If, as I read the message, is true and there was a huge database error/crash, I highly doubt it's something that could just be fixed in a snap or even a few hours. Sounds like a total nightmare to me and I truly feel bad for the people who are probably being kept late working trying to figure out what the devil is going on and how to fix it - as in fix it so it doesn't happen again (hopefully).

Remember, to err is human, to really mess things up requires a computer.

I'm also sure that Adam, Donna and the rest of the staff are all on pins and needles too. I know I wouldn't be getting any sleep until I had answers, solutions and things were working again if it was my site (I know they don't own it, but they have a truly vested interest in their "baby").

I'm having problems with my own computer, I'm no techie, so I'm really clueless ... CPU suddenly running at 100%, system lockup, spontaneous shutdown/restart - no virus or spyware, I've scanned everything with every tool possible. And that's just 1 personal computer. I can't concieve of what working on servers must comprise!

wow, I never really thought of it that way myself. I can imagine all these people complaining and cursing TNT right now for their blunders, but not one of them stops and thinks about the kind of hell that TNT must be going through in order to fix the site.

not nice~ I've been gone for almost a week, and the first night that I get on long enought to do more than stop at the guild for a quick message, and collect interest, and they're down... they are punishing me... it has nothing to do with cow juice, I tell ya!

Neo is down...and the red pteri isn't even there, it's some crazy dude.

Anyway, It was down so long I finally got round to making my set. Do you like it?

Medgal2003 · **Posted:** Wed Nov 17, 2004 6:50 am

I made myself a set too! But those mods -shifty eyes- would've messed it up because it was five pixels over the limit... o.O

Wow, I can't belive it, neo has been down for more than 18 hours now. I wonder when its going to get back up.

We're only doing our job *bows*

BTW please keep the chat off this thread or any posts will be deleted. We have boards such as Misc Discussion for this.

I wonder why they only have a small selection of games for you to play on the DFM page. It might depend on which games can work while the site is down, but I'm just guessing. I'd actually play one if either of the Hannah games was an option. Buuuuut...I probably wouldn't be able to play it anyway, because none of the games seem to load for me when the site is DFM.

I went to bed.... it's still not back.... If it's not back by the time I come back from school, i'm going to jump out of the window.

It seems they never get to celebrate their birthday properly. Every year the site experiences an ominous database "crash" around the brithday festivities... Isn't that a little too much coincidence? I hope they get it up and running again. I guess since the how to draw section still works loads more people will enter the art contests from now on

Yeah, why the heck do they have them there when they never work?? O.o

Yeah, I'd play HatPC/HatIC too if it was offered >.>

Last year when the big crash happened and HatPC (or was it Sutek's Tomb?) just came out people here asked for it and then they put it in the games list on the "Neopets is Down for Maintenance" page.

So hereby:

NEO STAFF: Could you put Hannah and the Ice Caves also in the games list? Only if you have the time and it's possible with it being shockwave and all.

Thankies.

It was HatPC that was added during last year's big crash. Wish they added Ice Caves now.

I want my missing lab day back, but oh well. This must have been serious.
