Title: RemovedFromGame is down
Post by: Munchor on April 13, 2011, 04:23:04 am

I don't know where else to post this, but I noticed my usebar, Freyday's and Zeda's weren't appearing, then I tried Removed From Game (http://removedfromgame.com/) and it seems to be down.

A lot of GIF's and userbars on Omnimaga will probably be gone until {AP} can put them back up :(

Umm...about half the images in my sig are from RFG and they show correctly as of now

As for the home page, it's been like that for quite a while :P

A while? I'd say a few hours... Cos last night it wasn't like this (GMT 0).

The home page saying "Removedfromgame.com is currently being redesigned and repurposed." has been there for as long as I can remember.

Do the images not show for you?
the one in your sig shows for me...

It doesn't for me ...
I hope they aren't somehow blocked.

(mine also doesn't show up)

Maybe some server crashed and places outside of a certain geographic position can't connect?

http://removedfromgame.com/ (http://removedfromgame.com/) doesn't even display! Perhaps it's a US, non-US thing?

It worked today still for me. Now no more.

The weird thing, maybe not so weird is I can see the icon of RemovedFromGame in the tab icon, but then I get this:

Quote

Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to removedfromgame.com
Try reloading: removedfromgame.­com
Additional suggestions:
Access a cached copy of removedfromgame.­com

Eitherway, I found out that my avatar is only down for some people, and it's not EuropeansVSAmericans, some Europeans like aeTIos can see my avatar, he's in Netherlands. People from Belgium and Portugal can't see it. How weird is that?

Hmm, for some reasons I fear that 1and1 might have suspended AP account. 1and1 is the typical overseller and since AP is using his webspace as file storage and to hotlink files on other sites maybe 1and1 didn't like that, and RFG used like 30 GB of bandwidth a month if I remember, which isn't a lot considering 1and1 claims to give 1.5 terabytes per account, but they're an overseller hosting, so yeah...

I hope not, though. I would hate to see RFG go, although I bet AP could simply move to a different hosting like Surpasshosting, Hostgator or Dreamhost.

Otherwise it might just be that server, because TIMGUL is still up.

For now I simply added the RFG images to a word filter so it won't slow down the site. Let me know when RFG is backup.

@DJ does it work for you, because it worked and still works for me...

EDIT: and who edited the sigs?

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down
Post by: yunhua98 on April 13, 2011, 03:44:37 pm

removedfromgame.com works for me...

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down
Post by: ztrumpet on April 13, 2011, 03:45:45 pm

It works fine for me too.

Edit: Nope, it just failed for me.

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down
Post by: Darl181 on April 13, 2011, 03:46:17 pm

We should make a poll: "Does removedfromgame.com work as of now for you?"

Now there's a ton of messed-up sigs... :(

it doesn't work for me and I made the userbar yesterday D:

Doesn't work for me, and most sig's have malformed bb code in them

About the sigs, they did the same when dragon cave and the internetometer's servers flopped an dslowed down the loading.

but the sites like img.removedfromgame.com load instantly for me, faster than omni really.

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on April 13, 2011, 03:55:30 pm

Yeah that's the same thing I did. Interetometer/Dragcave are still banned here, because they use crappy servers.

RFG will probably be blocked until the problem is resolved. Sorry for the inconveniences. The problem is that having like 30 images waiting forever to load means that OmnomIRC will take like 4 hours to load.

I can ping to the server, but I can't reach the web server.
However, when I use a proxy it works.

I have tried to connect raw to the server at port 80, but even this doesn't work.

http://www.isup.me/removedfromgame.com
It's up for me, and isup.me

EDIT: http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/removedfromgame.com says it's up too

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on April 13, 2011, 05:12:13 pm

Strange. Do you think 1and1 could have banned me and several other people?

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down
Post by: Deep Toaster on April 13, 2011, 07:10:08 pm

Strange, it's down for me...

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down

works for me

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down

Huh, maybe he's switching hosts and waiting for the DNS to propagate in some areas...

Title: Re: RemovedFromGame is down
Post by: Darl181 on April 13, 2011, 07:21:12 pm

the last time he was active was the 9th...fully possible

EDIT: Maybe omni can have its own image uploading?  Or would that be too much...
