Sorry For The Site Outage

[ChrisCavalier]

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to say we apologize for any inconvenience the site outage from yesterday and part of today may have caused. I know a number of you look forward to reading the Game Used Universe site and connecting with the members of the community here each day.

The problem is this instance was a hardware issue (not in the operating system) and we needed outside people to help identify the problem and resolve it. That is why it took some time to get the site back online.

Thank you for all your patience during the outage and we hope you continue to enjoy everything on the Game Used Universe site. We also thank you for the privilege of allowing us to assist you with your collecting needs.

Sincerely,
Chris

Would like to mention that the New Posts link at the top of the page is coming up with a database error message for me. Not sure if others are having the same problem. I do appreciate the work that everyone puts in to keep the site up.

Far worse things happen every day. The site you have put together and maintain is a privilege for all of its members, and I can't imagine anyone being inconvenienced. Cheers!

Chris, thanks so much for the site. If it weren't for GUU, I don't think I'd have ever really gotten into the game used memorabilia hobby. I have learned a ton here and learn more every week.

Re: Sorry For The Site Outage

Hey Guys,

Thank you so much for your feedback. In an industry that sometimes gets a bad rap for the unscrupulous activity that makes the news, it is really great to have a community like this one made up of well intended people who are willing to share information to help collectors. It is a pleasure to see and experience.

In addition, we have looked into the issues referenced in this thread and appears to be residual from the hardware issue we experienced previously. As such, we will be doing some work that will require the site to be down for a little while. We are scheduling to do this tomorrow night/Friday morning at around 2:00 AM EST so it hopefully won't affect too many people. Hopefully the work we do will correct the current issues.

-Chris

Re: Sorry For The Site Outage

Chris, I check the site on a daily basis…no problem from my end. Do see if you can fix as stated below some glitches still active like clicking on "new posts" and it will not take you cleanly to these.

Again, thank you for all that you do!

Tom

Re: Sorry For The Site Outage

Not sure if this is related or not. I can't seem to search any of the forums. Every time I try to search I get an error. I thought maybe it was just me or something, but both my home computers and my office computer can't seem to search.

My, my how times have changed. Three years ago this thread would have been ugly.
