Why must it happen now?
Haloween crossovers and linexchanges are a great way to promote one's site! Waaaahh! :cry:

I know! I have a smashing idea but the timing of it all will just be ruined if the site isn't up again very very soon!

Heheh. Guess I'm not the only one. ^_^

Actually, can someone explain to me how it is that the forums are still up and my comic is still up, but the upload service is down? They must be on different servers, no?

Hopefully they'll get it up and running again before Halloween is over. ;)

Those on YDK (newer ones) are up, those on BOARDY are not.

*sigh* Happy Halloween. Trick or treat? I think we got trick.

Good thing I uploaded well in advance. Even if my comic isn't accessible even when boardy is up, and it wasn't a special holiday comic.

I bet right now a whole crowd of people is visiting FrightNight Website, and they are _not_ seeing my entry. Damn.

for free? I doubt that.
And keenspace doesn't suck, it just has "issues". yeah, that's right. yes.

Anyways, anyone tried paging Kisai with one of messengers? I don't have any.
And if someone did, it might be a good idea to tell others, because getting 20 messages at the same time may sure piss one off.

I just assumed someone else already has and they are probably working on it. Or, at least, that's my hope. :)

Why must I be so broke?
And have no knowledge of how to write auto-update scripts?
I wouldn't have to subject myself to this torture...

lol - I have to rely on manual updating too since even though my schedule falls on the same update days, the hour when it's actually ready to upload is sporadic. Hopefully our admins are hard at work on the problem! ^_^;

Confounded machine, why won't you work!? I've been on keenspace for a while now and survived that big mess earlier this year. I kept my cool, because it didn't really bother me that much, but these small outtages are really starting to get on my nerves.

OK, now the sites are back up, and that's good, I'm glad for that, except NOW I can't log into FTP to FINALLY upload my Halloween comic!
