In order to compensate for the recent outage we will credit our paying customers as follow:

  • Each snipe membership will be extended by 15 days.
  • Universal credit accounts will each receive 100 credits and expiration date extended by 10 days.

    We will process these compensations sometime next week

    Our web site is now fully operational.

    Around 12 pm eastern US time on April 02 2007 we experienced a hardware failure. As a result our websites and mailservers could not be reached from outside. After the hardware is successfully replaced we came back on line around 13:30 pm eastern US time on April 05 2007.

    We would like to apologize all our customers for the interruption in service. Because all our data are stored on multiple redundant servers each of which have redundant disks, we experienced no data loss. However the scheduled jobs such as snipes and feedback operations were lost during our downtime.

    We will compensate our paying customers for the lost service. We will make another separate announcement on this page about this compensation.

    We will also make improvements to our infrastructure so that we will experience no downtime should a similar hardware failure occurs in the future. Making these improvements will have no effect on our customers.

    We would like to thank all our customers for their patience and continued support.
