Title: Apologies for the issues earlier
Post by: Thom @ ICE on December 09, 2015, 11:10:22 AM: We had a small issue that temporarily shut down the domain, but we believe it to be corrected. Thanks for your patience.

Post by: Thom @ ICE on December 10, 2015, 07:57:46 AM: As of 11pm eastern (New York time) the issue was marked as resolved. As I can't be on line 24 hours a day - if you encounter an issue accessing the domain in the future, feel free to send me an email at Thom-ice@hotmail.com and I'll address the issue as soon as possible.

Post by: egdcltd on December 10, 2015, 08:15:24 AM: Okay, will do. I would reckon I had the issue at around 5-6AM Eastern.

Post by: Thom @ ICE on December 10, 2015, 09:04:21 AM: That may have just been normal temporary server downtime instead of the major issue from yesterday - but please keep me advised. Thanks!

Post by: Thom @ ICE on December 10, 2015, 12:44:11 PM: Nothing was done to the database and my file still shows PM's back to 2010 (which was when I did a major purge on them). I will see if there was a signficant impact to the file, but it is unlikely as the data was restored without update.

Post by: craggles on December 10, 2015, 01:00:22 PM: Thanks - there was an important discussion I was having with someone and I couldn't remember who it was (because my memory is crap) so I was panicking but I notice that all my sent messages are there so I still have half the conversation (along with the 'quote' of the original messages) so the panicking is over. :)

Post by: pastaav on December 10, 2015, 01:56:48 PM: I experience random "fail to see the forum and instead land on link page belonging to host company" when I surf the forum. Most annoyingly it happened when tried to post my reply on a thread.

Post by: jdale on December 10, 2015, 07:29:53 PM: Saw it briefly again ~5 PM Eastern time today.

Post by: craggles on December 10, 2015, 07:45:36 PM: Ok, now I feel very silly! The newest PM I had was on page 2 - I didn't notice the 'pages 1 [2]' under that message. My PM's are still intact but my self esteem isn't. :o

Very silly indeed!!!!! :bang:

Post by: Thom @ ICE on December 10, 2015, 09:27:58 PM: Glad to hear it was only user error...

I'll investigate to see if there is any issue going on that may be resulting in domain drops.

Post by: pastaav on December 11, 2015, 01:00:07 AM: Lots of more trouble connecting to the ironcrown site yesterday. It seemed like the DNS entry for Ironcrown kept changing back and forward.
