Because the server is being upgraded (I'm doubling the space), it is supposed to be down from 3:51pm - 4:51pm (GMT) tomorrow (February 28). For me, that'll be 10:51am - 11:51am (EST). Now, it might not be done by 4:51pm GMT so give it some time. As I'm at work during the time the upgrade is scheduled to occur and won't be online until around 5pm EST (or 10pm GMT), if there are any issues that need to be dealt with on my end it won't be handled before then.

You sure this isn't happening now? Because the chat is giving me issues not loading after it basically decided to quit on me.

It went out at 9:08 PM Eastern time, or thereabouts. As of 10:41, it's still screwed up.

Ah...so this hasn't happened to just me then? I know I have issues getting into Ezboard sometimes, and with both IE and Firefox.
...and yet Crim seems to think it's rebelling because I won't draw the Crim statue in a bikini. XP

Crim, it's JUST a chatroom. Chatrooms don't rebel.

Great Success !
Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server

If you can see this page, then the people who manage this server have installed cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) which use the Apache Web server software and the Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) successfully. They now have to add content to this directory and replace this placeholder page, or else point the server at their real content.

ATTENTION!

If you are seeing this page instead of the site you expected, please contact the administrator of the site involved. (Try sending an email to <webmaster@domain>.) Although this site is running cPanel, WebHost Manager, and Apache software it almost certainly has no other connection to cPanel Inc. or the Apache Group. Please do not send mail about this site or its contents to cPanel Inc. or the Apache Group.

It's 14:42GMT on the 29th at time of writing, and that's what the sonic-hq.net domain gives. o.o

For the time being, just sit tight and use any backup chat systems (IM, IRC, etc.) for the Flashchat RP group; it seems that it may take more time than was originally projected.

However, all things considered, it's amazing that this board hasn't been affected by the lack of server-provided images. I believe that Yuku lets you upload images to it directly instead of relying on a server for them, which makes it a lot easier during these server upgrades.

#mfrp is open, of course. If any of the RPers are unsure on how to get in it, they're welcome to IM me.

I don't host the images for the board. ^^

That's Dr L. 😉

And yeah, as I noted over at the RP board, I'm checking out the settings right now.

Would it be possible for you to give us an estimate of how long this is going to take?

Well, so much for my "no worry, no hurry." 😛

It makes sense, but it's also kind of funny that the main people concerned about the server are just us Flashchatters.

Well, it is affecting us more than the average MoFoer.

You mean we aren't just average Mofoers?
*le gasp* I'm an RPER! YES! That's right! I feel important!

It's not just RPers who are affected, though. Craig and I use the MF Chat during his lunch break/when I wake up on weekdays. Lately, it's been our only time to talk due to college and job working against the timezones. And when we heavily depend on that time to catch up and maintain some semblance of a relationship, it hurts when it's taken away due to technology being stubborn.

I realize there's next to nothing we can do to help, but if there is, please let me know. I greatly value that time, and while PMing has a nostalgic email feel, it works against us when we can only send 4 PMs an hour.

Also, Deck. XD It's true.
And I LOVE YOUR PICTURE. Trucy is so adorable. ^^

You could always use the yuku test chat for the time being as that too is a flash based chat (but not quite as pretty yet). And indeed @ trucy

It loads fine for me on my laptop, but Craig wasn't able to at work. ^^; We tried, but thanks for the suggestion.

Well since I'm on the lappy atm (which doesn't have a IM programme on it) I'm using meebo.com - it seems to support all the major IM companies like MSN and the like

Can he use that?

On one hand, life without flashchat is making me one cranky wolfy.

On the other hand, I've got more of my maths assignment done in the past two days than since it was given about a month ago.

We know; it seems the RPers have fled to a new room for the time being, and Craig and I have been making do with PMs. I doubt everyone's completely happy, but we're dealing in the meantime ^^

We've been using an IRC room; but we may or may not bring up a chat room on Ash's website, you'll have to ask him for details.

I am getting the "Apache" message whenever I try to go to the main site too. I am glad to know I am not the only one.
