Recent downtime

[KuRIoS]

Joy oh joy, what a week it has been and quite a few things have happened that we didnt expect to happen at all.

We started of with a database error at our old host TheNYNOC, they decided to take well above 20 hours to respond to our support tickets. After a day we had the data issue solved.

Then a Internet tough guy called Steven Burn decided that our scams section wasn't on his list of what he believes should be on the internet. He contacted thenynoc who shut us down without giving us any notice or chance to remove the content that he complained about. I must say that we are very disappointed with TheNyNOC who believes a stranger with a fancy title over a 2 year valued customer and didnt give us any warning or chance to remove the content in question.

Another Internet tough guy joined the chat, however his incompitence is incredible. He is claiming that accounts.net is a scam site. The site was bought back early this year by Herog. All the claims that the site is a scam site is back from 2007 and what the site may have been at that time is not worth anything, it would be the same as saying that g7w is gay because he might have fooled around in college.
[imgr]http://imglot.com/uploads/rollback-mmowned.jpg[/imgr]The previous owner of accounts.net did not know how to prevent fraud and did indeed sell scammed accounts that were taken back, however this is not the case anymore and there has not been a single case of fraud since Herog took over - The same is the case with www.charz.com

Either way, TheNyNOC opened up access to our server and we received our database, however they would only allow us to retreive our 4 day old backup. This is why some of you have experienced a loss of postcount, reputation or more since we got back up. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about the rollback or the loss of postcount so there is no reason to contact a staff member and complain about it.

On the bright side of things we have moved to our new host. This should solve some of the issues that TheNyNOC was too incompetent to handle and therefore make the site run faster and more stabile.
We will be updating quite some forum software over the next days and weeks so there will be bugs. If you experience a crucial bug please report it to a staffmember instead of creating a thread about it.
We will be having a staffmeeting as soon as all this stuff is over and we hope that it will bring new and exciting additions or changes to MMOwned.

Once again sorry for any inconvenience this have caused you, but it was out of our hands.

If you wish to have a look at the Internet tough guys and the fails from g7w then it is here
mmowned.com -- distributes "phish kits" but is green-lit | WOT Web of Trust

Update: If you, or anyone that you know of can't get on then have them pm their IP to a staffmember, to find YOUR IP go to http://www.ip-adress.com/ or www.myip.dk .
We suffered from a Ddos attack and ur IP might have been banned if u were hammering the site. So please if u hear of anyone who can not get on or if you have trouble then let us know.
