TopHos – Were Back

[Guest Ethan]

Sorry for the downtime.

We did send a mass message to all users stating we were expecting to be down between Jan 3rd – Jan 6th.

Unfortunately they unplugged our server on Jan 2nd. (A day early.)

The servers were transported across the country they reside in to the new data-center’s location.

It took more days to transport than our hosts originally expected.

Upon arriving at the new location they ran into problems with the electric in the facility, it took a few days to fix these issues apparently.

After fixing those issues they started inserting all the servers into their racks. When it came time to insert our server and boot it up, it shit the bed, more than likely due to the bumpy ride.

Therefore, we are now using a newly setup server with better specs than our last one. Since we were doing a new setup on the server we also made some updates to the software we were using. There should now be more room for future updates to the source code were using as well. ::w00t w00t::

Torrents and Announces should be working properly.

Alot of old torrents got deleted for inactivity, some still exist.

If your client is showing torrents from Tophos in red for a long period of time feel free to delete them from your client.

Stay tuned for more updates.

Mailserver = fixed.

Bitbucket not accepting new images = fixed.

Torrents Restored from Pre 1-2-12 = Fixed.

Transferring avatars and sigs = Not Done.

Some newly uploaded torrents vanishing. = Not Done.
