| Hello everyone, First off, I'm glad you're back and didn't give up on Airsoft Allies! As I'm sure most of you have noticed, for the past several days Airsoft Allies has not been functional. Most likely, you were redirected to a Godaddy.com parked webpage. When a member first brought this unfortunate setback to my attention, I immediately took action to locate and fix the problem. Unfortunately for all of us, it was completely out of my hands and no quick fix. My website hosting company, who's been great through this mess, was trying to switch servers in order to give their customers (me and, indirectly, all of you) better service. In their attempt to give us better security and website "uptime" by switching to newer, more powerful servers, they ended up having to revert back to their old servers because of the mess the new servers were causing. The servers they attempted to switch to weren't compatible for whatever reason, and the techs at my hosting company did their best to restore us using the old servers as quickly as possible. I've been assured by the company that this matter won't happen again, and that they'll soon be making an investment into new, more reliable servers that will actually work this time. As upset that I am that this happened, I am happy to be back and I hope all of you didn't miss Airsoft Allies too much. I GREATLY appreciate your patience in this situation! Any comments or questions you have for me about this issue either post as a reply to this thread or in a PM to me. Again, I greatly apologize for this inconvenience and I have plans on a few upcoming contests to make up for it

| I don't mean to sound dramatic, but this morning I clicked on my bookmark for this site, saying to myself "If AA is still down, I'm removing this bookmark," and to my amazement, you were back online. I was afraid this site was lost forever without explanation, but I'm sure glad I was wrong. | |

I understand your frustration. It took WAY too long to get our site back up and running; I was afraid we'd lose members as a result. Hopefully everyone comes back and doesn't make the mistake you almost did Glad you're all here! | |
