Sat & Sun, 09-11 & 12 Major Outages of the Fora

Is it just me, or have others experienced major outages on the fora?

Yesterday (09-11-2010), I had one in the afternoon for about 3 hours, from ~ 2:00PM PDT, and then most of Sunday afternoon, 09-12-2010, from about 4:00PM PDT to 8:15PM. Today, I also had about 4 log-outs, while posting.

Major upgrades, servers being maintained, gerbils being fed?

Just curious,

Hunt

    Did you check the front page of the forums for maintenance announcements? Did you experience anything that was not covered by the announced maintenance of the login system putting the forums in read-only mode?

    Jochem,

    Can you direct me to the maintenance info, that I obviously missed?

    Only Adobe.com was available, and nothing regarding the fora was active.

    Thank you,

    Hunt

    Hi Hunt

    I recall seeing a message that the fora would be in something like Read Only mode for a few hours. But I thought that was only one of the days. And it was probably only sent to folks that are volunteer moderators.

    It's probably not possible with Jive software. At least with this version. Who knows, maybe a new version would offer such a thing! But my own thoughts are that it's nice we are able to post messages on that forum start page. But it doesn't really do folks much good if they have avenues that take them to a specific section, such as Photoshop.

    What would be neat to see is an overall message that would cascade across all affected fora for things like outages and the like.

    Cheers... Rick
