  MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
Well the message changes from time to time, from "MOCpages is experiencing very high traffic right now. Please try again in a few minutes." to weird database errors. Either way, I haven't been able to get to MOCpages for a month (maybe longer). I'm (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish.html, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) Odd, I only noticed the 'very high traffic' one. (...) Yup. And *now* I'm getting worried. You're right, it's been a month. I haven't mailed Sean Kenney about it, so I haven't (...) The way I see it, (and I've mentioned this before): It's a (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish.html, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) It has been remarked on in passing and I've certainly noticed it. I did not realise it was solidly never working though. (...) Not directly. I'm wondering if a note directly to Mr. Kenney might be productive?? (...) Hints on that appreciated, (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) For what it's worth, Sean (MOCpages creator/webmaster) recently got married and is currently on an 80 days around the world type honeymoon. He's probably somewhere in Asia at the moment. Or Europe. Or Australia. Lucky fool! Anyway, I'd bet as (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) Good point. I'll go further, even donors shouldn't complain!(1) But then I'm a donor and I'm not complaining, just asking. Just like Jason is, I think, wondering what's up. 1 - it's a donation, not a contract (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish.html, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) I had noticed some passing remarks as well, but a search on lugnet did not reveal a thread talking about it. I've been checking MOCpages three of four times a day for about a week. I never got through. (...) I tried an email to his (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) Still, I think at least they have more of a right to complain than those who aren't paying... erm... DONATING at all! Legoswami (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish.html, FTX)

(...) His getting married sounds familar, but I didn't know about the trip around the world. Sounds like a lot of fun. Thanks. Jason Spears | (URL) BrickCentral> | (URL) MichLUG> | (URL) CLB> (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) Thanks! Does that get you past the front page? I got my front page that way but none of my creation pages (where the real content is that I'd want to save... all that witty(?) repartee!) were returned. Searching for the creation page titles (...)

  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) Well for the record, I was asking not complaining. Saying I might move my contest else where is a statement. Right now all the descriptions of my mocs on brickshelf are inaccessible. Moving that elsewhere is just a necessity, if MOCpages won't (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) Ditto. Thanks Jason. BTW Lar mocpages has an option by which it mails you copies of every page you make. Too bad the site itself isn't working, or you could've had all that stuff backed up by now. All the pages on my site have been backed up (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) Yes, I know. That was just *my* take on it. Sorry if you thought I was criticizing you; I wasn't. That was never my intention. Legoswami (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) Um, DUH! I have those all saved, somewhere, I think... Thanks for the reminder. (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish, FTX)
 
  Re: MOCpages Down for the Count?
 
(...) (URL) I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you two. Maybe I'm cooler? Check the link above, it grabs some of my mocpages just fine. Maybe google hasn't cached your individual pages yet? Actually, I'm not sure that it has all of mine either. (...) (20 years ago, 11-May-05, to lugnet.publish, FTX)

  I have never, ever, ever been able to get to MOCpages.
