Nexopia outage
"FIXED"
No, no, we're not shutting down. We had a problem with one of our servers.

I've prepared two explanations as to what happened.

EXPLANATION 1:

The internet is a bunch of tubes. Nexopia has many tubes, but sometimes these tubes get clogged. Last night one very important tube was completely backed up and burst (the ol' blue screen of death). Our handy tube repairman replaced it with a much stronger and bigger tube and restored the normal flow of the internets through it.

EXPLANATION 2:

At some point in the evening one of the servers that holds user information had a hardware failure. Our development team was alerted and by 1:30 in the morning, a redundant server had been put in place.

As you can tell, the site is back to normal now. All of your messages, posts, picture and profiles should still be intact, and we are sorry for the temporary loss of service.

Have a great weekend!
