Site been offline for few days??

Yeah, David dropped some Black Goo on our server and the Engineers got fried... LOL

In actuality though we did experience some server issues and I was online with our support team for the better portion of 12 hours working to resolve the issues. Took us a while but we finally broke through and have since stabilized everything. Site should run smoothly now. Sometimes though, outages like that do occur for a number of different reasons.

Chris That's funny XD 

I'm sorry to hear about the server issues and is thankful for you guys and all your hard work. Thank you. Just glad to be back :)

Thank you Chris for your time and money spent on the issue.

We owe quite a bit of gratitude from our enjoyment due to your team's investment in this site. 

Thanks Chris!

Thanks for getting it back up and running.

No problem guys! Thank you all for your patience. We've experienced outages throughout our lifetime as a network but yesterday was one of the more puzzling ones for sure. Likely won't be the last issue we encounter, but with every new problem we learn a little more. Happy to have things back up and running! And just in time for the unveiling of our Animated Series episode 2, which will be online very soon ;)

I messaged SciFied on their facebook page and they said they were under a DDoS attack >_< . Glad they recovered and I can't help wishing a minor catastrophe on the person or persons responsible.

Thanks Chris! You're a legend!

found the culprit. someone let Ash in to the server room ;-)

Ash: There is an explanation for this, you know.

@IRaptus

LOL!

Well, now I feel even less bad about his demise. Though, Ripley shouldn't have disconnected him before letting Parker incinerate him.

Lawrence of Arabia is that a nude boudoir picture of Dallas on the left of that image XD

VivisectedEngineer read Alien: Out of the Shadows to truly get my reference/joke ;-)

@IRaptus

OOooh! Thanks for the reminder, that's still very much on my to do list!

Lol Thought it just may have been my phone,then I got messages about my account being deleted???Then I realized the site was just down.

After VivisectedEngineer mentioned the Sciefied FB post, I read a bit about those attacks. Sounds like spam on steroids.

So we're crew expandable?

ninXeno426 hahah that work's too!

My reference was to him was more directed to his involvement in Alien: Out of the Shadows novel.

in the book Ash apparently managed to upload his AI into the Narcissus shuttle's OS before they killed his body, then onto the Marion Mining ship.

He basically trolled Ripley and co. the whole book lol

Still seems weird. I will get the 502 message with the first image with more than 90 members present. I log out and come back in and see around 60 members in less than a minute.

dk Do you see people from the UK? Where is bigdave? Maybe some servers are still down. You should create a thread asking people where there are based so we'll find out who is not with us.
