We’re Back…

… after almost 24 hours downtime. Thanks for waiting.

No MPAA or RIAA
No DDOS

Hardware troubles caused the downtime, normally not that big of a problem if the people at Softlayer weren’t that incompetent. It took them 12 hours to find out that the motherboard died, and another 12 to reinstall the OS. At the time of writing we still don’t have our data back. So, we took our backups and moved out of there, let’s hope everything holds up.

Forums are down for now, will be fixed within 24 hours

We will move to a better and more stable server in a few hours, without any significant downtime hopefully

update: The “you can click but you can’t hide” image was supposed to be a joke. I linked it to the new IP. 50 worrying emails and an hour later I took it down.
