Network OutagePosted by Magnus on 7 July 2001, 14:56 GMT
  As many of you probably noticed, ticalc.org was hit with a network outage friday evening. Due to the bad timing of this (being a late friday evening, and also the time when the only person who could really get to things to check what was wrong (me) was on a flight home from TechEd in Barcelona), the network outage lasted for 15-16 hours. It has now been fixed.   The problem was in the access router from Telia through which all the internet traffic goes.  |  |

I was just going to say the exact same thing.  And to everybody who thinks I didn't do it, I didn't do it for publicity.  I could care less if you don't believe me....Actually, it's better off you not believing me.  It just makes my day a lot better knowing there are total idiots running the internet, and so called "criminals" who are network and computer geniuses.  I may have gone off the deep end by doing the DDoS attack, but it was for my own sake.  I was kicked off of these forums a hell of a long time ago for swearing once, so I finally came to the conclusion of destroying their connection to the net for a day or two.  Only lasted a day tho...  So, yeah, if you want to know who this is admins...it's Akromix..  Yup, it's good old me.  I remember coming to this site when it was first up.  When there was those green buttons on the left and said Ticalc.org at the top frame.  I remember the good old days when everything was a-o-k..  Well, time fo sleep now.  
 Good luck, and god speed.  BTW...fix your damned router jeeves...  IT's damned easy to drop connections if you ping it enough.

Hey TICalc.org people, I know it's off-topic but I thought it would be very constructive...
 Have you ever considered putting together a Perl script (or something to that effect) that automatically updated each author's page whenever it was visited? I find it a little strange sometimes to see myself ranked #53 for an entire day, only to come back an hour later and have 100 more downloads (without me knowing it was going on).
 
 I just think it would be nice to have a real-time idea of how well we're doing on here.
 
 Thanks!
