Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Fyron have you heard anything from your hosting service as to when SE.net will be back up and running?

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

No.

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Sorry man. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif Just when it was beginning to get interesting too. I shall drop the subject and not speak of it again.

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Lol, its not quite that grim spaceempires.net will be coming back its just hard wading through the crap that is most web hosts to find that perfect one.

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

If I may enquire
What exactly is wrong with it?

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Fyron hasn't heard from the host yet what the problem is - almost two days later - hence the pending move. However, feel free to visit my websites in lieu of SE.net!

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

LOL, exploit it kwok! Exploit!

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

I bet Kwok destroyed Fyrons webhost to boost traffic to his site http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Of course he did, we must inform the EEE now

Of course, I might as well chip in
Fyron, if you are looking for another host, don't forget to check mine out (ie. the one I work for)

It was a precision strike with some High-Energy Magnfier III's (+30 to hit) to take out the server. Overall, the plan is starting to work as yesterday ended the current downhill slide for visits. Mo ha ha ha!

Nah, not really. Although starting to miss the forums at SE.net - have lots of interesting stuff to post in the forums!

Content loss is going to hurt us again though. Last time we have a major melt down of Fyrons Host, he lost a years worth of info. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Must be hosted on 'nix!

(Let the flames begin!!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif)

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Must be backed up on 12 servers all around the world (including secret orbital data havens) every hour, encrypted and immediately burned to DVDs. That's what I call "fault-tolerant system".

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

I have found evidence Kwok is indeed behind the destruction of SpaceEmpires.net. I have found the motive!

From his website:

Then 5 days later, SE.net goes offline! I'm on to you Kwok!

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Encryption means you not only need the data, you also need the key.

Burning it plaintext onto the lunar regolith with a Giant DVD laser, on the other hand...

...Will get you Hammered By A Giant Rodent...

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Ahh But Kwok has openly denied this attack http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Maybe Kwok got a secret third party involved. He seems to smart and devious to go for a direct strike http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

"Kwok denies truth" (c) some SF series.

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

Word around the Spaceport is that Fyron is using his Resource Reclamation Plant to recover his site - perhaps it might return shortly?

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

The first parts of a fixed SpaceEmpires.net are peeking through www.spaceempires.net

Re: Any Word On SE.net\'s Return?
 

A third party involved in the attack against SE.net? There was no French connection here, really! That Fyron uses phrases like "Vive la balle!" should be dismissed as being inconsequential too. My leave in the past few days also bears no link with the attacks against SE.net.

So I really did nothing to bring down SE.net, and Fyron along with it (not even in memory of that cursed-by-the-Balance contract he made me sign). Honest here! Who said I was too eager to defend myself? I am just saving time for the people who will handle the case, by pointing out I am *not* involved in any way whatsoever.

Now Kwok, if you will please send that check? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
