
Sorry for the inconvenience, things should be fine very shortly.

seems to be fixed now

retired_member16 · Aug 31, 2006

Certainly not fixed here.

NameDriver · Aug 31, 2006

Hi Everyone,

We now have two new servers running which, I believe, have Lord of the Rings-related names. Everything is looking very snappy on my end. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience and we will make sure that today's earnings are as good as yesterday for you, knowing that Wendesday is generally a stronger day than Thursday.
If anybody has any individual queries, feel free to PM or email me and I'd be happy to help you out.

Ed

No worries. I can imagine miserable feeling. I felt that way too. Things looking nice now though.

Morning everyone.

It seems no amount of failsafes is a large enough amount of failsafes. Our parking has been down for a while this morning. We're doing all we can to get it fixed.

Morning ED,

Thanks for letting us know

I'd like to do more than letting you know... The homepage is up and zippy again, pages still not resolving. At least for people with European traffic, it is a very low traffic time of day, but it's scant consolation.

ditto - appreciate the warning

NameDriver · Sep 22, 2006

Sorry, just setting up my new internet, so offline for a bit. Everything's up and working fine now. It was down for a time where most people are offline in Europe, so you guys shouldn't see much of a downturn, but we will also ensure that no earnings were lost for that time and compensate accordingly.
