Hours of down time is a real pain for sure but at least HTTPME has a good server status page and a forum with current information!! http://www.httpme.com/showthread.php?threadid=7854
If only everyone had this kind of info available to them.
Hang in there HTTPME is a solid company! Once in a while things happen.Sitekeeper

If you read the thread, Steve/Justin mentioned that it's possible that the fault doesn't lie in the absence of backup power.. in fact, there very well might have been backup power. But this outage might have been caused by electrical parts getting fried as a result of a power surge by the lightning strike.
Now that makes sense to me, and it's very possible also. Sure they have spare parts, but it's not something that a computer can automagically replace when it detects a power surge. Some things need to be left to mankind.• Have • you • Floble'd • today? •0

Yeah noone likes these kinds of outages. Clients were informed the minute we were aware of the issue. Power related problems in the rack. Neptune is the last server to come back. Fscking now. Been a rough week with the fire. These things happen. Thick skin needed in this business.

Lightning can do some really strange things with electrical equipment. Once it gets into something it jumps all over the place. Mother Nature knows nothing about uptime guarantees.

Do you even have a website/reseller account with them? What is it? Have you read the thread about the problem on Httpme.com? In this situation I don't think any company could do more. You both are not fooling anyone with your posts; so don’t bother with any more.
They certainly have done all they could to keep everyone informed. I have seen several popular companies run and hide when things go wrong. Aussie Bob and everyone at HTTPME have done a great job in this situation so far. I think HTTPME’s reputation speaks for them!Sitekeeper

It's ok. Folks can vent as much as they like. It's probably healthy to do so in times like this.

It's just when I see VERY new members posting this kind of negative information but never include their website, I always just get a little crazy....
Some of these people need a good experience with one of the lastest "Just leased my $99 server and put up a website, so now I am a host" webhosts! Too many people just have no idea what it takes to make a web hosting business.Sitekeeper

Here's an update to everyone watching this thread. From HTTPme.com's forum:
"All services are back up and running. Apologies for the length of downtime - The fsck took a while longer than anticipated."

How about tracerts, uptime information.
You say again, how about some information about the "Before"
So far how can anyone believe you're anything but a competitor looking to bash.dotGig

We got two tickets, such has been our luck lately. Obviously they failed to win, or I wouldn't be in any state to post this.
No, didn't get there today. Bad timing (end of the month). They ripped the turf up a bit though...they can't say they weren't warned that it wasn't ready.0
