IRC connection issues?


Recommended Posts

I can't seem to connect to Neowin IRC using mibbit because of a registration timeout. Any idea what's going on?

i think neowin got either hacked or had to rely on an old server backup - i have my old avatar and a posting i did this morning is not there anymore which is highly annoying as i gave there package-details i don't know anymore so when back home this evening i have to gonna look for it again  :crazy:

 

irc not working either.

i first suspect it was the proxy of my university network, but now as i am connected through my mobile phone - same issues prevail.

We've not been hacked, we've just lost our 'normal' database server, and two of the front end servers due to a hardware issue. Posts that have disappeared due to this will re-appear once it's back online, so nothing is lost. I quickly switched over to the 'new' servers before heading to work, I'll get IRC switched over shortly, bear with it.
