Well that is probably because no one is here as things are just now getting back to normal.

This would be as good a time as any to point out that peorth.animenewsnetwork.com always automatically redirects me to peorth.animenewsnetwork.co.uk - which does not exist (same for all the other goddesses).

I guess I'll have to take TRSI up on their Funi sale to reward them for their good deed. Smile

Welcome back. Although I don't post all the time, I do visit the site to check out the news almost daily. I realized how much of a habit it has become for me yesterday when I couldn't get my daily fix. Laughing

Yay, you're back! That was an unfortunate day, especially because I couldn't convince myself to leave the site alone for a few hours in case it fixed itself in the next 5 minutes.

Ah well, at least Anncast will probably only be delayed a day or so.

A welcome back is in order, thank you Rightstuff for your help. Although it's been years since I last got something from you guys ( Comic Party was my last dvd that I remember) it's very kind of you to help us out at ANN. Not only does that show character, but it let me know what was going on.

See I thought the problem was on my end (given that ANN is seldom down) so for a while I was checking out my internet connection and checking out my network as well. As I eventually figured out, nothing was wrong and that is when I read the message Rightstuff so kindly created.

Speaking as a person, not as a subscriber at this time, I just feel bad that Tempest's vacation in Japan had to end early and he had to deal with this issue instead of doing whatever in Japan. But hey, I just like the fact this issue was fixed so quickly and didn't cause any bigger issues.

So once again, thanks ANN for working so hard ( I am guessing around the clock, given how fast this issue was addressed.)

I'm just glad the site is no longer redirecting to Facebook. Maybe in case of future outages the backup can be somewhere not as prone to being a prominent occupant of corporate blacklists.

PS - What splash page?

It is good to see ANN back and running again. Though, on my end, the site is a bit slow but the pages load eventually. Thanks for all your hard work.

While "Congratulations" are due to the hard workers who got ANN back up, I do want to poke a little fun.

"Peorth?" Alright, who's the Oh! My Goddes fan! Or are the ANN servers connected to the System Force on Yggdrasil?

ANN servers have been named after A!MG characters and items for a long time.

(Gotta tell this fact to Kosuke Fujishima in person 12 hours from now)
