As much traffic that is generated on the "Club" site when the "World" site goes down, I thought it was only appropriate that the "Club" site outage was properly announced...

OK, Here I am (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) up (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) for no good reason. I participate in both of the sites, and both of these are invaluable. But for all the comments made over there about the outage here a week or so ago, I thought it was a bit funny.

That's all. Please go about your business.

I think Brad and Britain are the only tech support and if Brad isn't around and Britain can't handle it remotely, well... You get the picture. Brad does have a mirrored server so it shouldn't happen but if no ones home who is going to fix it?

I dunno, but I thought I read something from him saying that a well run site like what he has should never go down. I too think it is kind of funny that after he said that it is now down. I wish no ill on him as I think he is a great guy but a little humility goes a long way.

Yeah (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) it happens , but they were cordial enough to allow the World on thier board , why shouldn't we return the same ?? Perhaps there is some on here that may help them get back up and running again ?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif)

You haven't been around real long... I'm fairly certain that the club site did not "allow the World on thier board". On the flip side, the folks that frequent the 914club site are more than welcome here.

I think you're confusing 'the "Club" site' with Narp or Pelican, both of which allowed a re-direct of the world site during our prolonged outage last week.

Feel free to PM me if you'd like clarification because it's time to close this thread.

A member PM'd me to let me know that he thinks the comments I made in my last reply and then closing this thread are/was... inappropriate (to say the least, I won't expound further). I completely disagree. In addition, he thinks it makes the admin team look bad. I disagree on that point also, but I'll open the thread back up.

Have fun. I'm loggin out...

I was goofin around when I opened this thread. Never thought it would come to this. My apologies to any and all that got their feelers bent as a result...

Gint; Thanks for trying to minimize any ill feelings. Admins are asked to keep an eye on things but are never appreciated. My thanks to all.

I have to agree with whoever said that Gint. Please take no offense but this thread is not an us vs them thread. It was just an observation that Eric made. Both he and I go there as well as here and like most of the people at each place. When the World went down comments were made at club that makes this situation humorous. That's all (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Oh Lord... here we go. :shakinghead:

Seriously - there are lots of 914 hangouts on the internet to choose from. Find one (or more) that makes you happy.

You're always welcome here. 'nuff said. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
