Welcome to our new temporary location (REVISED MARCH 28)
« on: March 13, 2009, 09:05:03 PM »
Same server, new URL.  ISAmedia.org is a thing of the past, apparently.  Everything's kinda messed up right now.

Really, really sorry about not being able to get a message out until the site came back up.  I'm going to see what I can do to improve things for the future.

UPDATE MARCH 28: We are probably about to jump servers again as everything is moved to more permanent hosting.  I'll send out another mass mail unless this redirects there.

Sweetness. Although it was kinda fun checking at various parts of the day and guessing if the error message would be "403 Forbidden" or "Back in a few hours!"... Oh well, I guess I can let that slide. (-:

I'm still trying to figure out why it said "Back in a few hours" because I never told it to and my other site hosted on another subdomain would just give me a database error.

Cool, time to update my favorites with "Lemmings Forum 6" :P

Haha.

Our URLs have as much trouble staying put as Lemmings do.

I noticed the change to the Isamedia homepage when this forum disappeared. It's an unfortunate coincidence that Mindless had server problems too - last time this site went down, we had a temporary forum at least.

If there's downtime, try contacting me on AIM or MSN (but not AIM right now because for some reason it refuses to connect).  A few people did and I would have let them know what's going on so they could maybe spread the word, but they were never online when I was available to return their messages.

YAYZ!
What about your other site, Mr.K? I think the Monochrome Nightmares site might be just a bit more important than this one...

I don't play favorites, bro.

It just happens that this one is working again before the other.

Wait, does that mean there aren't any "major changes" on the way for the site? (Besides the fact that it's online, of course :P)

Nope.  At least I wasn't planning on any yet.

It seems it was probably just the system being confused.

I could have put up a temporary forum again this time (afaik, my latest downtime was ~3 days), but judging from the activity level on that forum last time, I didn't think it would be worthwhile.

Maybe it's time to move to my forum: http://tle.vaarties.nl -> forum in the left menu.

And if you really really need more screen space, go to: http://tle.vaarties.nl/smf/index.php. But then you'll miss the nice integration with the rest of my website.
