Was there an explanation for the outage?
« on: June 11, 2009, 07:30:30 AM »
Just wondering. 
Haven't been subscribed to many services that didn't post a reason behind a service outage in a news area or on the front page of their site. 

I did read on another thread that there were storms...again, I must say I've never subscribed to a service that didn't have redundancy on top of redundancy...

Were there larger issues at hand (Like the ISP got zapped?)

I can't imagine that Hitech doesn't have a serious backup system install. 

?????

I doubt Hitech has his own private internet

I think the OP just wants an official news announcement when the servers go down.  Nothing unreasonable about that.

Although the weather is likely to blame, they do have one of their best techs looking into the situation...
