Back Online

Bookmark and Share
We are back online. We encountered some bad errors over the past few days, php was having problems loading our addons along with some other bugs. We tried keeping the site online to avoid any downtime whilst we made some changes but as a result this caused more problems and in the end the inevitable happened and the site crashed.

We have reinstalled the webserver, restored the database and fixed the bugs that were causing error messages and time outs. Its been a long wait and stressful few days. I thank you all for our patience, we are officially back.

Normalcy Soon

The upstream provider has blocked our traffic; causing the down time. We have contacted them and things should return to normalcy soon.

A combination of dos attacks and complaints was the cause. There may be some content on the site which we may need to remove in order to accommodate the upstream providers -- much of which are dead links anyhow, we will appease them and resume normal operations very soon.

Bookmark and read the blog for further updates.

Update: We are back up and online again. Things have been sorted out with the upstream providers. We have taken extra measures to ensure this sort of thing doesn't happen again in the future. We apologize for the misery this must have caused our members however if anyone requires therapy we are online everyday on Windows Live Messenger feel free to add one of the admins.
