01/03/09 Down?
« on: January 03, 2009, 10:45:54 AM »
Is .net down for anyone else
Normally I find notices here or get emails but not this time.
Is it my ISP?

Yes. Does not even acknowledge that the site exists.

No, it's not just you.

I figured this is Calguns Upgrade phase 18 of 3 with the regularity it goes down.

I'm glad to hear it's only the server.

I thought you all had heard from my wife and decided to cut me off... ::)

Excellent choice of hosts for the site. I guess you get what you pay for, eh?

Id have to say its a good thing that youre not relying on your server to maintain a site that is supposed to generate revenue ... youd go broke and out of buisness pretty dang quick.
Tell your mom to stop callin.

With new servers and new tech comes growing pains.

Actually the only major outage since the last upgrade, a couple of days ago, was not a sever issue but a DOS attack.

On the other hand, given how little we charge for advertising when you look at our traffic it's obviously not a business. Or I suck as a businessman. ;)

Hah... You only have to make as much money as you want to.

Everyone that is ready to cry about gougers will never cry that someone charge too little.  ;)

Don't be too surprised about that, when a dealer has fair prices and good services I obviously don't get them to raise the prices, but I do try to bring in some doughnuts or pizza for the staff, maybe buy the occasional higer priced item to help out, ect. 

And just how much is a banner ad on .net?  If reasonable I'd so maybe buy one just saying GOUGERS AND THEIR BUDDIES SUCK!  ;D :D ;D :D ;D :D ;D
