UOPG Down

The host killed UOPG because of "high usage".

I am working on a solution as we speak.

Hasta.

Can we blame OSI for that too? I mean, if AoS' launch hadn't been such a washout, people wouldn't have been bored and wouldn't have come here so much...

mmm kay

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't "high usage" a good thing for the host? That means people are using his bandwidth and generating money for him right?

I don't ever see ads on UOPG, (thank goodness) so I wouldn't imagine that the high usage would be worthwhile unless he was advertising on this page. Anyways, I hope you find something good Nieves, this site is too damn awsome to be down for so long. I just hope the contributers still write up on the Front Page forums Eventhough the main page is down, we could still use the information flow.







May your travels be safe and profitable

Hosting

I think we got a host for UOPG.

Will be a few days yet before we are back up.

UOPG has 3 sponsors. Their ads were on the front page. I just didn't do pop ups because pop ups suck.

a special announcement.

Acually UOPG is down because of the following :

Hi,

The load from your site has caused the server you are on to crash several times in the past few days. We do not believe we will be able to host you further. Please contact us to make arrangements to move your site to another host.

We are sorry for the trouble but after the fourth crash we had no choice but to deactivate your site for the sake of the others on the server.

Best Regards,

PHPWebhosting

Forums are still up

Hasta.

Welcome back Nieves. It's obviously time for us to go the the UOPowergamers shoppe and buy some stuff to better finance the site.

[Update: Fri Feb 28 06:51:52 2003 CST]

It appears that the domain transfer and DNS updates are completed. However, it will take some time for the entries that are cached in the various ISP's name servers around the world to expire and collect the new data.

Please be patient.
Thanks

Any chance in the future UOPG will turn into a pay site similar to what IGN has done?

When they first launched their Insider program, I signed up, if nothing else, for the sake of keeping IGN alive.

I'm glad UOPG got a new host. However, should a time ever come in the future when the decision to turn pay site or close the site needs to be made, I'll be one of the first to sign up for the pay site. UOPG is too good of a site to go away permanently.

By the way, hats off to Nieves for always asking the hard questions of the folks at OSI and not submitting to political bullshit.
