[b][color=red]I just can’t seem to find a decent host![/color][/b] This one only took a week to totally piss me off! The server went down and put up a stupid [i]’user over bandwidth limit’ [/i]page to stop users from accessing the site. The first I heard of it was when FX kindly telephoned me.
[b]I don’t know what’s happened yet. I’ll report their explanation here as soon as I know.[/b]
You guys must be crossing your fingers every time you visit the site [i](I know I am!)[/i]…i was so sorry to be the harbinger of bad news on your peaceful sunday, but it was good to talk to you guys ;)…here’s keeping the fingers crossed that we get a few weeks of peace and quiet, especially after all the hard work you and katey have put in already…
Just recieved this from the ISP. Not a full explanation by any means, but I guess it’s a start.
[quote]… there was a server malfunction that was fixed early today. During spring break, we did not have enough staff available, which we obviously know now, and when the problem aroused, we were unable to fix it immediatly. We will try to prevent this from happening again, sorry about it.[/quote]
[quote=”pet”]Could this have something to do with me trying to upload my 900GB 791 remix? 😳

Lol and here I thought Saddy was doubling as porn site in the off hours.
Poor Sad. Major, moajor headache for you and New Kate. 🙁
I was like eekkkk! when I saw it. And I have to admit, that was the first time I had ever seen a bandwidth error on your site… it was like wtf??!?
Hope it stays fixed.
As noticed by many of our visitors & clients, customers on the server recieved a 4 day downtime. We are sorry for the huge inconvenience this may have provided you however we have fixed the problem. For thoes of you wondering what it was, the /usr portion of the server filled up which caused a lot of the system services to freeze. It made CPanel, MySQL, etc. unaccessable.
Once again, we are very sorry for the downtime. If we can better assist you at all, please feel free to drop me an e-mail at ted@doublehost.net, or you can e-mail Kym at kym@doublehost.net.

Dear Sadgeezer,
As requested, an explanation was provided on the forums via multiple threads explaining what has happened and the solution.
In summary, the daily backups we made for every site to increase their security in the event that they lost their files, quickly ran amok on the server which your website sadgeezer.com and 3 other websites share. Aproximately 4 websites experienced technical difficulties over the weekend resulting in the bandwidth skyrocket as the entire system became confused.
Server technicians were finally able to isolate the problem and resolve it. All stats should be back to normal and further occurances of this occuring should not happen again. I apologize on behalf of Double Host for what has occured and thank you for your patience and support you showed during the weekend downtime.
Should you have any further questions, please feel free to ….

It’s funny you should say that Pet! I was thinking of a [color=green][b]SadGeezers Guide to erotic Sci Fi Fan Images[/b][/color]!
But I guess the demad and strain on the server and bandwidth would be far too high! 😉

Also, I know at least one actress that I personally spoke with [url=http://www.flamegrape.com/xev/](who shall go namless)[/url] who was really “freaked out” and bothered by “erotic fan images” on the internet.
😯All the more reason to do it! 🙂

Is that Latin? Kindly translate 😆
btw (but also wtf) – if no one has voted in some of the polls, that might be because they’re also experiencing a ‘general error’ when trying to access the thread.
Well guess it’s one way of weeding out the slightly sadgeezers from the truely sadgeezers who’ll check back every so often to see if the site’s back up 8)
[i]Don’t be a stranger, sadgeezer.com, you stay up where we can see ya[/i]
