Littleneckhalfshell Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 the last few days I was getting an error message when I tried to access the Pyracy Pub, I tried different browsers, but no mater what I did, it came up as an error message, no other sites I visit were likewise affected. Was it only me that had this problem? What happened, did we get boarded? No Fear Have Ye of Evil Curses says you... Aye,... Properly Warned Ye Be says I
Iron Jon Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I had the same problem over the weekend. This is the first chance I had to sign on today and I got in easy enough... Jonathan Washbourne "Jonathan Washbourne Junr of Bridgwater appeared in court and was ordered to pay £5 fees and charges or be publicly whipped 20 stripes for his abusive and uncivil behaviour to Elizabeth Canaday Late of said Bridgwater by Thrusting up or putting of a skunk under the Cloaths to her Naked Body And then saying he had Done the office of a midwife."

Graydog Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Tis true. I sat thar with rum in hand and all perplexed as it were lookin at an electronic porthole that be all white with an error message, perplexed I be. So, I had a sip of me rum and waited, then had another sip as it were and time went by. Sure enough come Monday and thar be the pub back a shinin through me porthole. If’n it t’werent fer me rum, I might have wasted the weekend, as it were. -Greydog Why am I sharing my opinion? Because I am a special snowflake who has an opinion of such import that it must be shared and because people really care what I think!
Ransom Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 After you've hung around the Pub awhile, you understand that it goes off-line every now and then. Nothing to get drunk over — okay, let me rephrase that — noting to worry about! It always comes back on-line eventually. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

oderlesseye Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Oderlesseye suffered withdrals and panicked..Ran to the phone and called Rumba... -e- mailed Greysail and asked others on MySpace about the pub being down..EEreerrrr ~ Aurrggg alas we rrr here ..free to roam the seas again! http://www.myspace.com/oderlesseyehttp://www.facebook....esseye?ref=nameHangin at Execution dock awaits.

LadyBarbossa Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I t'was hopin' it was just a bit of maintainence. But in that weekend of no Pub... (no warning, either)... I felt some major Pub withdrawls! I missed this Pub, all th' threads, chattin' with ye guys. Of all that's out there (mighty boring compared t' this forum), this is THE hot spot an' th' Best! So glad was able to get onto it t'day. Aye, I was rather bummed out with no Pub all weekend long. ::: sits with Cutter::: Hi, Cutter. Yup, sit with th' rest of us addicted Pubbers. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

Matty Bottles Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I actually got a lot done IRL... "The time was when ships passing one another at sea backed their topsails and had a 'gam,' and on parting fired guns; but those good old days have gone. People have hardly time nowadays to speak even on the broad ocean, where news is news, and as for a salute of guns, they cannot afford the powder. There are no poetry-enshrined freighters on the sea now; it is a prosy life when we have no time to bid one another good morning." - Capt. Joshua Slocum
MadL Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Ahrrr, I took th' forums for me'self for all th' rest o' ye be drink'n too much o' me rum 'n spill'n good powder all o'er the deck... ....but then the moderators came 'n made me gi'e it back ~All skill be in vain if an angel pisses down th' barrel o' yer flintlock!

Rumba Rue Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 I discovered first thing Saturday morning the Pub was off-line...whatever...I was kind of hoping maybe it was being worked on....well we can only hope.... I went to the movies and get home to a message from Oderlesseye asking me what's going, in a bit of a panicky voice. Ya sure, like I'm gonna know..... I know nothing and you can't get it out of me. Pub withdrawl, do we need to start a support group?
Littleneckhalfshell Posted June 3, 2008 Author Posted June 3, 2008 Ok, so I guess no one knows what happened, but I am glad that it was not just me missing the pub. I know it has happened before, but it is still a bit of withdrawal when it happens. No Fear Have Ye of Evil Curses says you... Aye,... Properly Warned Ye Be says I
MadL Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Pub withdrawl, do we need to start a support group? Ye Bet'cha!! 'n There Bet'er Be PLENTY O' RUM There Bet'er!! ...oh, 'n none o' that pansy boy wat'er down stuff neither I say! ~All skill be in vain if an angel pisses down th' barrel o' yer flintlock!

Captain_MacNamara Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Yeah... I may not post much, but I *read* alot I nearly went insane, hoping that the Pub wasn't gone forever... So I likewise sent an email, and thankfully yesterday was able to get on! Captain of the Iron Lotus It is the angle that holds the rope, not the size of the hole.
Dutchman Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 well folks.. i can only think of one possible answer..... the pub took a break and attended blackbeard.... coincident- i think not!!!
MadL Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 They should do like ISPs do; whenever the forums are down they could just send each o' us a PM so we will be notified, this way no one will panic. When I worked tech support for Earthlink they used to send all customers an e-mail to let them know the mail servers were down and being 'diligently worked on', 'n the message would thank everyone for their patience 'n request they do not call Tech Support. ~All skill be in vain if an angel pisses down th' barrel o' yer flintlock!

Captain Emerald Shaunassey Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Yup, noticed the pub was down but, was on my way out the door to St. Louis for a great weekend of fun (despite the heat and humidity) so didn't worry. It was back when I got back so things are good. After the trouble Renaissance Forums had with hackers (and very nearly loosing that board!) I was a bit worried. Heck, I miss my daily romps through these boards and reading what ya scurvy lot be up to! Indeed, this pub be a welcome harbor in a life of stormy seas (mundane world in general) To One an All at the Pub! Emerald Captain Emerald Shaunassey O' The Salty Kiss www.TheLadiesoftheSaltyKiss.com
