    Post Apolyton is back

    Around January 28, 2012 01:00 GMT+1 Apolyton crashed down. The reason was that we ran out of space. Looks like you uploaded to many big attachments. Well, I freed some space. Well, it took me some time to figure this out. And probably it didn't help that I was a bit sick. We were shortly back on Monday, but had problems with posts displaying, we restored the site from a recent backup, so your noise from Monday is gone. But well, we still have the search index.

    We, will soon take off the site again to upgrade to vBulletin 4.1.10. But this time it would only take 1 or 2 hours.

    What a balls up? Do you not monitor critical indicators of system performance?

    Hmmm, this is not a critical business app. It's a hobby that is far from a money maker. We're lucky to get what we get in terms of effort.
    Thanks guys.

    I would still have thought it provides a reasonable source of income, even if just to maintain costs. No one wants to make a loss

    You would be wrong. Unless things have changed dramatically in the last couple of years.
