ghost of miles Posted September 21, 2003 Report Posted September 21, 2003 Mike is in the process of restoring the site. Apparantly some hacker [may he/she roast in the eternal fires of Hell] gained access and screwed up the site. It took Mike and his associcates SEVEN YEARS to create and establish the site and a few hours for some miscreant hacker to wreck it, just because they could. The "Birthday" thread on the site is, apparantly, gone, as is everything after the middle of May. Damn. Also, I can't log on at all, because I "don't have permisssion" to do so and my e-mail address is already in use by another poster [ME]. I've e-mailed Mike and haven't heard from him yet. As for hackers, so revered by many; they are a plague!!!!! Patricia, Hope you still re-visit this jazz province from time to time, even if it is admittedly a little guysy. I've enjoyed your contributions and will look for you as "still life" on AAJ. Quote
patricia Posted September 21, 2003 Report Posted September 21, 2003 Claude, Of course you're right, but I had to vent. AAJ is back up and the only thing to do is to carry on. The jazz boards are so valuable and so informative for all of us that it just burns my butt that whole topics threads are gone. It isn't the end of the world as we know it. Quote
ghost of miles Posted September 21, 2003 Report Posted September 21, 2003 So have all memberships registered since late May been voided? Bummer... I joined in early March, around the time of the BNBB debacle, but I noticed that several people who came later no longer show up on the member list. I'm sure they can just re-register--even if it necessitates a different handle--but it does seem a bit odd over there, as if the past four months never happened... OTOH all of Greg's recent political wisdom has vanished. Quote

If someone could find out who did it, that would be great.....perhaps just a little jail time would straighten him/her out.... Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted September 22, 2003 Report Posted September 22, 2003 I back this board up every week manually, just for the record. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! :rsmile: :rsmile: :rsmile: Quote
Brad Posted October 1, 2003 Report Posted October 1, 2003 It looks like AAJ is still down. Does anybody know what's going on? I hope it's not down for the count. Quote
Adam Posted October 1, 2003 Report Posted October 1, 2003 For me, AAJ is up and Jazz Corner is down (and has been for 2 days). Quote
J.A.W. Posted October 1, 2003 Report Posted October 1, 2003 For me, AAJ is up and Jazz Corner is down (and has been for 2 days). I just checked and AAJ and JC are both up. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted October 1, 2003 Report Posted October 1, 2003 I've been at Jazzcorner for the last two days with no problems. . Quote
Adam Posted October 1, 2003 Report Posted October 1, 2003 Most peculiar, then. It's still not working. My work has a newly-installed firewall. I wonder if that is affecting it. Although I'm still getting this site. It's still www.jazzcorner.com, right? Quote
