Sorry for the outage

(1/4) > >>

Dr. Richard Grossman:
Hi everybody,

My web host upgraded the server through which this message board runs, and the message board software version was not compatible with the new server.  Hence the outage.  While I have gotten things back up and running by painstakingly updating the software, obviously the "fit" between the message board "theme"/design and the new software is not great.  I am debating whether to choose a new "theme" that will better match the software--it would create an all new look, and possibly a learning curve for regular users.  I also worry that the new theme would somehow change the data base in a way that couldn't be corrected--highly unlikely since the data base is backed up, but still, "one never knows, do one" (Fats Waller!)  Anyway, thanks for hanging in there, and if one day the message board looks very different, the reason will be my dissatisfaction with the current "fit."

All thoughts welcome!

Richard

Meh:
:)   Yeah I thought something was different (Welcome, %1$s. Please login or register.)

It's all good as long as it's still here.

Glad everything's back up and thank you for doing all that work, Dr G :).  I'm not at all technically minded, as long as I can read stuff and type things I'm happy so anything that works is good in my book :)

Dear Dr. G,
THANK YOU for keeping this board ALIVE!!!!!!

Dr. Richard Grossman:
Thanks Garbanzo, Tupp, and ann3.  A couple weeks ago, someone hacked into my voicelessness e-mail address and started sending e-mails from me all over the world.  And today the voicelessness site was closed down because someone was trying to hack their way into it with "port scan activity" (for the technically minded).  On top of this are the usual technical problems when, for example as happened here, servers are upgraded and old software no longer works.  But I try to keep the site going because it is such an important part of my life--and I know it is just as important to others as well.  Such is the nature of love in a technological world.

Richard
