Downtime..

Maybe habbox needs to look at cheaper options if they can't afford to keep on top of bills

Cheaper? Nothing wrong with free software .

Apache is fine if configured correctly.

Some software is good free, but sometimes you do have to pay a little to get something professional.

I don't come on for a week and the site goes to **** lol, was the site down for long? i checked it last night and nothing showed up so i was thinking what the hell happened.

Just to join in with the fun JIM WE HATE U, JIM YOU NEED TO SORT OUT YOUR LIFE, JIM YOU HAVE BIGGER PRIORITY'S ONLINE. Na but seriously i would like to see someone else have access to the servers but at the same time if Jim can maintain it a little better and get admins to contact him as soon as the site reaches another hurdle it should be fine, as much as i like to trust people online and as trustworthy as (a)gms may be, **** happens, people change, people turn into mad *******s 'cause they think it's cool, take oli for an example (lol but you get what i mean). I'd prefer to be safe than sorry.

LOL. True in the corporate world, but definitely not true in this case. You can run a site very reliably on 100% free (& open source) software. Considering Apache and Linux both run the vast majority of websites on the internet, it's reliability has been proven time and time again.

To those asking why Jin is still around / why he doesn't get someone else to do it: when you find someone else very trusted and very respected at Habbox who wants to pay out of pocket every month to run it, let me know

An odd post for you Considering it was an easily avoidable situation, where by just letting e-mails and notifications reach whoever receives them could of solved the problem, especially when it appears to of been going on for two months - so goodness knows why someone has managed to hide these important notifications for so long. Additionally to that, many members here seem to know what is going on. Yes, Jin is good for paying out of pocket to keep Habbox afloat, but he could do himself so many favours if he fixed these server issues which cripple and ruin the Habbox community on a constant basis. Trust and respect are one thing, but they don't keep problems at bay.

Besides, no one seems to challenge Habbo over these disgusting work practices they have in place. Has anyone pushed them for an answer over VIP again? If I was you I would just do it, Habbo get a lot out of Habbox and their arguments for closing websites just seems like fighting talk that won't go anywhere. You clearly state they own the Habbo name and images, and you're not making money out of Habbo as it goes straight back to them - you do Habbo related events and competitions which go straight back towards Habbo and their evil organisation. You're doing them a service, not the other way round I'd push for some answers at least, and set the record straight as Habbo clearly have a lot of seriously imbred individuals working for them - the key is to talk slowly and down to them, judging by the way you have to talk to their moderators and staff

If this is what happens when Jin is out in a place with no internet for a short while then what would happen if he:

-Died?
-Went into a Coma?
-Got caught up in some sort of mahem and was arrested?

A site of this size should not be reliant on one person.

... and it was down just now for at least half an hour. Nice.

YEAH GUYS

what if Jin dies

do you want him to be responsible for the mass suicide which will inevitably happen if the site goes down PERMANENTLY!!!
