Just a reminder, if your bored and you want to hang out with some of us from aa.net. Come chill at #alliedassault on irc.gamesnet.net. We've got a whole party just hanging out in here. We're trying to get AA.net back up as soon as possible! Sorry for the delay fellazs. Our traffic just flew over our hosts heads. We'll keep you all updated.

Well...at least we are all here now. Hope they get the problem fixed soon. =)

Is anyone getting this error at their site:

You do not have permission to access the requested file on this server.

?

Hi Quiet and everyone else.

Alliedassault.net went down because of too much traffic. The site is putting away 6 GB a day which turns out to be around 200 GB a month. 20 GB a month is allowed. AA.NETs hoster cut the site off because of this.

We're trying to find a solution. Gr. Wesley.

yepp i get it to. they maybe upgrade their server or the homepage.

Wow, sorry to hear it.

This place and alliedassault.net were sites I did my daily forum whoring on. http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Perhaps someone could make a front page news post on www.alliedassault.com about this tragedy?

I thought I was banned or something but I tried to write you an email and it bounced.

Do you have an alternative e-mail address?

Thanks!

Yeah, i'm getting that crap too.

I'm on the AA.net forums, and it's really annoying me that I can't get there.

You can contact me threw nero_suis@hotmail.com

This must be the sadest thing in community history...

So whats the problem with this forum then, not good enough for ya? http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/icons/icon29.gif

You have many alternatives.

Have you considered becoming www.planet site? GS may host the services and I can find who you can contact to set up a Planet site.

As you can see:

http://www.planetmedalofhonor.com/ has already been registered. If they don't have a webmaster yet you definetly have the credentials to run it - and you have hook-ups with JS already.

Another one is advertising, these guys are a super popular site and their ads don't really get in the way:

http://www.3dsoundsurge.com/

You can contact the webmaster of that site, he's really smart and helpful.

UBB sucks compared to vBulletin. Those forums just looked and ran nicer...everyone was more friendly and they didn't have the constant bitching and flaming that is going on over here. Looks like I'll have to become a regular member here now. http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif

Sure sounds familiar... I think BS said that a couple of times when AA.com went down before he moved to a new host and I'm trying to refresh my memory here, what did you guys said about that?

Ah just forget it, you deletes topic on your forum so there's no proof. But I don't think Polaris or Wookie will ever say terrible things like you guys did.

Good luck finding a new host. And 6GB / day? ROFL yea yea okay, last time I check the nedstat counter on your site you get like 4000 hits/day. 6GB for 4000 hits?

I don't even think Shugashack gets that much traffic, keep going.

The forums I admin at run through bandwidth like crazy, and we're not hardly as busy as AA.net. They have upwards of 30 members online at once. Six gigs a day does seem kinda large, but they are very well using over 2 gigs a day by just taking a quick look at their site and forums.

Phosphoric I don't know if you ever ran your own site, but 4000 hits may seem small, but they're just for one page. Consider other visited pages. The main problem is the forum. With a 1000 members and 130 total users online now and then that takes a lot of traffic.

Justin is right. The forums went threw the bandwidth like crazy.

I am getting that message too. What the hell is wrong with AA.net ? ? ? ? ? ? . Do you think they reached there maxium amount

Read up. The webmaster of AA.net explained why, and yes, they did cross over their maximum bandwidth per month.

Well, even though it ended up in the demise of using this particular host, that's quite a compliment if you think about it. http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
