Catastrophic Data Loss
There was a Major failure of a RAID in the datacenter that hosts like 1/2 the furry fandom. Extent of data loss is not known at this time. Down time is not known at this time, and depends on if I have to re-write websites from scratch (Which will totally suck the big one). The status of things like running FPS live this sunday are still up in the air, as it may end up getting cancelled, but it too early to tell. The list of domains that I own that are currently affected:
thefoxden.com
floridafurs.com
pawpet.org
pawpet.tv
fursuit.org
fursuit.com
furryhams.org
ppmp.info
megaplexcon.org
osceolaares.com
osceolacountyares.org
All mail lists and mail to these domains are also down.
Also affected by this: lion.anthrochat.org and all of irc services. So popular irc channels like #fursuit are affected by this.
And before everyone asks.. No there was not a backup, since this is supposed to be a RAID, which is supposed to be data security.
The people at the data center are working on it, trying to put the bombshell back together from the exploded fragments. Hopefully I will get a status report soon :(
