    Exclamation OK...what happened?

    Oh boy. Now what little hair I have has gone.

    A couple of you may have noticed that your favorite Ravens' site has been down for the past 48 hours :)

    It is a long IT story and was completely beyond our control. Our host had a very serious server failure. This coupled with some backup server issues prevented the site (and all of their sites) from being 'live'. The failure had nothing to do with this site.

    This should not happen again and steps has been taken to guard against it.

    The fact that this happened around MNF was particularly painfull and I had to go to Della Rose's instead and pound a few Guinnesses!

    I offer my apologies to you all and welcome you all back. Please hang in there while they iron out the last few wrinkles.

    This is why I am not in IT anymore :)

    I see we lost what few posts we had Monday, which isn't a big deal but in case you had a gem up you are wondering about, there you go.

    Re: OK...what happened?

    yea, I too was wondering what the Hell was going on?!?! All the posts from earlier in the week seem to be gone; no big loss.





  5. Re: OK...what happened?

    Actually It couldnt have happened at a better time.......this board didnt have nearly the amount of "whats wrong with this team" or "wasteless bickering" threads about the game as the "other" board did. It was all cool and calm here. haha

    I was worried another fine message board had gone down in flames. Maybe it is better to have 48hrs to compose yourself, before you compose your "Sky is falling" messages. Let's just beat the Panthers.

    Re: OK...what happened?

    I see that the Pick 5 results I posted Monday morning are gone.
    That's fine...there were a few late additions to the thread that I didn't catch the first time around. If someone makes picks after 1:00 on Sunday, chances are I'll miss it.

    I'll post the results again tonight.

    Re: OK...what happened?

    damn, I didn't notice the "dissapearing posts" thing till now. I had about 280+ posts after Monday, now I'm back to 250+.

    I really appreciate your patience and we have taken what we believe are the appropriate measures to ensure this doesn't happen again.

    We're back up and committed to being better than ever.

    Thanks again.

    Re: OK...what happened?

    That's cool, at first I thought I was being blocked from the site here at work, then when I got home and couldn't get it, I was wondering if the site got infiltrated by some Steeler hacker.

    Glad to see it back up and running!
