Glad we're still here and sorry about the downtime. We've had nothing but problems with our RAID controller that handles all our files. Last night it dropped the mirrored drives and disconnected them as faulty units. We never see two disks fail at the same time under the conditions we had. I've been back and forth with the data center on this and I think we're both at the point we need dig in further or risk losing data. I hate to do it but we may need to take the site offline to fix it. I'll keep you guys posted and we'll get this figured out.

Should be fixed, report any issues. Thank you.

If you log in every two days you get 50% less, so the perks are already built in. We can't really give download benefits based on posts, comments, or reactions because 98% of the time they aren't genuine / quality interactions. We end up getting posts and comments that say things like, "Posting" and that's it. People will do the absolute bare minimum to get what they want. I'm happy to listen if you have other suggestions. I'm sure they appreciate your suggestions, thank you. From our vantage point we're happy to let their hard work and dedication stand on its own merits without the need of site branding. Erik

Update on the thirdwire.com site. I did some digging on this and from what I can see from the outside looking in, this was likely unintentional. The AWS 53 forwarding was removed or deleted from TK's Amazon AWS account, so the domain isn't rendering and it's getting stuck in an AWS server not found page. I @TK_ThirdWire on X.com and we'll see if he responds. He likely doesn't even know the site is down if he's not checking it routinely. Either way we'll see what happens and update you as we know more.

@Nyghtfall With great appreciation for all you've done for the community, we wish you the absolute best in what's to come. You will be missed. From all of us at CA, Erik

Clarifying, so you don’t want a general discussion sub-forum in the KB?

Where was this? The only place it could have been posted in the KB is in General Discussions which is what that sub-forum is there for, or at least that's what I thought you wanted it there for. Let me know and I can append the permissions as necessary which will prevent this from happening again.

I need to dig into the promotion sysytem, it is a very low priority. However, I'm really hoping Grand Master Flash is a thing, for your sake. I'm not sure I could handle all that disappointment if it doesn't come true. Keep the vision alive! E

The writing is flowery and a little hard to understand but I think what you're asking for is our KB located here: https://combatace.com/forums/forum/349-strike-fighters-knowledge-base/

That's a good question only because debit card systems are different in various countries. I think they're pretty flexible but the only way to know is to try.

My understanding, as the current plan is set, is that they are moving entire cabinets which is preferred over a de-rack event. I'd have preferred that they provisioned new gear and let us (customers) move but it's not looking like that's going to happen. They've hired qualified movers but that as you know isn't saying much. I'm still waiting on some answers about who's insuring the move, who's ultimately responsible for loss, and if we can insure against loss. That said, we're in a good place for this. Over the years, more so lately, I've built a full offsite backup funnel which will allow us to rebuild from a total loss of gear and/or data. A tested funnel I will be stress testing between now and then, to make sure I've got everything I need. I'll have to find a couple test boxes to deploy on but I'll figure that out. Community wise, patience during the move is the only thing I can ask. I'm preparing ahead of time so we all know the plan and there are no surprises. E

The plan is definitely to return just letting everyone know that there's a move in our future and I can't do anything about it. I had hoped they were going to allow us to deploy duplicate equipment which would allow us a switch over that nobody will notice but they are going old-school with this move. The plans aren't inked yet so there may be changes but until there are the only thing I can do is prepare.
