GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Downtime

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Mar 5 2008, 10:50 AM

Hello,

We had a server crash today morning European time.

The explanation we have got is that the server company moved the rack which contains the US GMC server (and something went wrong). We did not get any response from it and could not perform a remote reboot. My apologises for this.

All accounts will be prolongued one day to compensate this.

Kristofer

Don't know if this has to do with the server crash, but the comments are missing in the lessons and the "Search/My bookmarks" is now at the bottom of the page.

is it like this for anyone else, or is it just me?
