down for me

 

[ronthai]

Well he said a few pages ago no drinking during the weekend because those are the busy days for him.
Guess we all could use a few beers, since there is now nothing else to do for at least 15 hours.

Down for me aswell (in the UK)

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@filemates.com.........

...(yawn).

Dear FM to create goodwill you should add the days/hours lost during downtime to the premium account holders. You do not have to by law but it might help you retain the premium subscribers you have.

yay

 

[maniakasl]

I open with http://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/http://filemates.com
But this is not normal... FIX mate!!!

 

[ananisikim]

cause they are up now

 

[FileMates]

The server is completely down until we solve a harmfull attack. Sorry for this but hackers tried to violate the server and the hosting company automatically stopped the server for protection.

 

[maniakasl]

Who wants so much to harm someone... and the question is for what?
For money all is for money...
Invest more money mate for better protection!
We hope the problem can be solved soon

We hope to have BACKUP

 

[ananisikim]

if you check google, you will see hackers started to record ddoss attacks as movie file and share them in youtube
as power show.

 

[FileMates]

Do not worry about data... All data is saved and backup exists. No data is lost at all...

The site will be online soon. Premium memberships will be extended for 7 days too.

---------------------------

I hope the site will be up and running again in the next 72 hours.

 

[maniakasl]

thanks in advance

fruitful work

 

[minhete]

Good to know that filemates, thanks for taking a severe method but if this is what is going to make the website stable then do it!

Good work

 

[FileMates]

Yes guys. I know taking it down for that long is not the best. But it must be down until it is safe.

This is exactly - to the letter - what transpired at FileDefend.

It was not a pretty sight.

When you put the server down, is it possible to show an alternative homepage on which you tell your users what's going on ?

Also, please put on it and mail users that you will extend the premium accounts. Extending is a noble thing, but has no use if nobody knows about it :rofl:

 

[ronthai]

Thanks FileMates, Good luck with the hard work ahead of you these coming days.
Don't forget to also take some time for yourself otherwise you will become to stressed out.
Do take a little time and have a drink with some friends. You are only human and need to relax also.

 

[minhete]

Yes, please mass email all your users warning them of whats happening

Thanks

Yes Mates, I agree with minhete, you need to send out emails alerting users of whats going on, what you're doing about it and when it will be fixed.

Likewise, any alerts should go out to all Premium user - and all Registered users.

Εντάξει.

After last system attacks we have to shut the system down for a while...We will be back soon. All premium accounts will be extended for 7 days so that you do not lose premium time you paid.
