Damn forums down again. You need a better host SIN Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Just to let you know what's happening... hehe [long story] When ozperformance was first started, we were sponsored by www.infodoma.com , so we got our hosting for free, which was great! And they were an excellent host. Now ozperformance has reached a size where they couldn't really keep hosting us for free which is understandable. So, a largish plan with yet another company has been purchased, which leads me to another story We are currently on the new server, and you may have noticed that the network is a bit dodgy (it's on burstnet), but to add some more to the weird **** going on, they'll be switching to a more stable network very soon, which may mean a small ammount of downtime again while the switch is done. www.ozperformance.net and www.vlforums.com shound work soon, the dns records are updateing which takes a couple of days - if people are having trouble with those addresses, they can use this instead: http://64.191.30.220/~ozp/ We've now got heaps of bandwidth, so there won't be any of those problems again at least :mrgreen: Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I thought DNS's updated in roughly about 8 hours depending on the number of requests for the location? By all means correct me if i'm wrong. At least we shouldn't have bandwidth issues for a while.

Updating DNS records takes around 24-72 hours for the changes to propogate globally is the ozperformance.net name working for people yet? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

not yet, maybe wait till tomorrow (1st of april) Dan

yep.. can take up to 72 hrs for the changes to be applied globally - depending on the dns server your isp uses, it may take a bit sooner or later than others. but 24 hrs is the norm.

I just think that the site admin spends too much time getting drunk and not enough time runnin his site Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i second that, if he spent the same money on the site as he does sms'ing people while hes drunk we'd have no problems here Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

haha :mrgreen: I don't know what you're talking about ops: Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Should be working tomorrow sometime for most people (I hope ) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Im still getting some dodgy message when I click on some item's

What message? and which items cause it INFLYT? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

hey platinum, you know those emails that you get when someone has posted in a thread that you are "watching". yeah well i still get them, but the link no longer works. could be something that needs looking into. Dan.

bloody gavin, he's such a piss head. the email thing seems to be working fine for me now though. i had a whinge to him on icq Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ah - yep, I was trying to be too tricky with error checking and changed the DNS servers again to try and work out why the stupid thing wasn't working But I outsmarted myself lol - email links will work soon though Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I'm not too worried about the down time, it is a hassel but like it has been stated in Dis-Enfranchised thread (http://www.ozperformance.net/viewtopic.php?t=9342) there is down time for all car nutters at one stage or another with regards to their pride and joy, well I see this as the same situation. We all love our OzPerformance Forums too much and when there is some down time we get irritated because we can't go cruising the net, instead we have to cruise the lacoal strip..

Seem's all cool today platinum, but I'll p.m you if the problem arises again
