Outage

Thanks a lot Dhruv for being there for us and taking your time to work on the forum from time to time.

This is a test message. Something seems weird. Sameer says he cannot see my posts, and I cannot see any posts from Sameer in the forum, after he thanked Dhruv above.

(Sameer, if you see this post, please post below)

EDIT: I think this is normal internet behavior when a server change is implemented... until everything on internet points to the new server.

If that matters to you, I can see both the posts.

But surprised to see so few posts overall.

^^^ I can also see the sameer post above that you see (thanking Dhruv), but there are a few posts he has made after that in various threads, which we are not seeing.

I think your and my ISP nameservers have not yet been reset to the new server. If I am not mistaken, it takes a little time before the server change information reaches everywhere on the internet. So we are probably still reading the old server and our posts are going to the old server. I expect that these posts between us won't be there once it all resets for us too, and we start connecting to the new server. I have made a copy of a few posts I wrote today (score updates etc) and will post them again, if needed, if we get reset to the new server.

Now I can see new posts which I was not able see since last evening. So, maybe I was getting directed to old server earlier and made some posts which are missing now.

^^^ Sounds right... I am glad you are back on!

Thanks Dhruv.
