Toolarmy Update
Tool, Toolarmy October 30th, 2009
Word from a semi-official source tells me that in regards to the Tool/Toolarmy servers:
- The maintenance is planned, and it will be back “soon”
- Don’t expect any upgrades (yet)
Update: The following message was seen on Toolband moments before the downtime commenced:
27 October, 2009
TOOL ARMY GOING DARK FOR A WHILE
Please be advised that any time now the ToolArmy site will be shut down while we deal with some maintenance issues. As of now, I’m not sure how long it will take to make the necessary adjustments. Thanks for your patience and continued support.
BMB

Ha. Thanks, Jr. 8`)
Wasn’t Jr btw…
kabir?
barry manilow? i hear he’s an IT wiz these days
planned maintenance with no notice??????? Aww…fuck them! Why do they forsake us so???
Hey BadKitty and Kittaan! (sure miss you guys and TA!)
Kiddo called me and told me that Blair posted a *notice* in the news section about three minutes before TA went down that said TA would be going down shortly to fix the issues TA has been having, maintenance and whatnot, that they didn’t know how long it would be down or when it would be back up.
Probly has to do with the stuff distorted did and fix it so corinthian can get back on.
Just wanted to let y’all know so ya won’t be in the dark!
Take care, I’m going lights out again, see you all in December! XO
bella
Miss you bells! Thanks for info even if it’s not what i want to hear.
“Blair posted a *notice* in the news section about three minutes before TA went down…”
Wow, I had no idea about that. Glad to hear that at least there was some warning, but this was handled poorly by any measure… any self-respecting web master knows how to post a temporary default page in situations like this with a brief “be back soon” message…
In any case, it’s great to hear from you Bella, and thanks for that update. Hope you and Joe are having a killer time, and look forward to hearing all about it.
thanks for the info …
if anyone what’s to get a small fix, johnhoward’s page in facebook seems to be the new TA. about a dozen TA’ers were posting there today.
*keeping fingers crossed*
What does the former Australian Prime Ministers Facebook account have to do with TA?
Ah, that John Howard is a man of many talents. I had no idea about his exploits in OZ. But I have to draw the line somewhere… no FB for me.
It hopefully will be back up soon. It appears to me that we had some kind of intruder on the website. And thats what obviously sparked the website to shut down. Don’t listen to me. Im just pondering…
Can’t say I’m shocked by the lack of notice (i.e., a few minutes) that was given about the down time the way that website’s run.
Whatever will I do without being able to post Simpson’s quotes.
I’m not shocked either. At least we have fourtheye to keep us posted. I’m sure this is not Blair’s fault, but how “planned” was this maintenance?
Hellboy, how did you come across the actual post?
Glad to have found some info about this.
Three hours warning the site was going down.
That’s what I call planning.
Go Blair
:-]
This is going to be my TA for now.
SUBJECT: ToolArmy
POST: So whats the deal with these mastodon posts? and how about how karma? didn’t that suck? and why are there ashtrays on airplanes still? i mean, really. come on. what about classical music on the radio? i mean, jeez. really? i wanted oldies, not really oldies. uhhh. tough crowd. i sure could use a positive quote of the day, if you know what i mean. heh heh heh. how am i doing on time? good? no? *lights go dim* ok then. thanks. you’ve been great.
So if this is the quasi-TA message board is there where I make a post asking about presales?
Oh, and:
“That’s it! You people have stood in my way long enough. I’m going to clown college!”
I’m going to take a wild guess and go with Poopyface = MarkusPoop?
Here’s one for you:
“If you’re gonna get mad at me every time I do something stupid, then I guess I’ll just have to stop doing stupid things.”
Presales, live DVD’s and points…oh my!!!
HB-can I start posting my member number posts here? Oh wait…I can’t track them anymore…
;-p
What was it that gave it away? The poop in my name and/or the simpsons quotes.
Definitely sorry to see the site completely down, although maybe when it comes back up I’ll be able to access my profile again? Dunno. Nice to see all the familiar names here though.
@ nxrm – is that you, Cori?
One and the same. : )
Good to see some familiar faces, especially one that has been greatly missed in ta land . . *hugs to Cori and kittaan from a freind from the right coast*
This appears to be more than just routine maintenance to me.
Routine maintenance doesn’t require several days.
Corinthian, you should definitely be back on the site after this.
Hopefully they don’t prune all the good stuff like last time.
:-]
Will I be able to log back in to my TA account finally? I doubt it.
Funny seeing you here cori, as we’ve both been locked out of our TA accounts for quite some time.
I wonder what kind of pictures BMB has of the boys where they’ll let him run their website…he sucks…he’s into all that magik…maybe he’s got a spell on ‘em…
the people who run the TA site are very inconsiderate. it would not have taken much effort to tell us that it would be down for 3+ days. instead, i was afraid it was gone forever until i found comments on here. actually, there is more substantial TOOL info on here than there is on TA. but hopefully it will be back soon anyway. i have only been on TA for 5 months, but Blair is a fuckstick!
ok, i was moderated? Blair and the administrators of TA are inconsiderate jerks. pompous and aloof to the people who payed good money to be apart of the TOOL fan club. i would enjoy poking him in the eyeball.
All first time posters are moderated, and I’m away on holidays at the moment so approvals are very much dependant on me finding a net connection. Welcome aboard…
just stopping bye to say ’sup to the TA folks… anyone got the link to the one true interview they could share…
Cheers, hellboy
thanks hellboy. i did not know about the moderation. i stumbled upon this site trying to find out what was wrong with TA–SEAN
You people need help.. It is only a WEBSITE !! Sorry, Was.. Hugs and Kisses to the TA women i’m missing.. Anybody seen Nathan, we need a Board Nazi here already..
;-}~
lol, from fuckstick to aloof…thats great
I must say after some consideration, I should edit my post too…Blair is actually perfect to run Tool’s website…he doesn’t give a shit…just like them…well, mostly nardo
This is funny as shit
http://www.tshirthell.com/funny-shirts/tool-not-the-band-im-just-a-tool/
Cori, you have been missed greatly!!! I’m itching and twitching for a fix I can only imagine what kind of shakes you have going on.
Hi, my name is badkittygothgirl and I’m a TA junkie.
My name is sms, I am a TA junky.
Well glad to finally find some fucking information on this. Way to go Blair, 3 minutes is plenty of warning…
I am a pessimist at heart so when the page wouldn’t load two days in a row, I feared it was gone for good and never to return.
Hopefully they fix cori’s account too.
Hey peoples. Don’t worry, I think its safe to say if you are replying to this page, you are a TA junkie
@ danielkauai21 – No shit, that is a great shirt.
@ Cori – so cool to hear from you, and I sure hope whatever’s going on does get you back on to TA pronto (along with the rest of us
@ Chris (WVA), BKGG, Rabbit, K2, Leah, Pete, CM, SH- great to see you all here. Miss you all. Big thanks to Matt (Hellboy), yet again, for all his efforts. This is the best source for TººL news… and a place for us junkies to get a quick fix as well while our drug of choice is temporarily unavailable… I feel your pain Kat. LOL.
Have a great weekend, all, and Happy Fucking Halloween. I’ll have to post up some pix of my family’s pumpkin carving skills… we did good this year.
sorry to everyone that i got nasty on my earlier post. i am just really frustrated that we will be going into day 4 without any warning. uncool! nice to see posts from nice people. even you marcuspoop. lol
johnhoward must have spilled his drink on the server, and I have just found out that Blair has taken the TA membership funds and is using them to buy WOPR from the movie Wargames as a replacement.
Pax!
Well you guys can join me at the Hanson forum. I even heard that Tay might make a “guest” appearance today.
Anyhow..hi guys. Facebook is the New TA…we have been posting our faces off at John Howards page.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE
xoxox yada yada etc Sheri
Bubbler break!!!
Hi Sheri. Hi Kittaan….and everyone else. still no TA this morning. why do i have the picture in my head of someone taking their own sweet time with this, saying “screw them, they can wait”
i bet they are sitting around laughing at us.
oh well, happy halloween everyone……SEAN
WTH, I posted a comment and it got deleted. WTF
Am I gonna be able to post here now, or am I still being moderated?
YAY!!!!!!!
IT’S BACK UP!!!!!
You got moderated. You hanled it better than some.

new tool shirts on the way…
“All first time posters are moderated, and I’m away on holidays at the moment so approvals are very much dependant on me finding a net connection. Welcome aboard…”
This the weekend you’re in Melb, Mr. Hellboy? feel free to stop by and moderate all these random, sketchy, TA withdrawn individuals from my crib if you like!
BTW, just booked a trip out your way for early March in hopes of hunting me some pandas… yep, that’s right, with all your koalas, roos and wombats, I’m here to see the pandas
Cheers
HEY EVERYBODY!!!!
TOOLARMY IS BACK UP!!!!!
HEAD ON OVER, IT’S PARTY TIME!!!!
SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!
@ PoopyHead – nice try.
While everyone’s waiting??Why not go to ToolBand chat-rooms? They are operating just fine!
Hey Cori!!! So glad to hear from you!
That is the most pain in the ass password!!
Glad to see some familiar faces!
Howdy Cori, miss ya bro!
Has anybody ever seen ……
Zeigeist!
can someone point me in the direction of Jubal?
I wish, & Thanks for the info about it going down and “eventually” coming back up. Can always count on you guyz (and gals)!!
~yep a TA Junkie too
<b>Didn’t buy it for a second.</B
:-]
Comment is awaiting moderation, I suppose that will take 4 days also! LOL
“soon” huh ?…………. pssssssshhhhhhh.. the management over there in tool land are the most lazy, inconsiderate pricks ive come across in a long time.. at least tell us what the fuck youre doing.. i cant believe i support these people
Hahaha, what 3 minutes before going down isnt enough heads up? seeing how long it normally takes things to get accomplished in the TA management camp, I expect TA to be back in about 4-5 years
WOW !! I just got a POINT !!
;-}~
I got two today already sucker
i am not happy about this. the people who run that site should really be put in their place by us when we get back on. they have to be made aware that the way they handled this is not acceptable. if it ever does come back on that is. hi everybody. i miss arguing with you about politics!! and stuff…..lol
I agree – definitely not acceptable for a site we paid for. Then again the last 5 or so years of neglect are equally upsetting. in some ways sums up why I started Fourtheye in the first place.
I don’t know why anyone would even pay money to be a toolarmy member in the first place but that’s just me.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with the overall value for money. I mean I have a signed photo, a shirt, stickers and other stuff, as well as some limited stuff (Signed Lateralus for example) which no doubt is worth a lot more now.
Oh well, Toolarmys loss is Fourtheye’s gain it would seem. Site traffic here has more than doubled since TA has gone down (if only the google ad clicks had gone up by the same amount).
when do i get my membership kit, damnit
;]
between this place, & JHTA in fb, i figure i’m getting about a tenth of my daily Toolarmy medication
*twitch*
I was hoping to see some reviews of the Puscifer shows in the TA site but it may not back online in time…at least before I go to the show later this week.
Did anyone go to the Vegas or San Diego shows? Any insight would be great. Was Milla there for the Mission? etc…
thanks
still down this morning. thank you hellboy for providing this site. i will visit this site even when TA is back up. i have already saved it to my favorites. i will also promote it to people on TA, whenever we get back on the damn thing. what do you need in the way of donations?? $$??
maynard was on a local san diego radio station lass nite..
he played us some music
heres his play list…
judas priest-painkiller
mars volta-televadors
autolux turnstyle blues
james brown-papas got a brand new bag

Damn! Enok got 69. (inside joke for all you numberz-threaders…)
[Sorry about the double post. I must have clicked something by mistake.]
Well, I’m not really surprised, but I am not into much of the tunes on Maynie’s list. Most of it is at least listenable for me, but I certainly wouldn’t go out of my way to hear them… and I most definitely wouldn’t present them as a playlist on the radio…
PS – Jubal!
It’s so cool to read messages from you all. The first couple of weeks were the worst…total withdrawal and confusion. I just had to remind myself to remain calm and to be patient. And…I really can’t tell you how humbling it’s been to hear how many people have been trying to help me out…I have a lot of “thank yous” to share if/when I get the chance.
But for now…you folks really are a great group…and that’s truly the best thing about TA.
: )
his playlist was themed as an overlaping beat selection. he dint metion anything bout the T.A… the interviewer also made a lil harsh lil joke involving maynard involving his wine at his sd puscifur concert.
http://www.fm949sd.com/coup/Story.aspx?ID=1160182
I agree with kittaan, that is an awful playlist FOR THE MOST PART, are you sure these are songs that Maynard picked? Please leave my karma alone just my opinion….LOL!!
P.S. Enok I believe that you have my 69, I’ll be needing that back now…thanks.
hello all is this the new TA?
Hi all…..WTF……it’s still down? This shit is getting on my nerves….
ONLY SHALLOW by My Bloody Valentine? U2 , MIA and James Brown? OH and APC? I love it!
I need to U tube MBV…totally forgot about that song. Ah playing it right now…it’s the perfect jam
Hi Elpy…if anyone talks to Bobage please tel him hello for me
Sheri
yep. he made the playlist…its called coup de ta or whatever. its when a guest comes in and plays an hour of what ever they want.. this station used to be alll request for a while. it was super coool. i would here alot of shit i never heard b4.what the fuck is maynee doing down here in s.d. . shouldent he be working on the next tool puzzle…geeez…get it togeather maynardo!
wheres ta, im fukin boardish.
My Bloody Valentine is the shit…seriously. I have lovless laying around my house somewhere. I kinda went into a musical coma for a year. Pretty much stopped listening to all my old stuff (cause it reminded me of my boyfriend) ahem…anyways I forgot about how many treasures I have!
Do you like Pixies? That my friend is another gem of a band. I think the playlist was cool…better that then if he did a douche move and played all TOOL songs
I miss TA too…luckily we have John Howards fb page. Even that is lame he never maintains it and his memebership kit sucked
It was an old milwaukees best can, a condom from 2003 and a stale marshmallow peep with Easter grass stuck to it. (I recycled this joke….but fuck I think I’m funny)
Take it sleezy
Sheri
Holy schnickeys…Cori!!! What up brutha!? Long time no read! Everyone and their brother’s been worrying about you mang. Glad to see you’re still with us.
@ Nathan-ps~please refer to ”kvetch”. Thank you. Please drive through.
;-P
@ The rest of the Collective: I’ve been thinking for a few days now…my guess is we won’t be back in til the 12th. Nothin’ to back that up, just my guess. See y’all on the other side.
-peace-love-and light
-C.Bunny
Hey all. Thanks Kittaan for the heads up, didn’t know about this here place. Hey Sheri baby, what’s crackin’!
How humorous & typical that they would shut it down minutes after the announcement was made, haha. Good group of folks here it would seem.
Hey CollectiveJudas…How about a nice game of chess?
@ rabbit, you better watch out next time you run accross the road…next time I might not hit the breaks….LOL!
MAN! I post ONE comment and get moderated!
Where’s Kvetch…
Nov 12th rings a bell Mr Bunny (there was some conjecturing on TA as to the significance of that date, and BMBs reference to it in a recent update). But that’s a LONG ass time to be without TA. I might not make it.
PS – I extended a personal invite to several of my TA faves who have yet to show up here. Do the same for any folks you have the means to contact…
I invited teshla, maybe he’ll show up….I figured Adin and Etina would be here, since they told me.
Props to hellboy!!!
Whats up with everyone these days?
I’m sure everyone misses my smartass, I assure you that I miss you as well, except for John Howard that is…..LOL!!!!
hey nate. i got a facebook if you can find me fucker hahah
Is that contagious?
Yeah, I just started one today as matter of fact, I doubt I’ll ever do much with it, I never did much with myspace either, but since TA went down i said WTH. I’m trying to think how to find you, I don’t know your last name, and no offense to hellboy or anyone, but I don’t want to give mine here and I’m sure you don’t either. Adin has my personal email if you can get in touch with her.
I also Facebooked and Myspaced me -self *that doesn’t sound right* LOL
Hey 40!!!! Yeah, Nate you are my favorite smart ass
BTW…what is JH’s face book handle? I can’t find him. There are about 500 John Howard profiles!! Someone let me know, Thanks.
Howdy! Kittan, Sheri, Mysta,Enok..and the rest of TA. My, myspace @ facebook profile…… Bob Doby
There’s nothing corny about fresh-faced youngsters skippin’ to school, scrapin’ knees and spellin’ bees and pies cooling softly on the windowsill. Well sir, if that’s corny, then corn me up.
hi peeps…
…this comment will be moderated
sleep with the fishes…
but not in a sexually depraved way
BOBBY…I was talking music and I got to missing you
Hi Vinpas63
I tired to add you but there is 7 gazillion Bob Doby’s
My myspace I think is sherirocksreallyalot? Meh I dunno.
Kittan who are you looking for in particular?
Are you the crazy eye? Oh testicals now Facebook is acting a fool. I swear to Pete. No chat and its slow as piss. MEH…
Anyhow nice to see you all
Xxox Sheri
This was meant to be for VinPas…but I added a line or 6 when I when shouldn’t have
“Are you the crazy eye? Oh testicals now Facebook is acting a fool. I swear to Pete. No chat and its slow as piss. MEH…”
Holy shit it is crowded in here!
Hey to any TA peeps that I may know. It’s been a while…
So hellboy, if we all click your ads will it make you rich?
Hello everybody. doesnt anyone have any inside connections to find out what the fuck is going on with the site?? i thought it was supposed to be back up “soon”. we are going to be going on a week here shortly. i refuse to give in and participate with facebook or myspace…..i want to argue with Akiva95 some more damn it.
hellboy rocks
I’m sure it was written… Peter said “with TOOL ’soon’ is as a thousand years, and a thousand years is as ’soon’ “
Oh man I just laughed out loud at that Absinthe…hahha Hi Five!
Holy Shit, The Live DVD just went on sale in the Bazaar !!!
;-}~
riddle: ….What did the gay horse say?
….” Hey!!!”
ELP…don’t forget to mention that the first 100 are signed!
I wish I had checked this earlier, I’ve been wondering for days. I completely forgot about fourtheye.
I needs me some Jubal….
IT’S DECORATIVEGOURDSEASOn, MOTHERFUCKERS.
Yo Bob. I like your icon. I got stuck with a stinker…
Yo Matt: how do you customize icons around here? Or is that just a perk for being The Man? =)
Yo ELP – The TA Bazaar is having a special on signed ‘Shut The Fuck Up’ copies of the live DVD! Go log in to get yours ASAP… =p
LOL LIVE DVD THATS GREAT
The Google Ads disclosure agreement prevent me from confirming or denying this. In fact the less I say about the ads the better, so I won’t be saying any more…
Gravatars are fully supported! http://en.gravatar.com/
Peter said “with TOOL ’soon’ is as a thousand years, and a thousand years is as ’soon’
i’ve said no such thing… what i had says was, “hi, Mr. Bobage”… followed by a slow clap that began the chant, “Jubal! Jubal! Jubal!”
YO Kittan !!.. Harsh, Fucker..LOL
;-}~
TOOL SUX.
Hah hah…
That was for you, ELP.
Alright, I’m here, Steve. Thanks, my friend. Dunno my way around these parts, either…
I miss my TA dammit.
Indeed a gathering of fine folk.
Nice of Hellboy to put us wayward travelers up whilst they put a new coat of paint on the weathered walls of TA. May it emerge fresh and bright and welcome back its many dedicated minions.
In the meantime, let us gather together again on this thin raft and float upon the relocated camaraderie found herein.
Oh Bob…we need a story to carry us onward…GO!
bobage: I’d be honored to be stuck on a raft with the likes of you and other fine folk of the TA.
Question: Who would get eaten first when the supplies ran out? And keep it clean. =`p
Screw that…I’m swimmin’ for the shore…and I’ll take my chance with the sharks.
: )
Question: Who would get eaten first when the supplies ran out
Since it’s November …. shouldn’t we be getting an October Newsletter soon?
Looks like the only place the all seeing eye can actually post something on toolband.com that can be seen while the TA bugs get fixed.
Whatcha think??
I would probably be eaten first, as I am guessing I’m amongst the least carniverous round’ these parts. Nevertheless, I’ll chomp on a femur if necessary.
When is the last time you listened to the Singles Soundtrack? It has such a great vibe to it.
OH CRAP..today I thought of how hot Eddie Vedder is and what a BABE Matt Dillon is…wait are they in Singles? Regardless VIVA LA 90’s
As for eating someone I pick Bobage..he’s long and lean.
Of I wasn’t me I’d chose me…My boobs would make a paella for days.
Good to know! *places Sheri at the top of his list of “Who to eat when the apocalypse occurs*
Holla at me nukkas!
Glad to see cool and the gang found a new place to hang out.
I agree that everyone should start with Bobage and Sheri first. God knows that I am gonna out swim the rest of you to shore.
Leave it to Sheri to make cannibalism sound enticing…
*Invites your tasty self over for dinner*
well, well, well…look at this. all my old friends are here!!
TESH!!! I’M FUCKIN’ HOLLOAIN” AT CHA’ MO’FO…..
DAMN! this is getting surreal!! * an alternate TA universe * (I think Hellboy maybe Blair in disguise) At least you get tips!! ROTFL … WTF??? HI! guys and gals!
oh vinpa63, you tart lil’ tain’t!
Good to see ya. Glad to see someone took the bait. So:
Who here wanna take bets with me on when TA gets back up and running?
Personally, at this distasteful level of misinformation and lack of progress, me thinks that we might not see anything for another week.
6:1 odds. Who wants to bet a tube of toothpaste and a pair of my running socks, used but warshed?
Given that it’s been over a week now, my money is on never. I mean it doesn’t take this long to run any kind of upgrade I know of…
(I have no inside information btw)
Hey, no fair y’all playin’ without me.
Sup? Miss you guys!
my money is would be any date after Nov 12th and the attack of the ‘dillos….
yet again, can’t seem to shake the ‘dillos
Guys…I said if I wasn’t me I’d eat me first…so you kinda can’t pick to eat me. Plus I think I’d be tuff and gamey. Yeah, that’s it.
Hi Teshy
I’d eat JH first. Where is that guy?
I already
I already ate him. You snooze you lose.
Forty, you pig, you coulda saved the good parts for me!
I ate me too.
Will comment will not await moderation.
Gibberish. Substitute ‘will’ with ‘my’. Thank you. *shrugs*
My thoughts exactly. What up, Johnny? Nice of you to join the party. How is your poor little ‘puter doing?
*waves*
Drive-by motorboats for y’all. I lost K2 on FB, and there are no red lights here.
*weeps*
I miss you fuggers.
(Hot fuggers)
We are going to need a bigger boat..
;-}~
ELPY, I am all for a bigger boat, as long as it is not named “USS Minnow” and it is scheduled for a 3 hour cruise.
Sheri, what is shakin sweets? You too k2g, try to mess with my Tex-ass.
@ Hellboy: Well, it is always good to see someone who scoops from the saccharine dish like I di. I did a quick look (googled) into the company United Layer and found that there services are quite pricy (along the lines of 1,000 bucks a month).
Not knowing anything about computers are the people who manipulate them, I am left wondering as well. It has been over a week, and nothing. I will take your bet, and have already postmarked a package for AUS.
Later TAtors.
Sounds pretty expensive. I reckon I could do it cheaper…
Howdy BKGG!
Whats going on?
I’ll be in ATL sat the 21st, if you want to meet up and have a beer…
How are the rest of my homey and home’ets doing this morning?
Nate Dogg stepping in the house?
Wish to cast a bet?
What up G!
HAHA!!!! I know better than to bet on TA for something like that.
hello all . so how many times a day do you all check to see if TA is back up. i can’t count that high personally LOL.
11 times a day—Shit!!!!!!!
Something is wrong with me
Tesh!, you are a Gay motherfucker!!!!!! ROTFL ( But,Really: you really are not that good looking Bro, you just think you are.. LOL ) Amaster agrees!!!
you cant count that high, i and im to high to count that
this is no routine maintenance.. either toolarmy is never coming back or this is the big update we’ve been hearing about
Nate, what’s going on the 21st? Sure, we would love hang. Will the little lady be with you? Vortex burgers?

~GOETHE
I will speculate on this: in now way shape or form could they take down TA for good considering the new members that have recently joined. That would infringe on certain rights and laws.
Therefore, using that wedge as a point for optimism, I still say that we are looking at a long process here. And my reference to the monthly rate for UnitedLayer was only to imply that this process has to be costing something on the level of 250 a week if their monthly contracts are 1,000 bucks for service. Peanuts pretty much.
Anywho. The fact that we all knew to meet up here says something to the ongoing process that is TA.
wait it out
gonna wait it out
be patient
I MUST KEEP REMINDING MYSELF OF THIS!
I miss the random titties..LOL
Can you post pics here ??
;-}~
Another attempt. Sent to Blair just now. I don’t expect a response, needless to say…
Greetings Blair. TA being down this long can only mean that whatever’s going on is pretty serious. I’ve asked before and I’m asking again. Can you please make some kind of a statement about what’s going on? Give us some wild ass guess of an ETA for restoral of service? Anything besides that lame Linux default page… Come on – if the server TA is hosted on is up, how hard is it to put up a “Work In Progress” default at the very least? Since the Newsletter archive on Toolband is still accessible, that would seem the logical place to communicate… and since it’s already into November… isn’t it about time for the October Newsletter? There are a shitload of people going through TA withdrawals (check http://www.fourtheye.net if you haven’t already)… throw us a bone, please. Thanks for listening.
Fingers crossed kittaan! I think I can speak for everyone , by telling you thanks for your efforts!
Hey Kat, I’m coming over to see Underoath saturday and I’m coming at a descent time, so we could meetup at Vortex was my plan. I would come friday and stay the weekend, but thats when BTBAM plays here in B’ham. I’ll call you when I leave sat. Just me.

Nate Dogg!!!!! You are simply having withdrawals from your tits thread.
Nice pic wasn’t it?

I feel for all of you…I really do, but I gotta admit…it’s nice not to be the only going through withdrawals anymore. : )
And…speaking of Amaster…I’m surprised he hasn’t shown up here yet.

@Cori: I can’t imagine what you’ve been going through!! I’ve been itching and twitching and it’s barely a week now!! myspace, facebook, email? How can i contact you outside of this place? Thora has my cell if you want it.
@nathan: tmobile’s sidekick server crashed and I lost many, many phone numbers. text me so i can add you to my TA hot friends network.
@vinpa63: what the hell is this positive quote of the day shit? LOL
Catherine Zeta Jones must be jealous that you have my # and deleted it from your phone, she gets like that. I’ll tell her your cool and that she has nothing to worrry about.
Somebody owes us some points!!!….I’ll tell you what, when TA is back up and running I’ll make a main board post saying this.
LMAO!! She is such a jealous bitch!
TA is back. For real.
Holy shit.

HELLO
Am I the first to be back?
I tried… HA!
it’s still kinda effed up
Yeah, it’s not QUITE all back. But it’s nice to see that familiar black screen again, ain’t it? I am surprised to see it up at all, honestly. Can’t wait to see what comes next… lol.
I tried too, by the way. 8`)
its up but i cant get into inbox mail, i get an error
Can’t really do anything
It is back, but still not working right..
thats what we have been talking about elp, get with it!
you can still give karma, plus 1 bro….you know who you are…..
Aw, thanks Nate. Not necessary, but thank you.
The chat room works.
Only graves and me in there though.
Where is everyone?
:-]
I’m here
chat has never worked for me, I know there is something you have to do to make it work, but I was always content with the threads.
No problem Kittaan.
Some operating systems running some versions of Java won’t work with the chat. Sometimes it doesn’t link correctly too. I used to have problems when I used XP.
The following link is a good link and will bring you to chat from TA (you have to be logged in.) It takes a little while to load but if your Java works the link is good.

Even if you don’t use the chat nate the link might help someone.
:-]
thanks cab…….I’ll run that on my computer at home later….it says that the “digital signature has an error, run anyways”, anything to worry about?
Imagine that!! TA allowed the cert to expire.
That’s no problem unless you don’t trust TA.
LOL
:-]
