Gism0 Posted April 11, 2002 Share Posted April 11, 2002 arg ive not been able to get here for most of the day! i did manage to get to the server info page a while ago, and the load averages were way up in the 50s !! (OMG !!) they are still around 15-20 now.. all seems to work now, although a little slow.. anyone know what was up? some sort of attack? revenge of idlenews? who knows !

Tingle Posted April 11, 2002 Share Posted April 11, 2002 The server was reebooted earlier for some reason a while ago, ever since it has been slow, and works sometimes at the moment, not sure whats going on, but hosttyme have been working on it for the past couple of hours to get it sorted, hopefully should be back right asap the server load is extremly high, which is probably why the site is going slow, dont know whats up though i guess we will all be updated soon (i hope) tingle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
