@cabal If that were said from the start, most of the drama on the public timeline could've been avoided.
-
@chiefanchor And that includes just redashing someone's dash saying that.
-
@captainmilo Calling ponies total imbeciles, particularly when they're involved in site operations.
-
@captainmilo Well, that's a wonderful way to guarantee a shutdown - take potshots at ponies.
-
@zeeraw With how sudden the announcement was made, we nearly had a mass fainting spell...
-
@pinhooves This may, or may not, be the end. Just observe for now.
-
@pony I don't think it's bits... if that were even the case, ponies should've been asking for help.
-
@dezzierose I don't think @pony is the only one here with something to say... or at least a few choice words for this sudden turn of events.
-
@minti That's an idea, but somepony would then have to transfer the domain name...
-
Apologies for the incoming #hashtagabuse, but things just have to be said. There's no bucking reason for #RDN to shut down, and no reason to cause #everypony in this wonderful community to #abandonship needlessly. This just wasn't cool... I'd say it was #20percentlesscool.
-
@ceruleanspark Great...
-
@minti Worthy of repeating...
-
@purpletinker If it comes down to it, I'll offer to host.
-
@ponydude Inevitable #heyheyhey #stayouttamyshed
-
@mushi No kidding.
-
@mushi Memories of caves everywhere...

@ceruleanspark @minti Just got an update from them; multiple datacenters went off-net. Figures, but at least it's not just a scattered few servers, and since their sites went down, it's probably hit their mane center too.

@minti Yeah, I don't run high-demand sites. Mostly a personal domain, a small hand-me-an-address-if-I-ask-for-one mail service, and a few parked domains for other pending projects...
-
@minti Like I said, they've generally been good to me. The only frustration is that I can't report an issue because I can't access the support system.
-
@ceruleanspark From my experience, they're generally good to me, so I've stuck it out with them. Just odd that they've vanished.
-
... anypony else use Dreamhost for anything? If so, any issues with e-mail or the like? I can't even get to the web panel right now, much less their homepage.
-
... I must've missed a lot if purpletinker is gone now... though how I missed a lot in 24 hours or so confuses me.

@minti WHAT?!
-
@minti THREE DAYS...
-
@pony It's done because it's such a quick subject to get sore and argumentative, that's all.
-
@pony Actually, everything he said on the public timeline related to the demand to take it to Direct Messages was rather courteous.
-
@decibel Ee-yup.
-
@minti ... they drive you to insanity?
-
@minti No problem!
