What was it this time?

So what was the problem this time? SDMB seemed to have been down with a database error (not comm, since I could ping it OK) all morning. Hamsters not fed over the weekend?

FYI, my guess is it was down from about 2:08AM thru 11:37AM Monday, CTT (Chi-Town Time). Not that it matters; I’m just showing off my psychic ability.

Geez, I was hoping that they revamped the servers during the down time, but all still seems slow.

Same problem as before; the database became corrupted.

Jerry was able to patch it and we got back up pretty quickly, considering.

And I was hoping they used the down time to pick out my Christmas gift. A new flying purple pony would really be neat-o. The one I got just last year was ridden hard and put away wet, so it doesn’t fly quite like it used to.

But alas . . .

Sorry about your moldy purple pony, UncleBeer; maybe you need an Invisible Purple Unicorn like I have.

The kids love it; it’s so easy to feed and keep clean.

You mean that during the last meltdown they went shopping for you instead of fixing the problem permanently???
I`m no expert in the matter, but I would imagine that they could buy lots of computer stuff with what one Purple Flying Pony would cost.
