GUBA dead?
 

www.guba.com

doomsday?

We're down for maintenance page

hopefully.

Wouldn't surprise me if at the very least they're down whilst some major changes to their backend take place. I have no time or respect for the 'services' making newsgroup access easy when that access is obviously designed just for finding stolen stuff/content.

However when you start repackaging and reformatting the stolen stuff then you really do hit problems as they should have realised. It'd be no great shock to find it pop back with fewer 'features' and an awful lot of content now removed.

maybe they got so many c&d's it caused the servers to melt

let's hope so...

maintenance? with the apache default page?
mmmm...

Damn there goes my morning wank

hmm that would be a major backfire oif the GFY skin, heh

Yeah Maintenance

i get the apache page too

I figured at least a few of the gfy fruitcakes would have cranked up the ddos by now, anyway. :1orglaugh

hopefully they're righting their wrongs

I guess the skin wasn't such a great idea after all :1orglaugh

Im sure they even stole that page from someone

Hope so for everyone's sake.

guba guba guba

Cue the Iraqi info minister...

well this is a good start to the morning:)

No wonder they pulled the skin and asked a refund:

they skinned GFY for free thank to all of you morons

well it worked , got exposure didnt it ?? The Power of GFY:thumbsup

i think it's safe to say so :upsidedow

I think you are the moron here....

They removed the skin, because the images were way to big. They needed a lot of time to fine tune, so they decided to wait till March...

I hope Guba dies tho

who told that? the official reason was that they put it too early by accident - which is certainly bullshit

And we all know the validity behind 'official reasons'. Just a euphemism for 'saving face'.

Maybe Lesbodojo is taking down our copyrighted photos she promised to remove. :(

I guess I'd better take down all my hundreds of links.

Where is that top Guba affililate, fredisme, wonder how much he's making today. :1orglaugh

I think that the google / perfect10 ruling, combined with what was almost certainly a huge pile of remove requests, C&Ds, and DMCA complaints has lead them to pull the system down and re-examine the situation.

While pure usenet resellers (they give you a username and password, and you use your offline newsreader to download the threads you like) have the ISP immunity thing going on, once you filter, editorialize, sort, extract, and re-format / re-endcode images and videos for your end users, you are no longer safe. That lesbodojo was here taking remove requests yesterday shows that they understand that some (most if not all) of the content on their servers cannot legally be used.

I personally hope they stay down for a long time to come.

Death to the usenet.

crazy shit

it's been down for hours now, I doubt it's just a coincidence that they just happen to do maintenace today in the middle of the day...

Fuck 'em, good riddence!

Hope dies last.

Been down for quite sometime now

Every minute they are down is a victory for content creators!!! Long live the photogs, models, webmasters! Death to the usenet and other parasites!!! ;)

Quick update: We're moving colos. The site should be up shortly. Then I'll be back to fielding requests to have content removed all day. If you need a un/pw to surf the site and find it, icq me. I'm happy to give you my own pass. If you have found your content, please issue me the urls.

worst news all day...

Going offshore? ;)

Wow, a lot can happen in a couple of days huh?

I told ya guys they would be toast within a week.

No one ever believes me...:1orglaugh

Old host didn't want to take the heat, and pulled the plug on you?

Nope. :)

Nope, not it.

I think that just about sums it up. At least they're being honest :thumbsup

Moving Servers to a Colo?

That doesnt add up.

Most Host Providers will put in place tempory systems during a move resulting in far less down time, Repropagation of the domain comes with the consideration and timing.

The move schedual is essentially to sloppy.

So my bet is on, Guba not telling you the real deal LesboDojo.

My hat's off to you girl, most people in your position under all this pressure would have run for the hills:2 cents: :thumbsup :thumbsup

LOL best line I've heard in days!

Not to mention that technically GUBA was supposed to have its skin here right now, so you mean they planned a colocation move in the hieght of a major Promotion?

GFYers tend to be pretty stupid but I think you are asking them a bit much.

Thank you for that.
