Did their server just go down? I was on Rat Chat, tried to start a new topic, and now I get a "Cannot find server" message. Eric's store page in OK, but the forum and SR home site don't work. :confused:
 
This is the error message I get:

Could not perform buffered print to '/home/jerrybus/swampratknifeworks-www/ubb/cache-LVETUEU3/ubb_files/counter/2007-09-dynamic.cgi'. The disk is out of space - I was unable to write a new file. Please ask the administrator to contact the web hosting provider. The exact error returned by the operating system is: No space left on device
 
This happened to me early on Saturday but I thought I had it fixed. I'll have to call our hosting provider and see what is happening.

Thanks for the heads up guys

Eric

Eric, you guys really need to hire a professional to consult with and/or manage your internet presence. Rat Chat has been down for 2 days now, and your store needs to be integrated with your main website. You web presence is scattered over four sites...

I understand that SwampShack is a different deal, however, IMHO the information at SwampShack should be integrated into you main site, wherever your main site is.

Propective customers come to RatChat and don't know where to buy product. Prospective customers want to do research on past product and don't know where to go. You guys may not care a hoot about this situation, but frankly it's all very confusing to new users/customers and it makes you fine folks look like a bunch of amateurs. Those of us who have been around a while know you're preeminent professionals. However, I suspect that -- while some of those who are new to SRKW product may be patient and stick around to figure out what is going on -- most get confused, frustrated, and leave.

There is no reason why a pre-eminent maker of hard-use knives should have such a disjointed and undependable web presence.
 
The whole dis-jointedness of the Busse group's web presensce is like our version of a secret handshake. A potential new customer has to really try to make sense of it. :grumpy:
