Mass Electric continues its unbroken history of just pulling the plug on our power supply for maintenance whenever the hell it feels like it, without prior warning. Despite the fact that we're a business. Despite the fact that we're a an ISP. Despite the fact that they've got ten thousand screaming messages from us to NEVER DO THIS.

There's just nothing like showing up for work and finding fully half the servers dead. One of which, of course, is Trickster. I've got it back to the point where mail is working again, and user directories are not history, but it looks like the secondary drive may have actually fried, and I cannot get websites back up and running at this point.

Fuck Me, too.

Oh man, that sucks. We have this problem too, mainly because we're in the "historic" downtown area of a small town (with all the antique shops) in an old building, and the city will just not get it into their tiny little worthless brain that We Are Up Here. They turn the power off and crash the servers and also turn the water off without warning.

Dude, go home and have one of those hard ales in the fridge! You are amazing and we all appreciate you to pieces.

Also? A hug.

I know this is so not funny, but right after I'd read your post, I went to get lunch and they had the radio blaring in the background, playing... the Bee Gees' The Lights Went Out in Massachusetts.

I can't imagine having a situatin like that -- it's inexcusable. And I'm so sorry that you have to deal with it. ::sympathy glances::

Oh, good God. I'm so sorry

::sympathy::

I keep a full backup of my own site, but don't have anyone else's archived, alas...
