hey thunder, crew, I hope you don't mind me posting this here, you can delete it if you want, or when it goes back up.

WS is dead for a while...the permissions are screwed up and I can't write to anything. I'm working on it asap, so everyone waiting hang around here at HLP.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Getting cgi scripts to work is the most tedious thing in the world. I've been playing around with BB scripts. They're so temperamental.

You will be able to rectify the problem soon Ronin?

Title: Warpstorm
Post by: heretic on September 06, 2001, 01:39:00 pm

Not really- it's kaput. not the forum, but the server itself.

we're working on it, but it's uphill. Expect WS to be down for 2-5 days, if not more.

I really don't know what to do, but I think I might have to start sorta from scratch again (although I can import the old threads and members)

best I can say right now is keep your fingers crossed  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/frown.gif)

No matter. Can't get online much these days anyway. An hour or so at school, if I don't eat. Today is a special day.

Jees Ronin, I didn't know it was that bad! How the hell did that happen to the server?

Also, good luck with getting it back up. After 3 weeks away, I'm suffering withdrawl symptoms.

Just give me the address and an axe and I'll make it all better  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/devil.gif).

Of course, the server won't get back up any faster, but beggers can't be choosers.

Speaking of Warpstorm, Eishtmo, have you written any more stories about the guy who saved Santa from his grandfather and got hit by a semi, and taught the kids who robbed his store how to do it more efficiently?  Those things were great, and the only reason I visit WS from time to time is solely to see if any more have been written.

Hey, heretic, we found one of the lurkers that infested WS. Now we have to find only  the other 9.999.

I'm begining to think that I'm addicted to warpstorm. It was the only place I visited online, but now I'm forced to lurk around here and the VBB *shudders* I've got to find another place...

Title: Warpstorm
Post by: ^Graff on September 06, 2001, 09:36:00 pm

Hey, I only visited about 6 times.  That doesn't really qualify me as a lurker, does it?

Title: Warpstorm
Post by: Eishtmo on September 06, 2001, 11:24:00 pm

Well ^Graff, assuming heretic can recover the threads, the original (but vastly improved) "So There I Was. . ." has been posted there for a couple weeks now.  Search through the story forum for it.  As soon as I get some time (and I don't have much), I'll see about writing some more.

I still want to write the one about me, William Shatner, the Wigmakers Answer to Rogain, and why I've been permently banned from all Star Trek functions forever and a day.

If any of you WSer's are still out there, I've gone through my old FSA forums and dressed them as a temp for Warpstorm.  Go here. ("http://pub30.ezboard.com/bfreespacestoryarchiveforum")

Yeah I know, its ezboard and it sucks.
