So it went down at around 1:56AM GMT and the new index was posted at 2:08AM GMT.

From what I saw before the message came up, everything is intact aside from the files in the root directory of the domain.

You can still view the threads and **** HERE (http://www.warpstorm.com/archive). So the database is okay.

Well fellow Warpstormers, I don't have a clue what happened.  No, heretic didn't go nuts and kill the site (he's denied it at least and I'm inclined to believe him), so it does look like a hackjob of some type.  No details as of yet.  As soon as I learn anything, I'll let you know.

You could almost set your watch by this ****.

Actually, I should have expected it. I mean, me coming home from a 5 week long vacation and warpstorm being up all the time until I got back would've been a miracle.

This does, however, give me some time to write up my story full of the weird stuff that happened when I was away.

I don't really go that far with my fascination for old spagetti westerns, so no.

Update people:  WS was up at about 11:30 am CST.  It's not now (some error).  heretic says it should be up sometime tonight, probably in time for tomorrow morning (my addition).  When you get there, please make fun of my "We're Back" thread.

Yes, I was wrong.  Wrong for being optimistic.

And it can't be God.  I didn't take that much from him at that poker game last week.

Well, it's been nearly a week and it's still not up.  Raise your hand if you're not surprised.

Well, while we wait Deadman has a set of forums (http://ironmarch.krabbit.com/index.php) we can play in.  But not too much or for very long.  Apparently he's moving sometime next week, but Warpstorm should be back by then, right?

Yeah right.

As one of the few that's been there since close to the start, I've given up.

RIP Warpstorm.

You're that desperate for a place to spam? Sheesh, just go to Third Space (http://invisionfree.com/forums/General_Yack/index.php?). Nice, helpless board, low membership, mostly garbage anyway.

something like that, 'cept I was gone for 4-5 weeks (hard to keep track on time). I just hope it comes back up, because ws is/was really special.

No, I never spam.  There was a lot more to that board then just spamming.  The people etc.

My  patience is wearing a bit thin as well.  Last I heard (via vbbexiles) something went wrong with the board, and heretic doesn't have a clue what.  That's it, nothing more.  It doesn't help that the asshole got himself banned from here, one of the few places a good chunk of us go too.

For now, go to Deadman's board.  I'd like to keep the community togeather, even if Warpstorm is kaput, for good this time.  So go and registar and post something.  At least until DM moves, we'll have someplace to be.
