As some may have noticed, SpudFiles (and Theopia) have all been somewhat unstable for the past few days, random downtimes (usually during the middle of the day), random errors, etc.

Please note that I know of this, and I am working with my host to resolve these issues.

Downtime has now hopefully been resolved, at least for now. I will give a status update again in a few days.

Server is currently unstable - SpudFiles may go up and down without notice.

Any reason why it's been unstable?

Possibly resource abuse from other people I share the server with... I do not know (yet).

I notice that often times the adverts get a giant "404 ERROR" on them, and they go on to say it is an internal server error. Or they will say "500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR" in huge letters, with "nginx/0.6.16" below it. I have seen the 404 at the bcarms advert sometimes, and the 500 at the random cannons thing. At least opera tells me these things...

EDIT: Oh yeah, and the googlebot does this too.

Well, good luck fixing the downtime errors PCGUY, I have noticed in the past 2 weeks that i have been getting rejected from entering spudfiles a lot more often (from about 5-7pm central) and wasn't able to get in for about 30 minutes. Otherwise, keep up the good work!

I think it was yesterday or the day before where I got the Emo web server's error page.
