Regarding downtime

[Faltzer]

We are back up and running as of now, though it is uncertain if it is to stay like that for now. If the case of it is downtime, then rest assured, as we will be up one way or another. ;)

finally

[Smash Bro Z]

That's good to know.

[Mud Fish Pokémon Swampert]

Wow, then I came online at the right time.

[SamsterBoy]

To be perfectly honest....I'm getting sick and tired of those downtime things man.

Same here. The sad thing is that it's probably not going to go away.

I'll second (or third) SamsterBoy's notice about VGLan's multiple downtimes, Faltzer. To me (as well as my good pals Gold Torizo and Super Sonic), this kinda reminds me of when one of the Mega Man forums went down many times due to server or host issues.

But then again, i come to expect such things since i'm all too familiar with that issue, so i shouldn't be too surprised about it. All i'm hoping though is that you guys pay those bills if such downtime happens. Just be ready to pay 'em if such situation happens again.

[Faltzer]

This is a mistake, though! The bills were paid long ago, except I don't see why a hosting business run by soviets go into such detail for $5.00 lousy dollars.

Hmm! A mistake you say, eh? Well, i don't wanna doubt you there, man, but if this service is run by soviets as you say (unless it's a joke again) and they go into details for 5 lousy smackeroos (five bucks rather), then they need to verify that it doesn't have viruses or stuff like that.

I'm no expert on this sort of department (you are though, since you're the coder, Faltzer), but i'm just giving my thoughts, according to what you just said there.

stop blaming the bills.

not everything is caused by the "forgetful staff"

if there's nothing they can do, and nothing you can do, suck it up

if you're getting tired of it, then go away. if you dont want to go away, find away to fix it

It actually is the bills; they run on a shitty billing system that doesn't even check what's right or not. =/

[Eric B. (Shnoogums)]

Just as a suggestive thought: Isn't there a billing service that checks what is right or wrong? Or is such service non-existent?

I ain't leaving shit for something I already know.

No, all of them should. It was just "poorly built".

its not you guys paying late, which is always suggested.

its a shitty system. which you guys couldnt really foresee

I ain't leaving shit for something I already know.

about the bills? pretty vague. and if you already knew about it, why didnt you warn them?

[Eric B. (Shnoogums)]

No, all of them should. It was just "poorly built".

So, it depends on which billing service does its job right and which one is complete crap, right?

Hmm! With so many out on the internet, it's tough to know which one's most well fit for VGLan, eh?

[SamsterBoy]

about the bills? pretty vague. and if you already knew about it, why didnt you warn them?

I knew that it was about paying the bills.....I just never knew that it was the fact that the guys receiving the 5 dollar bill would be chaos. I was offered by I think either Faltz or BrandMan back in the day when I wanted to host my own site. They told me the information, every last detail, except this.

[matto insano]

there's been a lot of switching hosts/billing accounts

it'll work out in the end

we have o more lag

now its just no more downtime we're waiting on

[SamsterBoy]

POINTS MAN RETURNS!

These disasters are only happening after we sold, really. We did have a few problems back then, though the service here stinks now.

[somewhat]

It's good to know that the sever is back up again. :)

[Faltzer]

[V-202 Davva]

I'm just glad things are up and running again.^_^

[PKMN Trainer Red]

VGLan was down? I was busy all weekend and today. I had no idea.

[Gold Atrocity]

K. Although I agree with Eric and it does get annoying, you gotta deal with it. Retreat to other forums like I do. Or live life, or go play Brawl. Once it's down, you know it's gonna come back so no worries!

[Papero]

Now the staff has learn not to press that button again.

[BombDiggety]

The board is back? Yipee~
