Main Site Down?

Post by crisspy » Wed Oct 16, 2002 10:29 pm

...at risk of asking the obvious, is silentPCreview currently down?

"Session initialisation failed" is all I can get from the homepage.

A PostNuke / php error. I saw other mentions in the topic about Rusty's (stupedously fantabulous) system, generated too much Slashdot traffic?

Good luck:)

Yeah same here too, not sure exactly how the whole internet server stuff works, but maybe it needs the traffic from slashdot to die down a bit before Mike can get the server running again? Any way im sure it'll be up again soon!
