What?! I have no idea what you mean! Those bolt cutters and rubber gloves are for pruning my trees!...... Yes.... Trees.

I'm sorry, are we supposed to feel bad about this?


But seriously, they'll be back up in no time.

An electrical problem? Does this mean that Shrapnel is working for Seibertron tron?

It seems that Donmurphy.net is down too. Hopefully things will be fixed shortly.

They've been offline for close to a day now. I wonder if Hasbro or Bay are peeved enough with them to have done this. Just a thought of course. Hope they'll be back soon.

The term is spanking the veins! ( Cobra Commander laugh ) Bwahahahahahaha

Further Explanation here: http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid ... 01/1715247

They're hosted at the same place as my site

Here is the reason from the hosting company, "a transformer in our H1 data center in Houston caught fire",

http://forums.theplanet.com/index.php?showtopic=90185

so, a "Transformer" did it

Told you it was Shrapnel, Shrapnel.

so Im guessin TFW is gonna be down for a few more days probably
oh well itll (hopefully ) make more peeps come over to Seibs

wow... just wow. Thanks for that link Paul. I work in a data centre environment just like ThePlanet, and I never realized just how volitile it can be at times. I'm just glad no one was hurt. It's going to be a couple weeks of hell there while they clean everything up, both on the data centre side and the customer relations side.

I wonder if the Plant hosted confourms? I mean every confourms message
board I go to is down (including my own) hell even the confourms homepage is down.

yup, it's a pretty big problem, "impacting approximately 9,000 servers and 7,500 customers."

If each server has over 100 web sites, as some of mine do (almost 300 on one server), then there could be over 1 million web sites down

and the 7.5K customers are 'their customers', this number doesn't include the customers of the customers.

I sure hope TFW2005 will be back online soon.. I have a PM I really need to access.

Im sure the trading thread will understand given the nature of the site being down. Of course it may not be that at all, but there's an announcement on tfw2005.net saying tonight it should be up.

Besides the Seibertron,The Allspark and TFans which weren't effected like TFW2005 was does anybody know of any other major Transfans sites that were hit?

That's good news. I have nothing against Seibertron, or any other TF sites, but my favorite so far has been TFW2005 (I have been posting there for almost two years now).

Thanks. I'd get on here and post more often, but I'm still trying to get used to the layout of everything. It took me at least a month to get used to TFW's layout, lol.

lol, hate to tell you man, but Seibertron is probably gonna get a revamp since the boards are difficult for some members. It will definately look nicer and hopefully be easier to navigate.

Many of the Invisionfree forums were also down due to the same thing, though I think most of those are back up (at least my Transformers RP board is).

Actually, that's good, imo. It'll be easir to get used to once it's easier to navigate.

Oh good, I was afraid you'd be like, Damm, just when I was able to put up with the site, they change it again.

lol. Depending on how long it is till the update, that could happen. Something pretty similar happend to me once. It was back when the X-box controlers were the big one's that were hard to handle. I finally got used to them when the then replaced them with the smaller, easier to use controlers. I also didn't get my own X-box till after they were standard.

lol, I still use the big remotes. The smaller ones just feel, well, small.

The Main Page is working for me but I can't get onto the boards
