It's been about a week since the site has been back up since the host's hard drive crash, and sadly, nothing has really changed or happened. All problems that I mentioned before in the last update still exist now, with the exception of my e-mail. As I was typing an e-mail to the host asking about these issues, e-mail suddenly appeared from my addy here. So my e-mail account does work again, though I must ask everyone not to bother e-mailing me or Bob or Tiff if it has anything to do with the status of the server. I'll update here if anything does happen, the two of them won't find out much quicker than everyone here (eg, if they're online as I'm typing the update), so you're just wasting our, and your, time if you e-mail us regarding that. Even though I e-mailed the host Saturday night, I have yet to recieve a response from them or anything I asked about get done on its own. I understand they're having a rough time right now, but I believe I shouldn't have to wait more than 24 hours for a response inquiring about a service I pay for, 48 being REALLY nice. So until I hear something from them on anything, no subdomains, no forums, and no Bob and Tiff touching the site (though they can make me do their HTML stuff for them).
Even with all this going on, I won't stop updating the site myself when something comes up, and honestly, that's why I'm updating now. You all know me well enough that I can't make an update where I don't add something new to the site in some way now, don't you?
Over the past couple weeks, I've been keeping my eye on a certain situation. This would normally go right to the news section, but I wanted to make sure this was valid by having other people report that a certain thing did happen. Well, I've heard nothing but "it's really fixed" in some way or form, so I bring you a new news article, in which you can learn how to get the glitch in episode 25 fixed.
