Forums back up?

kennyminot · 06-01-2011, 10:04 AM

What's going on in eDGe land? I just managed to post a message on the forums.

Indeed.

I'd guess it's all a matter of when the server company nukes the site now, and no longer up to entourage at all.

I had supposed that the last person to leave the building forgot to turn off the mains at the fusebox, but see in other posts the forum server did appear to go down.

So, next ideas?

Burglars turned the power back on?

The developers snuck in to download the final Ermine release and SDK for us?

Back for an encore?

I get the Home page now when I click on my forum shortcut. Does this mean forums are gone for good, but registration server/updater is active??

I think some other users reported that registration wasn't working for them either, I think at this point the whole thing is gone for good(except the homepage and that strange page with mildly nsfw books lol)

They did say that registration would continue for the forseeable future. That was two weeks ago; we don't know how far they could forsee, and they've been extremely bad about keeping their promises, so I wouldn't want to bet on this, but it could be that the registration being down is a temporary glitch, similar to the way the board was going up and down the last few weeks, so it'd definitely be worth it to keep trying. It'd be even better to phone them and ask what's going on, I think. They're not very good about keeping their customers informed.

Incidentally, I didn't think that the book was nsfw, but of course that depends on where you work ....

I take it you saw that title by John Anderson about inverted cattle hands too...

I think nsfw implicitly excludes those who work in the adult services industry...

One of the images of the covers of one of the books could be considered by some as nsfw, though it didn't contain any actual nudity, but now it seems that while you can reach the page, all of the images of the books are gone... And i just noticed that one of them was set to release June 6, I wonder if it will lol.

Seeing the title "Yours to keep" ... might it be the Final (non beta) ermine release ?
