Doing the same for me. I would assume therefore it's not just you.

Of course it would happen on a US holiday.

Admins have been notified. No need for any more "me too" posts.

What US holiday is on today?

How many people watching this thread are Irish? (So am I) Anyway, seeing as the time zones are so far apart, it could be 2am before NS is fixed.

Not to mention that even the Mods probably don't know. That's the admin's job. And remember that they are looking for a new admin. That could mean that until the new admin comes, NS will be doomed.

Calm down. Fris already said the admins were being contacted. It's Thanksgiving in America. Surely you can manage one day without NS? Besides, the forums are still up. I don't think prophesying 'doom' is especially helpful.

[QUOTE=Gruenberg] Surely you can manage one day without NS? QUOTE]
I could, but the thing is that this could be another one of those 'Disk Space Disaster of 2005' things, and all of my work into NS would be ruined. Then I wouldn't bother with NS, or I'd waste another hour (a day) at the stupid game.

Which I suppose would be a good thing, in other ways.

AFAIK, their looking for a new admin does in no way imply that *the* admin's position is vacant now. actually, i'm rather sure that everyone's still on and about, but they are just looking for additional ones/spare ones if somebody actually did need to leave at some point?

you don't really think they'd leave NS uncovered with admins for any length of time now, right?

It's the middle of the night in Australia, and the middle of the holiday in the US. If [violet] gets insomnia, or if Salusa gets bored with cooking, or if the baby wakes Max, maybe they'll check their email. It's not a disk failure, the web service has simply shut down. It will be back up within seconds after one of them reads about it.

Until then, CHILL. Go chatter in General, not here.

You are going a little bit off-topic here, don't you think??

Its funny how everyone panicks over these things. This has happend so many times now, the Admins and Mods do a good job so I'm sure they'll work their magic, but it is Holiday Time in the US so be patient.

(I'm from Ireland too, btw ;))

For future reference, it would help if the mods had power to fix problems such as these....

As a sidenote, NS seems to be running normal again, we don't need this anymore?
