What's up with the downtime?
Any explanation for why Me* seems to be dying overnight again?
Why can't I reach Metafilter?
What is being done to curb the continuing amount of times that MetaFilter dies in the arse each day (e.g. when it's inaccessible)? Just wondering.
Are we still getting hit by DoS attacks?
Is Metafilter still getting hammered a la this thread? I notice that just about every day this week, I have been unable to reach mefi at all in the morning time (GMT, say 8am till roughly 11 or noon). I thought it might just be my net connection at work, but my home connection has the same issues whenever it appears to be down.
Are we just undergoing backups or some-such thing at this time? Or does Ireland just disconnect from MeFi every morning for some reason? :)

Comedy of Server Errors
Sorry for the downtime, I was tweaking one small aspect of the server when a comedy of errors ended up with two hours of hair pulling before the server was reachable once again. Everything should be back to normal now.
Why does MetaFilter occasionally just wink out of existence?
I'm fairly new around these parts, so forgive me if this is stupid question, but why does MetaFilter occasionally just wink out of existence? This doesn't seem to happen to most of my other favorite sites.
Is there any way we can help to ensure MeFi uptime?
Is there any way we unfortunate non-Californians can help to ensure that MetaFilter becomes a 24-hour operation once more? [More inside.]
Servers and delfuego moving, expect downtime.
Tomorrow, I’ll shut down all the computers that still live in my old apartment in New York (including the one running this site and the MetaFilter server), drive them up to Boston, and set them all up on the new T1.

Expect downtime. MetaFilter addicts take note. You have been warned. We now return to your regularly scheduled flamewar.

Trouble loading the front page, and being redirected.
I tried to load up metafilter earlier and it was taking a while. I noticed at the bottom of my explorer window it said something like "Opening page http://www.b4ta.com/metafilter" Then the page failed to load entirely. I'm confused.
Outages explained (May 2002)
Yay-- MeFi's back! What happened?
Can't access the front page.
Here's a weird one. I can't view the front page. (More inside)
Blue Hawk Down
"Error Occurred While Processing Request" - Is it just me, or is Metafilter down?
What did other mefiers do during the outage?
I'm curious, what did other mefiers do during the outage? I'm 1/3 through the first volume of a certain story by Proust, although to be fair I've had a lot of free time these past few days.
server down with coldfusion update
Sorry about the server probs this afternoon (more)
Was the server down?
Was it down between 1-2:30 p.m. (PDT)? I found this helpful site in my absence.
Is the IRC channel closed during MeFi shutdowns?
Before MeFi goes off line for its connection upgrade (see side-blog), what's the scoop on an IRC channel, especially after the last shut down? During shutdown, it might ease withdrawal < : ( > and also be interesting in and of itself. And if only I could get Ircle to run on my Mac...
Having problems with the server right now.
ugh. Server is slow/dying for no known reason. I'll be trying to get the new server up as soon as I can this week.
Server Upgrade
Just an FYI: thanks to the enormous generosity of my dad, there will be a new server for MetaFilter, which should be up sometime next week.
Lately the traffic has been killing the box, and memory is always being maxed out.
The new box will have more than double the horsepower in terms of Mhz and RAM. It'll be kickass.
