Please excuse the disturbance

Come in! Have a margarita or root beer? How about some fresh trout? :)

Please excuse the disturbance

Post by XMEN Gambit »

Our site provider had an OS blowup on Sunday completely destroyed many of their sites. It also blew out the auto-restore stuff, so they are just restoring things on request. As you can see, I requested they restore our database and so we're up and running again. The rest of the site I restored myself, with a little effort. I apologize for the downtime. I'm certain we're missing some old files, but I'm not sure they're worth restoring.

So, be on the lookout for loose construction materials lying around and wear your hard-hat until the dust settles, please. :)

I apologize for the downtime.




(Privately, I think that we smell from all the trout-slapping and the server just couldn't take it anymore... ;) )

Erk.

I've discovered that some of my backup was really, really dated. As opposed to the other parts that were just really dated. :) I think it's time for a site do-over.

One such item is the roster. Go back and check some of the avs from ages past (ok, so three years ago).

We do have Megalan 2002 pics, though I lost the page pointing to them. I do NOT have the Megalan 2004 pics in website form, though I have the originals. Guess I've found something to do.

And, durn it, this past weekend would've been Megalan 2005 if only things had fallen into place. I had vacation scheduled for it, too, but couldn't manage to take the vacation with the Active Directory migration I'm doing at work.

I am glad the Xmen forums are back as well. I was starting to realize that there was a life away from the forums and I started to get scared. :cry:

I spend more time on this forum than any others that I visit on a daily basis.

Hmm, I thought there was only one of those comments. Gotta go find the rest, I guess.

The "foxy boxy mod" is a mod for PHPBB which is responsible for some of the formatting here, that's all. I just need to edit some templates and get rid of the comment.

There is a "/* foxy boxy mod */ " in the topic review as you post a reply, if that helps you at all.
