No, it's up and has been for me for most of the day (but I have an awesome DNS server). images/smilies/wink.gif

Hey folks, we had a major outage this morning at 2:00 AM. To make a long story short a clerical error at our DNS provider took down our server for 7 hours. We spent all night scrambling to clean stuff up, and even temporarily tried setting up anew DNS provider, which ended up being a mistake as now there are some false domain records floating around that need to work themselves out of the network. Anyhow. To make a long story short, we're back up and you may see some wierdness over the next 48 hours as network fleshes out the domain changes.

But you're welcome to stay anyway! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Try clearing out your cache, or resetting your Net connection.

You'll have to wait for your ISP's DNS cache to update (it can take up to 24-48 hours from when they made the change ~12 hours ago).

Either that, edit your hosts file and manually define streetfire.net and forums.streetfire.net as 64.34.180.75 and videos.streetfire.net as 209.9.234.13. Google will tell you how to do that. images/smilies/wink.gif

Just don't forget to remove the entires in a couple days, otherwise if they change their IPs, their DNS update will be overwritten by your hosts file and you won't be able to access the site in the future if they ever do that.

Whatever, we're better than Streetfire anyway. Apparently, everybody on there is 11 with dyslexia...except you, of course! images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

BerserkerCatSplat · December 17th, 2006, 1:07 AM

It's just the video comments section of Streetfire that I find so terrible. Seriously, it's where intelligence goes to die.
