Most of everything is done, has been. I'm waiting on a solution for our clustering software to bring our new file server online. For some reason the software is saying I have too many devices configured on the node or it's outside of my license. Neither of which is the case but when I enable the file server it takes all the other machines offline. So I'm sitting in the developer's queue waiting on a solution. The last update I had this afternoon at 2:41PM was that their designers were reviewing my settings (**IT'S MY FAULT, GET IT?**) to determine why the error is being thrown and why we can't bring the box online. Like you guys I'm frustrated too. They've essentially denied us business and it's costing us money, ironically the same money that pays for all this. So yeah I'm pissed, but there's nothing much I can do until a solution has been remedied. I definitely know I'm not going through another week and half of sleepless nights again for a long time. This has been maddening and to be honest, shit like this shouldn't happen in today's technological age. I can have Google maps in my eye wear but plugging in four boxes to run as one ohhh nooo that's like swimming to the moon. I'm with you, things will change. If I could undue the past I would but I can't, it's forward or no where. Anyone with a subscription plan, your accounts have all been granted an additional month of use regardless of when you were set to expire, had expired, or started the subscription. It's the only fair thing to do. Erik

Huh? I know I Know, nobody wants this done more than I do. I can't tell you how many emails an hour I get about this. I swear nobody reads the boards. Regardless until support comes back on Monday for our software we're dead in the water on the downloads. I expect this to have movement relatively soon. Thanks for the patience. Erik

Altimeter. Pilot Error. One look at all those red VASI lights should have been clue #1. Someone stopped flying the aircraft and was just along for the ride. Tragedy.

I do PM me for further instructions. Same as above.

Only two weeks and then??? If you're holding back some alien invasion plans I'm going to be sooo pissed. I'll let you know. As of now I'm still working on them, there's 1/2 a terabyte of them.

Column5 will be making updates to his site to fix the remaining problems. Currently the site is up and running so stand bye for further updates from him. Thank you.

Do you guys realize if you'd stop posting all over the place I wouldn't have to read 20 new posts about something I already know, spending hours getting distracted and forgetting what I was doing. Going to fill my drink and then suddenly remembering oh yeah I was working on the downloads. But when I refresh the site I see I have more notifications and PMs so I go take care of those and I forget what I was doing. So I think to myself gee I'm hungry and I go make me a sandwich, eat the sandwich and with a full belly fall asleep. Wake up with drool running down my cheek and my neck cocked backwards and sideways over the back of my chair thinking wow what the heck was I doing only to refresh the site and see I have more notifications which have to wait because I need a bathroom break. So I go read the paper for 20 minutes and come back look at my empty glass and refill it. Remembering I had a bunch of notifications to check I look at those and get side tracked on something else like my email where there are a bunch of people either telling me things I already know or demanding answers about something I can't give them because the vicious circle just keeps repeating itself. So .... the moral to the story is. Don't feed the bears.

The files are still being moved. It will be up as soon as it's ready. Thanks.

it's spelled <CTRL>+C and <CTRL>+V.

I counted one-to-many apostrophes in your post, does that count?

Absolutely! I will make sure everyone is well taken care of when this is done, even if your subscription has expired. We need the subscriptions to pay for the place but in no way are we crooks. To be honest I'd feel the same way, right is right so fix it. I'm with you 100%. Let me get everything finished up and I'll make those adjustments. If anyone has any questions about subscriptions please don't hesitate to PM me directly. I'm always happy to help. Erik

Yes I'm aware. I'm peddling as fast as I can. I forgot something back at the office. No but really I'm sorry for the downtime I got a wild hair up my ass and decided if I was going to rebuild everything I might as well do it on new equipment, so I spent all my money on new ultra nice hardware, hence the reason I'm riding my bike. Say hello to Marilyn, Bob and Sylvester which are clustering up with Files to make this one scary place. I'm expecting this will be last big interruption and that this should take care of all our needs well into 2016. Now I just have to figure out how to pay for it. As you've seen I've been getting pieces of the puzzle together and turning them on as they're ready. We had some time where things didn't resolve because the boxes were off as the actual switch happened on our port, then there was some initial build time and I had some static stuff up which was the "Forum Offline" you saw. The "Server Busy" was the high load caused from cross verifying file structures. I couldn't have you guys writing files when I was trying to compare them, make sense? That was pretty much Sat and Sun while I got the rest of the gear in place. There is still some work that needs to be done here and there, like the files, yes they are important and I'm working on it but there are many other sites CombatACE runs and they need to be online as well, so I'm dividing my attention to get the critical stuff knocked out on each site, then the important stuff, and finally the small stuff. So bare with me, I knew last week this was going to be a scary mess and here we are almost all of it behind us. Enjoy the new gear and see if 130 cores of processing power and a case of memory makes any difference on your experience. ~ Just the dude who mops the floors.

I don't know what you guys are talking about? Has the website been down?

I agree. I will also add that "apparently" information was removed via thumb drive and then transferred to this nefarious laptop, so I've read. Even a thumb drive being used is questionable, the screening, random searches, and various other entry and exit procedures I will only refer to as "the procedure" into and out of Crypto City make that extremely risky if not almost impossible. Regardless it appears to have happened, the root of which will be corrected while young Mr. Snowden lives out his miserable existence, though short I'm sure it will be, in the not so bad summer months abroad. Good luck Ed it was nice knowing you, dumbass.

If he's lucky.

Yes I have never understood that reasoning either. You're trying to catch your flight and you have a million things on your mind then you hit the TSA screening area. Bubba the big burly guy with a wand decides he wants to pat you down. Now you've some strange guy's hands on your junk and your problems went from a million to at least a million and 10. However if they'd allow the young attractive working her way through college girl feel around your inside seam on your trousers your problems immediately drop to just 1 thing. I say they have this all wrong. Plus I'd have an excuse, but honey those are the rules, oh crap I left my watch in the car, BRB.

That happened to my porn once.

I'm with you on that. Kentucky Bourbon is some of the best there is. I think I hear a bottle calling me now. I have some Parker's Heritage that's about 30 years old that is the best I've had but I'm sure there's better.

Your toilet isn't connected to the internet by chance?

Online bride banners.

You wanna know something even funnier than the banners? Interesting huh?

It's no secret I still have some issues left to handle. The recent changes have affected a lot and I'm working through them one at a time. Thank you for reporting this. As mentioned there may be other alternatives however if what you need is only there, it will be back online and working properly as soon as possible.

Don't be to hard on yourself. Many of us have been there, including the time I ran over a special bike. They learn, they grow, they adapt. It's all part of the cycle in preparation for the day someone breaks her heart. Your a great dad you're in her life and you care, everything else is forgivable. Besides there was a day not too long that your accident fed the family and fluffy was dinner the next night. Nobody cried over it then, fluffy or dinner, you decide. Have a beer. I can think of a million other asshats who deserve that title more than you.
