Posted by skankdelvar,

Welcome to our TalkBass Pals I for one am desolated to hear of TalkBass's travails. Were the same to happen to BC (perish the thought) I would be so entirely mortified that I would literally shed body weight until service was resumed. To which end I echo our glorious leader @ped in extending a welcome to those orphans of the storm, where ere they hail, who wash ashore upon our modest strand, blameless victims of a catastrophic failure beyond their control.

Wonder how the lyrics to Talky Bass (Goes Down) go.

When I was googling furiously last year trying to educate myself, I found that the vast majority of useful results were talkbass threads. It's a lot more pleasant than some other forums I've belonged to, and I found that the worst end of the spectrum of behaviour there vanished after only a handful of clicks of the ignore button.

Yes, they announced that there was a fire in the server complex, and they're working on restoring the equipment and it should be up and running "in a couple days."

It depends if they have ponied up to have presence across multiple data centers. Such distributions, especially where a database is involved, can get very costly, very quickly. And these costs are usually preferred to be profit in the site owners pockets... because you know, computer stuff never goes wrong.

I've heard that ped sent the boys round to be a bit 'clumsy' with their cigarette butts. The next few days are crucial- while the other outfit are in damage limitation mode we're out sticking flags in disputed turf. It won't be a complete coup, but it's a hell of a power grab.
