Hi again, Moonlightaholics! :wave:

Well, we went down again, and then came back up. :seesaw: We've received a VERY apologetic e-mail from the web host, saying they have several technicians working on the underlying problem with their servers. So if you can spare a good thought, send one to the technicians, so that they'll fix this annoying issue and we can go back to doing what we do best: loving Moonlight. :cloud9:

p.s. Of course it's Shelburne's fault! :rolling: :rolling: Send him back to Shelburnistan where he belongs! :mob:

Glad we are back up and functioning.

Damn shelburne. :grumble: You know he/she/it caused this problem.

Edited: to remove capital 'S' in shelburne bc I've decided that capitalizing the name gives it way too much importance.
A capital crime, perhaps? :whistle:

Hi Moonlightaholics,

I'm sure you are all as sick of this as we are... :witsend:

We were down for about an hour this afternoon (LA time), but seem to be back. We haven't heard from the web host yet, so I don't know if this is a temporary or a permanent fix... we'll keep everyone apprised here, and at the Motel if the board goes down again.

Fingers crossed that whatever the problem is, it's fixed for good this time! :fingerscrossed: :fingerscrossed: :fingerscrossed:

Hey folks!

We were down for about an hour this afternoon. These outages are getting really old for all of us. :witsend:

We really want to thank you for your continued patience. :ghug: :flowers: Hopefully the host will get these server issues ironed out before too long. :fingerscrossed:

Hi everyone,

Popping in because I got an update from the web host today. They found a hardware issue that seemed to be causing the board crashes, replaced the faulty unit, and have been monitoring it closely for several days. They think the issue is resolved! :clapping:

So thank you VERY much for your patience, and let's hope the board will be much more stable from now on! :fingerscrossed: :fingerscrossed: :fingerscrossed: :fingerscrossed:

Okay, I have to take back some bad thoughts about our web host...since a hardware problem could happen to anyone!

:cheer: :cheer: :cheer: and a little :fingerscrossed:

Navigating the board seems slow and sluggish lately. Anyone else think so?

Hi all,

I've put in a report with the web host. They are looking into it and hopefully they will be able to fix it fast. :fingerscrossed:

The web host has found the problem and fixed it. The issue had to do with a limit on the number of simultaneous connections to the database, and they raised the limit so it should not happen again.
