About today's outage
Post Number:#1 
by MidnightCoder » Tue Apr 25, 2017 10:33 pm
Hi all,
I haven't had much time to be on RT lately, but I hope that everyone is doing well.
So this afternoon the server went down intermittently due to heavy load. It has been up and down in the hours since then, but to most of you it would simply appear to be down the whole time. We are still working with our host to gather information about this incident, and to prevent a repeat occurrence.
The site should be stable now, although it might be a bit sluggish for a bit. You can PM me with any problems that don't resolve themselves over the next 12 hours.
We're all sorry for the inconvenience. I know that RT withdrawal is a serious matter.

Thanks, David, for dealing with this problem. You're always there for us when we need you.
You may have saved hundreds of members from the horrors of RT withdrawal. (((Shudder)))

Thanks M/C, good job!
Maggie's right, withdrawals are no fun. Maybe we need to add another step to the 12 step program.

We noticed that earlier! Great job getting on top of it so quickly, MC!
Ain't that the truth!

Oh thank goodness it's back! I was "this" close to standing on a street corner in my bathrobe and slippers asking random strangers as they slipped by, "Do you want to talk about rabbits??? What about you kind sir? Please talk about rabbits with me... PLEASE!"
Crisis averted
Thanks for the update Midnight Coder!

I’m with Crazy, I came terribly close to approaching strangers to beg for rabbit-related conversation… 
Thank you MidnightCoder for averting the crisis, yesterday might have gone down in infamy as “The Great RT Recession of 2017” were it not for you!
Also, I did not realize how dependent I am on this site and its wonderful members until yesterday. Thank you all for feeding my bunny addiction!
