Zeropaid Downtime: 10/23/2002 - 10/24/2002

[dubstylee]

So, hopefully you noticed Zeropaid.com has been down for the last 24+ hours, and hopefully it wasn't too traumatizing. :-D

The Reason For Outage was hardware failure, we fried a motherboard. Way to go, guys. Just kidding. Anywho, we should be up and running and all good, if you notice any problems please email me at chris@fivemtn.com, as our mail here is not up yet. Hopefully that was it and we will not see any more problems. Carry on with the mayhem!

Are you sure those ZP poster girls weren't causing too much b/w traffic that you had to shut down for a while? :devil

[MoonMan]

I am lost without Zeropaid.

EDIT: Well kind of...

[Sephiroth]

[Power Penguin]

Nurse, quick administer more Quintohyrocyclopromide, we're losing the news!

[TC75580]

Any reason the date gets set back to Dec. 31 1969? Is that the earliest date it recognises?

[wonderboy2005]

whew... im glad zp is back up... i was like a crack whore without the crack.

[Sockfulloflove]

at least zp is back up now and i'm happy.

me too, but luckily there was blubster.net forums to sustain me a little longer (not much longer).

[PowerMan57two]

wow I'm glad thats done, I was lost without it.. I thought at first it was my computer!.. lol

[Crazy Horse]

Ah yes - The zoo is open for business.

[«°¤§téålth§t®îk餰»]

i thought it was my computer too! tried to fix my firewall thinking it was blocking the site LOL!

went over to FastTrackMovies forum for a few days.

I'm happy to be alive on ZP again!:wings

[don webb]

Needed a FIX and couldn't get it. Had to go to strangers !!!!!!!!

Should we take roll call ???????:mellow

[whiff]

and was chagrined to see their snarky "zeropaid is down, too bad kiddies" note on their home page. glad yr back, ZP.
now can you get the news back on the homepage?

[MoonMan]

Yeah I noticed the news was totally gone, thought it was just my slow ass computer not loading it up.

Oh and I didn't even bother to check UTC out while zeropaid was down, but that annoys me that they say something like that... especially since when THEY were down, zeropaid welcomed them with open arms.

[dubstylee]

good to go, news is back up and running.

And FUCK UNITE THE COWS. Who the fuck names their website unite the cows?

And this from an email from them a few months age with the subject line "Let's Make Peace":

"We think that the time has come to bury the hatchet, somewhere besides in to each others heads. (lol) We know that there has been fault on both sides. But the flaming, bashing,& negative comments about each other's websites has to stop."

Yeah? is this how you go about it? How bout you GET THE FUCK OFF MY DICK.

[Sephiroth]

That coming from a site that went down because of "bandwidth limits" which was halarious.. At least this place isnt just a forum running a web page hack.

I just saw dubstylee post and i agree.. Im sick of their shit too. First intimdated and whoever else comes over here and bitches and flames, the they go on a little rant on their web page continuing to diss this site for "leeching" there content even though they post articles that orginate here on their site.. Then they encourage people to come over here and flame which surprize less than a week later there are newly registered people here flaming!!!

Then they want peace which didnt even come from the two people who started everything and continue to stir shit Unite and Intimidated.. Which i think the truce was bullshit since they were the ones who started, and continued this whole thing and yet they pin the blame on this site and sadly some people actually believe them.. Which is bullshit.

Unite the Butchers!!

[gorphon]

and it seems to me that the spirit of p2p and open source goes hand in hand... something intimidated and the rest have forgotten for whatever reason. I mean, he treats this software as if it were proprietary, as in his and his alone. if you didnt want it freely distributed intimidated, why not try and make a buck off of your relatively simple 'hack'? Frankly, and though I disagree with much of what has been going on here at ZP, I find your behavior infantile and patently absurd. Didnt this site freely help you when UTC went down, allowing all of your members to post here as they wished? and now, I imagine that many of the spammers, lamers, and flamers that suddenly surfaced are many of the same people who were happy to post here so few monthes ago. its nonsense... so who are the kiddies, kiddies?

I remember a little while back some dialogue between some of the guys at ZP, slyck, and UTC about how we are all in this together, work together, blah blah blah.... what ever happened to that? other than posting a link to software created by intimated for the fast track community, what did ZP do to you? and where does the blame really lie and within whose little petty, pridefilled self absorbtion?
While I do think that ZP should have mentioned Intimidated if not UTC when posting this file for download, I do not see the big deal. I have not used this hack but I imagine it must have a splash screen saying "created by intimidated! visit utc!" or some such shit... or am I wrong?

ok. just one last thing. grow up people, get over it, its petty for people who are SUPPOSED to believe in the free distribution of information to bicker and inflame their users endlessly over such a thing as this.

this is funny! maybe they are just trying to stage a coup, get their member count up so that they can buy a real server and hosting..... there are conspiracies everywhere and Im out of halidol! :fire

[gorphon]

gorphon went off on a rant and forgot... glad to see you're back up and running, hope all hardware problems are worked out now

[Caitlyn Marble]

ZP was down!?!?!?!? I didn't know. School bites.

The guy's a bitchrag it's as simple as that. BTW his shitty name an site are tatted all over the weak little VB program. I never used it just saw some screen shots...... Looks like it was done by a 10 year old....anyways I'll stick to doing the IE trick then using the reg trick that was discovered by a ZP member. UTC's sucks! An I didn't go get a fix at any other sites. LOL ZP forever!


Glad yall are back up.

BTW how much did it cost to replace the mobo? An what kind of system is it all running on? HD size CPU speed ect.





Peace all, Later

Unite the Butchers!!

I just now read your post and you expressed exactly what I was thinking, right down to the wording. I just didn't put it down because I thought it was over the top.

What I would like to add:
Unite and Intimidated seem to have no regard or respect for this site or its users. They are the people who started the shit, and continue to stir it. I say ignore them, maybe they will get bored of mud slinging petty insults (and then saying "how great" the site is to save their own asses) and go about their business.

My two cents.

[mfgbypooter]

whew... im glad zp is back up... i was like a crack whore without the crack.:arms:

tingle for your dingle.

There's this crack whore who wants you to hit the crack pipe first, then blow the smoke in her crack while she's hitting the pipe.

:chairfall:

[Mels_Smileys45]

God damn zerospam...NOT! Mother fucker! This shit is just god damn stupid! Give me the power damn it! I demand it! I demand to have the power to clean up ZP from spammers! That is all I want to do and all I want to be allowed to do! For fucks sake! I am here often enough to make some dent in it and I will be more than happy to do it. FUCK! I don't want to mod shit. Never have, never will but I want to kick the spammers in the nuts!

This site is being attacked by members or former members of the site. Someone thinks its funny or someone is actually trying to make money while simultaneously ruining this site!


JORGE! LOOK! If you do not care if ZP dies then do not let any of us help and we will move on to a different forum like P2P Consortium and make that the most popular P2P forum. Come on! The forum members have been SCREAMING for help for over a year now and its come down to do or die. Please, either let us help, since its impossible to update the forum to block out this spam from your end, and some of us members will clean up all the bullshit that is about to kill this forum. Whoever is spamming here is about to win. Either you can let it happen or allow some people to help out.

:wtf:

:wtf:

:wtf:

:wtf:

:wtf:

[DrewWilson]

I have an idea. Since we know that this forum uses VBulletin technology, how about helping them find the things needed to fight the spam problem? If there's a plug-in to be had that exists that would help fight the spam, perhaps link it here (maybe even in a new thread to help find it instead of an old thread bump)

Just an idea.

[mfgbypooter]

hell mels for as long and for how much we're here you'd think they'd have given us these duties long ago.

But wtf.

Might as well just buy a phone and some new shoes, order some pills from an online pharmacy, and relax while you wade through the meaty spam department located right here in the forums of ZeroPaid.
