Power outage at hosts crashed the servers

[pete]

Last night a power cut at our hosting company caused sudden loss of power to our servers.

This cause problems on reboot which meant our programmer had to be brought in to fix things at the root of the machines.

All up now and apologies for the downtime.

... & now I can get a nice cup of something warm and go & fetch my daughter!

Now it seems our treasured moderator Bob has been toasted by the meltdown!


I'll try to find a backup of his account and try to restore -- otherwise Bob we'll get you up and running with a new account. (this happened to Brett too once)

I don't know Larry ,But from what I understand this man works alone and deal with this most of the time alone, Of course he has supporting people or personnel programers etc,
But it was 3:30 am I assume was about 1am ,I try t connect to Just the forum and was broken ,I send him and email ,he reply me 10 minutes after telling me he was actually working to fix the problem ,latter all went out ,sites forum etc .
he didn't sleep last night dealing with this (not just the forum ) to bring us simviation ,HJG, and my site back.

this is not the first time Pete work at night any day of the week for us

i never knew the servers were even offline. But that just goes to show how fast and dependable we have people like PETE working on things to get them back up and running, even if it means sacrificing his sleep and free time to give us this wonderful site.

Like everyone else here, I applaud you pete!  [smiley=tekst-toppie.gif] :exclamation


If there were a way that i could make more money at my job, i would not hesitate to throw a few large bills your way Pete to help out, as I am sure that others would do the same. 

THANK YOU!!!!!
