Scheduled Downtime Tonight

[Dave]

Tonight (September 20) there will be downtime at some point between 11 pm and 3 am tomorrow morning (September 21). All times are EDT.

The downtime itself should last no longer than 15 minutes, but it could happen at any point in that time frame.

(This is the evil doing of our host. :evil: So don't get mad at me if you can't get on. Get mad at them. :P)

Speaking of which, is there any reason why I would not be able to get on to Talk Budgies? I've had times where it is nearly impossible to get on. I can go to other websites, but for some reason, recently Talk Budgies has been a bear to get onto. I just get an error message.

[Dave]

What's the error message?

Maybe this is one of the reasons they're working on the server tonight.

[skythrutrees]

Just tells me that it can't access the page I'm looking for. So yeah, probably why they are doing the work.

[Budgiekin]

Downtime? Downtime?! DOWNTIME?!?!! This is unacceptable Dave!! :eek:

Breathe Budgiekin, breathe....

Oh wait! I'm in bed at that time anyway! Woo hoo! Okay, let me rephrase my first paragraph then:

Excellent Dave! Performing these updates is very important as we need to make sure any bugs are worked out and our forum stays running smoothly. Thank you for telling the little devil of a host what to do on our behalf so that we all stay happy. :)

[clifff123]

Grrrrrr, that means our paychecks will be short again this month.
It's always something !!

Quiet Cliff! You aren't supposed to discuss your paycheque publicly (or, let's be honest, the lack of....)!! :tapedshut: Everyone knows I am the only one getting paid here.... Maybe if you had a plan to take over the world, you could get paid too... :D

What?! So not only do you have a jet, but you also get paid? :eek: Honestly, what is the world coming to?


... and hang on, what's this about taking over the world? Are you planning on world domination with John again Kim? :eek:

But on topic, I think that's in the morning here, in which case I wouldn't be on anyway, so I should survive :p

You took the words right out of my mouth.
Yay updates! :party:

LOL! At least you're getting your paychecks. Kim steals mine.

[SpickyDavies]

what, i have to talk to real people?

[louara]

OMG! That is time I come on and talk to the Australian members :eek:



Oh wait,I forgot, Dancing with the Stars starts tonight and I am recording it-so it's all good:D

[i love Budgie]

I am fine, tucked up in bed :D Can't wait to see the moderfications :) long worddddd

[BeckiC]

what, i have to talk to real people?

Yes Spicky. Yes, you do.

It's that or you crawl into a corner and weep until the forum's back up. :D

[CaptainCarebear]

Oh, thank goodness I'll be in bed! :giggle:

[helloyo53]

Paychecks? Or lack thereof. :P

I'll be in bed anyway, so it'll all good. I feel bad for the Australian members though. I would hate to have to go through with all that anxiety when you don't know when the site will be down. :eek: Oh well, have fun! :P

[Budgiekin]

Is there an 'issssu' Brandon? (inside joke :p) If so, you better take it up with admin. Oh wait, that could be me.... The answer is no paycheque! :p (Was that the right answer Dave!?)

Nope, no isssssu, just stating a point. :P

Though, back on topic about the downtime, my Talk Budgies is really slow right now. Will it be fixed after the downtime? Is the slowness because of the upcoming downtime?

[teasha]

what, i have to talk to real people?

We are not real!?! OMG I thought I was real? So all this time I've been... fake. :crying:

[FeatheryAngel]

It will most likely affect me...since that will be the afternoon or night here which I am on TB a lot. Hrmph...:mad:

[FeatheryAngel]

Yeah Brandon, I'll have soo much fun! -_- lol. Why does it always have to happen to me!!! :furious:

[helloyo53]

Yeah Brandon, I'll have soo much fun! -_- lol. Why does it always have to happen to me!!! :furious:

So I guess there IS a disadvantage to living in Australia. :P

[Budgiekin]

But people in Australia get to ride kangaroos and koalas to school and work! How bad can that be?? :p

(I know I know, that's about as true as Canadians living in igloos... and saying "aboot".... :P)

[Budgerigarluv]

I hope I am in bed when this happens.

[helloyo53]

I know one thing, Talk Budgies is a lot faster now. I'm glad. :P

[Budgiekin]

I know another thing Brandon... You're _ _ _ _ _!!! Just kidding. :p

But yes, Talk Budgies is behaving much better now. Who knew I'd have such a good sleep while Talk Budgies was undergoing busy busy maintenance... :D

[michiyoLove]

Lol, I can't believe that didn't effect me... I was on at 1-4 AM CST :)

[BudgieKiss]

This explains why the site wasn't working for me before. I was about to throw the computer on the ground. Ha ha ha, I love TB so much, my second family :D
