TCG: Whaddup?

Hey guys .. I've looked a bit but cant find any good info on whats up with TCG.

I asked Laura, she told me they would be back up tommorow, and that they went down at 6:00PM Sunday evening.

this is what the owner JB posted on teh boards:
Well I guess its Murphys law,, we had 2 harddrives fail
on our Netapp. We had one spare we keep in stock at
all times just for this problem. That means we had one
but not 2 and guess what the other drive from Net app is
on its way as we speak via air freight. I can anticipate we
will be up as soon as possible.

As I said earlier,, ALL webmasters will be paid for average
joins plus 10%. We know you work hard for delivering
traffic to TCG and I am as upset as you are. Think I am
working on 2 hours sleep but who cares. It will be up and
every webmaster will be paid for traffic during this downtime.
Ok anyhow ... Between 6:00Pm yesterday, and 8:00pm today .. thats over 24 hours of down time due to drives.

I've had drives, memory, mother boards .. you name it .. go bad at the most random times ...

You can ALWAYS get backups quicker than 24 hours ... and if nothing else you can get new servers or some shit to at least let traffic flow, not lose retention .. or what the fuck ever ...


Anyhow .. Just thinking that this HAS to be more than just 2x HDD failure.

Any input?

Thanks,
Mike
