justclaws Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 Hello, As I'm helping AtariHQ sometimes, I know what's wrong here. If you prefer a technical explanation it is this... Somehow, the hosting company has screwed up the (UNIX) UID permissions on the server, and the AtariHQ no longer corresponds to that of the files, or vice versa. The scripts and the data are all just fine, but until the hosting company sorts out their mistake, then the server will not be able to execute the posting scripts... If you prefer JI-II style paranoia and conspiracy theory it is this... Government forces working with leading Jaguar developers have decided to take the unprecedented move of hacking the AtariHQ servers so that nobody else can flame them, or advertise their competing products, say insiders. Others claim that Underground forces have taken the board down in order to stop publicity for popular new Jaguar products. Insiders working with Sony and Nintendo deny links with them, but they would do wouldn't they. If you prefer a ridiculous by science fiction explanation it is this... Due to the very large number of flames posted to JI-II in the past the temperature of the servers providing the service has risen to such a level that the tachyon based cooling systems which control the nuon emitters for new messages have broken down. Once a new supply of Vogon quantum limiters arrives, this will be fixed. Whatever you believe, check back soon, they should fix it soon... Regards, JustClaws.

When you get them fixed, care to point them my way? I'd kill for a nice N501. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get them fixed, care to point them my way? I'd kill for a nice N501. There's a guy selling N501's on ebay (around 20 of them) for $79.00 plus $10.00 S&H. I think that's a lot easier than killing someone. He says they are sealed and new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I don't like is that it wasn't sent in a box for shipping. The label was put right on the dvd player box and shipped. The only reason I didn't like this, was because I keep my boxes and want them to look pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got mine back when they first came out from Best Buy, and they shipped it to me with a label pasted on the box. Sometimes they ship stuff to the stores from the warehouses that way too and you get a shipping label on the box from that and you bought it at the store!

+Sauron Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 I'll agree, this forum is much better than JI2 any day of the week. It does help that AA is moderated... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Harlow Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 I know I am a realative newbie at this message board but what the hell is JI2...?? another message board, one that doesn't have a nice friendly atmosphere... i got that... but to be honest I didn't know many more boards existed. How many are there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sauron Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 JI2, or Jaguar Interactive 2, was the main hub for Jag enthusiasts for many years. I've been on it for over 5 years myself, while some people were on the original Jaguar Interactive message board several years before that. It's main problem is that it's mostly been unmoderated, which allowed all kinds of trolls and flamewars to linger on well past their expiration date. Since this board is pretty well moderated, there generally isn't ever a problem here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrant Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Thunderbird, I've contacted that guy before, but he refuses to ship outside of the US except to Canada. Oh, and sorry about being somewhat harsh about the scatbox, was having a bad day, and.. well, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justclaws Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Hello, Jaguar Interactive II is back, the hosting company has fixed the CGI-BIN operation, but unfortunately not the FTP access so AtariHQ cannot do any updates, but it's most of the way! Cheers, JustClaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory DG Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Hmm... Not willing to start another thread on this, but JI2 doesn't seem to work for me. Goes to: http://www.us.net/html/search/now.htm . I've seen it go down before, but never a redirect... I wonder what's going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Well, a Whois lookup revealed this tidbit: Database last updated on 26-Sep-2003 11:52:17 EDT. So, guess it was time to re-register the name? Still, an interruption in service really blows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 I don't think the domain expired, it appears to be valid through March 2005. As far as I know you can only purchase domain names in one year increments. Could be that DNS information was updated, maybe they're moving the site to a new server? ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian R. Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 For what it's worth... It's about 8:20 p.m. Friday, Sept. 26 - Atari HQ, JI2 and the classic message board are all not working. www.atarihq.com takes me to that ridiculous White Shephered domain And both message board go to the US Search or whatever the hell it is. Since I "moderate" the classic Atari forum (as in I delete all the porn and spam) I'd like to know what's up myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
