Sorry Folks about the board being down today.

The whole site went down at around 10:30 AM. When it came back up around 20 minutes later, the board didn't work. I called host support to report the problem. They tried to fix it while I was on the phone with them. They couldn't fix it so they escalated the call and promised to fix it within 12 hours. I had to leave for work at 11 AM and just got hour a few minutes ago. The problem was STILL not fixed. I ended up fixing it myself in less than 10 minutes.

Doug, you are T - H - E Man.

I was getting worried that the Coast Gaurd had nabbed you in some sort of to-much-beer-at-the-river/lake-this-better-not-be-an-event sting. :flamed

A dog doesn't care if you're rich or poor, educated or illiterate, clever or dull. Give him your heart and he will give you his.

Which reminds me, maybe I have to change the name of Trips and Events forum to "Trips, Parties, and Events" since OP6 was not an event, but a party. :jumpie

You do good work, Doug. Â :good

Thank god for swarf.net. It's a message board for message board administrators. I did a search for the f'ed up database table and a thread popped up with a fix in it. The whole process took less than 10 minutes, but the hosting company couldn't do it in under 11 hours.

Sometimes if ya want something done right, ya just gotta do it yourself right Doug? :good

I'm glad HD Forums is back up. I had to post over at HB while it was down and you KNOW that posting at HB Forums is never anything nice. As usual and like always, it only took about 5 minutes of posting at HB for somebody to piss me off :laugh

From now on, if this board goes down, I'll just step away from the computer and find something else to do :good

KH called me as usual to inform me just in case I didn't know. Â I appreciate that very much, because sometimes I don't know about it. Â One or two times I had him log in as me and I talked him through the fix. :good

I need to find a job with internet access.

That way, it would have only been down a short time.
