IN THE EVENT OUR SITE IS UNAVAILABLE
CAN I PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BEG YOU NOT TO GO POSTING THREADS ON OTHER HERP SITES ASKING WHERE ball-pythons.net WENT!?!?!?1
If we are hacked or having problems with the host there is no way any other sites are going to know about it. It's really poor form and in fact could be seen as INSINUATING that someone may have knowledge of it.
Trust me the anxiety and frustration these downtimes cause are a terrific source of frustration for everyone - more so to those involved with trying to fix it and prevent recurrence. Juggling damage control just adds to that pile. No one else has a hand in running the site or is privy to any sort of "behind-the-scenes" info.
Gracias.
Now - as a result of this problem having recurred we're discussing several options and hoping to find one that results in a seamless transition AND allows us to keep features we KNOW you value while at the same time giving us the level of security we need to assure the site is available to you at all times.
Apologies to you all for the downtime.
