Bern Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 1. We have just recovered from an outage at our host. Their data-center in the US had a major hardware failure causing the network to be unresponsive.2. The forum is down for 20 hours+ since 29/12/2012 early afternoon and we're really sorry for it. We've only managed to access our server and bring it back up this morning after they fixed the network issue.3. There is still some problem with the system date showing incorrectly. They are aware of it and will be rectifying it shortly.Other than that, the forum remains accessible for use. Our sincere apologies for the unexpected downtime. Have a great weekend!

Bern Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Die lah! Always got failure! Not the first time.Change web host better.I organized an event, so swaay, kenna this web failure.Sorry for the inconvenience you've faced.1. Our old host was getting slower and due to growing readership we were aware of the occasional difficulties in accessing the forum (trust me, optimizing with limited hardware resources is not fun )2. As we are not a commercial site with a lot of $, we had to hold off upgrading the server until recently when we accumulated some $ via advertisements.We've since migrated on 21/12/2012 to a new hosting site with much advanced hardware. Read more: http://www.blowingwi...showtopic=375043. On our new hosting site, we have checked their track records and outages like this are not common. But shit happens. We now hope they resolve the current issue with our system time soon though, and fulfill what the upgrade was supposed to do: to provide a faster browsing experience for everyone here.
