Ah, shaddap Torgeson. You and your crappy idealistic one love community rot. Go boil ya head.


If I didn't already know how sweet and full of honey you've been to me, I would have clicked the "Report Abusive Post" with little or no hesitation. ;)

As far as I know, everything should be okay now. Doug is staying online for a little while longer to look for anything subtly wrong.

It appears that one of our backup processes caused the database to lock at aroun 0320 PDT (1120 GMT), which resulted in many systems failing (like login, many in game systems, and parts of the website). The database is current humming along fine, and things appear to have recovered.

Sorry to the UKers for the inconvenience; going back to bed now.

Mark, one question. Did you have to manually unlock this or did it unlock by itself?

It may be a little depressed, but I wouldn't go so far as to say its *DOWN*...

I had to take corrective action, yes.

... or is it just my system?

Since installing Half Life 2, nothing seems to work properly, so I don't know whether the problem is sl or me.


Sure, just rub it in that you have Half Life 2. I am still back on Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and Halo 2, with not nearly enough sessions of Rollercoaster Tycoon 3. My god, too many amazing games all at once. :cool: Don't even get me started on World of Warcraft.

Cristiano,

<<Sure, just rub it in that you have Half Life 2.>>

Believe me, you are not missing anything. I'm running a 2.6 Mhz computer with 1Gb RAM and a 6850 card. It took over seven hours to install, and still crashes every time I try to play it.

Most of the problems are due to the unbelievably complicated and *stupid* copy protection system.

I'm never going to buy a Sierra game again.

I already spend half of my life in First Life and half of my life in Second Life. I don't have any time for another half life.

:p
