olyclimber Posted December 16 Posted December 16 We are not dead! That was extremely trying. The server totally crashed in a terrible way right in the middle of a super intense week at work for me and I was taxed mentally to the max figuring this out. Luckily I have a couple really good friends, ex-coworkers...but they are friends to give me moral support and confidence to do everything I did which was rebuild everything on modern software. So the site is in a MUCH better place than it was pre-crash. I still have a bunch of maintainance to do, but the site is back up and going. Thank you for sticking around. We WILL keep this place alive dammit. 5 1 6 1 Quote
olyclimber Posted December 16 Author Posted December 16 I think we lost just a few posts as I had to restore from a backup to start the journey to recover the site. It wasn't much, that still does bum me a little and I'm sorry. But the site is back and I'm really happy. I was so stressed. 1 Quote

Alisse Posted December 18 Posted December 18 Thank you so much for getting it back up. I've actually been working on a little project archiving all my TRs as PDFs in legit printable formats (not an easy task) out of fear/knowledge that someday this place will burn down and not come back...glad that time has not come yet!

I’m exploring ways to keep it going and making it more resilient. But what I did was a huge step. We are now on the latest OS, and dumped a bunch of old stuff that wasn’t used for the site, all the underlying components got upgraded. we just need to keep it simple. I will keep it going. 1 1 Quote
