Am I losing it?!?!?!

[VelvetVisions]

I tried to get on the site around 10:30-11 pm (CT) last night and the site was gone, not just unavailable, it couldn't be found. I freaked a bit, went through all kinds of conspiracy theories in my head, and then decided to do some other things and go to bed. When I tried this morning and it was here, I figured there would be at least one thread in reference to this, but I found nothing.

I'm feeling a little like I'm in the Twilight Zone, it doesn't look like there are any posts between yesterday at a certain time and the wee early hours of this morning.

Was the site down or am I losing it? LOL

The site was down

 

[VelvetVisions]

How long was it down? It was more like the hosting company was down since the site couldn't even be found.

Velvet,
I was panicking too, when I couldn't get on! LOL Thank goodness it's up and running again!

Good question, it's one that I just asked myself.

dodgy server, dodgy tech staff, dodgy host... take your pick

I saw in another thread somewhere that the hosting computer actually got unplugged....hence our ECF taking a nap for the day.

I think that was a joke.....

I think that was a joke.....

Might have been - but there was a note from SJ in the login screen just now - they're switching servers, and experiencing issues with that...

So, mystery solved!

I almost tried to search for Smokey Joe's number lol.... I was panicking also and checked the URL at least 50 times.... and had people I know check it randomly also.

So, the mods forgot to refill the cart for the server and it nodded out?

gotta admit i got kinda tense when i couldnt get on it all day. plus i was on a eliquid quest and couldnt get advice, but i think i ended up with a good purchase, after the site came back, i saw great reviews for the site i bought some from.

 

[tbremer]

i checked for other e-cig forums and none of them were down and none had posts about this place being down or any of the suppliers websites said anything so i figured it was just a hosting/server issue. first thought (which sounds like im not alone on this) was some how the FDA pulled the plug lol

I spoke with SJ, and it was in fact a hosting issue. I believe they are currently in the process of transferring hosting servers. Everything should be fine now.

Being without it for a little while, shows how important this forum is to us!!

I too started feeling a bit lost, so jumped over to another forum I seldom visit. 'Tis gr8 to have it back.
