Being down so long without news doesnt sounds good.

Guys,some news are in Rwg from onzenuub yesterday....;)

" The server's owners are moving to a new data center. Construction work in the area severed a cable and time to repair would take months.

Should be back up in a cpl days."

I'm sure it was some kind of emergency server change. Not sure how they could notify us really, I'm sure it will be back up soon.

Normally if something catastrophic happens to a site you have to

1) Find out what happened
2) Decide if you want to switch servers or not
3) Move the entire site / DB to new server
4) Test said server
5) Change DNS records
6) Wait 24 hrs for the domain to resolve to the new server

So I can see why it has taken a few days, but I'm sure it'll be back up soon. Yes I'm itching too, no offense to RWI but I'm a repgeek personally :p

Well, you shouldn´t worry too much cuz RWI is always online.

There are a few things over there that isn´t quite right.

You guys worry too much. Just browse around here, look at the pretty watches, engage in a little mindless chatter, and all will be right with the world.

RWI always welcomes everyone. When other sites go down for some reason or another, this site even make new sections just to accommodate the other members. RG will be back soon, in the meantime, browse around here mates. :lol:

Thanks man! I joined RWI almost 4 years ago, a few months after I joined Repgeek, but I just don't seem to make it over here that often. I'll have to spend more time here now.

A data center down for months because of a severed cable? :thinking: Someone would be up for 10s of millions in compensation.
