Default Errors Today / Technical Problems

Its seems all the posts I made yesterday (January 5) have been deleted. Also I cannot seem to access my profile, inbox, or anything right now, I'm getting the same error page telling me to refresh but I refresh and it gives me the same page.

A few hours ago the site was totally inaccessible.

For now it seems like we lost the last 24 hours. So I figure people are working on it. It's best to be patient and see when it resolves itself...

It seems like that EC is having some technical difficulties at the moment. But hopefully an admin will come online soon. I have contacted one of the admins. Just hang in there for now and things will be fixed soon.

Thanks for your patience!

Ah, that explains it. I sent you a message about this, Mirko, but you can it then.

Hello everyone!

EC staff just wanted to let you know that there is a possibility that once the database is fixed a post-rollback will occur whereby all posts made today (or for the duration of the technical difficulties) will be deleted once the site is restored.

That said, please do create a thread or post if you need help/advice/support. Don't let the technical difficulties hold you back! Maybe cut and paste your post into a word processing programme so that you have it in case it is lost after the post-rollback has occurred.

Sorry, I can't give you a definite time or a time frame but EC staff are hoping that the problems will be fixed within the next 24 hours or so. We will post updates as we get new information and we will let you know when the problems are fixed.

If you want to hang on to the ideas/things you post, we suggest that you copy your posts into a word processing programme so that you can just cut and paste it again once the database problems/technical issues have been fixed. There is a chance that some of the posts/threads created today or within the time period in which the technical difficulties persist will be deleted once everything is restored.

We are really sorry about any inconveniences that the technical problems might be causing you. But we are hoping that things will be fixed fairly soon.
