Scheduled Board Outages

I know; I'm mostly kidding. But I do wonder when these seemingly twice-weekly upgrade notifications are going to stop. It's almost like they're playing a game to see how long it can actually take them to upgrade the system.

 

I think they've been doing network upgrades across all their servers. I have a link to their server status page, which is where I find out about these and current problems that might affect us.

Pizza run!

 

Spot the differences between October and February xDDDDD

As a born, not raised, but returned New Yorker since 2009, I fully support this message.
Though you spelled "oblivion" wrong, not sure how your autocorrect changed that to maintenance.

 

New Jersey is the Florida of the north.

 

Oh really? I've always said that Ohio is North Florida. Especially when it comes to rivaling the well-known Florida Man.

 

Every time this thread comes up I wonder why we're scheduling outrages. Don't we have enough unscheduled outrages in the JCC?

 

It isn't us scheduling the outages - it's our board host. New Jersey is the server we (and the Rebelscum site) are on.

 

Check his (intentional mis)spelling.

 

Yeah, but it's a legitimate question. The host site has been doing quite a few upgrades recently and not just to the server we're on.
