Back In The Saddle Again…
We’re still trying to figure out what exactly caused all the down time today, but we’re finally back up to speed again–hopefully. Let us know if you see anything that looks out of place. Apparently we received an influx of hits, most likely from spammers, that caused our database to choke and take everything down with it. When our host was able to get everything running again, a lot of configuration information had gone missing and caused a few more hours of downtime before we finally figured out what was going on. Suffice it to say, if I had any hair, it would be gone. I hope y’all didn’t miss us too much.
