Website troubles

[elvenpiratelady]

Is anyone else having trouble getting to Stories of Arda? I've been trying to get to it this morning and last night and I'm only getting error messages. I've tried Firefox and IE, and neither work, but it shows up perfectly well on Google search. Any ideas?

"The site may be accessed by going to

http://storiesofard a.com

or

http://stories. storiesofarda. com


Same site, same database, just a slightly different address. You may
post stories, reviews etc without worrying about them disappearing.
For now, update your links for SoA to one of those addresses. The
usual home page (http://www.storieso farda.com) will stay pointing to a
dead IP until we decide what to do or if this new address is our
permanent solution. Feel free to let other readers and authors know
how to access the site. As many of you know, I have been quite sick
and I just don't have the patience or energy to deal with updating
search engines and all the other stuff we'd have to do right now. So
word of mouth will be needed to let people know how to access the site
for now.

Just FYI - the site has been under attack, but they have been 100%
UN-successful. They're just annoying the heck out of us.

If you get an error message, let me know. A lot of very tight code to
prevent hacking has been added recently that could get you a 'You
cannot Pass!' error, and it is possible there might be hard coded
pages looking for the www in the address, which will give you a dead
page. Send me a private email, please, with a screen shot or all the
detail you can provide about what error you received. Screen shots
are best, make sure we can see the URL.

Thanks

Hope that helps :)

Yes it does, thanks for that. I was worried that the entire place had disappeared into the ether.

OMG your icon. Is that a quote from somewhere? Because the other day, I asked someone if something was the angst cherry on the emo cake of their existence, and I would hate to think I was copying someone else...

It's from a metaquote about Eragon, here: http://community.livejournal.com/metaquotes/5880093.html

Icon is free to gank, just credit scatterheart.

Well, I've definitely never heard that before, so I guess I came up with it sort of independently. XD Thanks for the info.
