was ATS down???

This happens from time to time. ATS agents occassionaly shut down the servers to upload stored user records to the FBI. That is why I have had MIB following me around in conjunction with ATS server shut down. Everyone watch your back for the next few days. You will never notice them there if you aren't looking for them.

no official answer as to what caused this???

hmmm...

i smell a conspiracy

A conspiracy? On ATS?

Perish the thought!

I don't know what might be causing the glitches, but I like to fantasize that they have something to do with all the massive requests I've flooded SO with related to the upgrades and features I want for PTS.

Might as well think positive thoughts.

i am surprised that ATS "crashed" for a while...

after all, ATS is run by the US government and all the mods are US agents

Someone must have posted some really sensitive stuff, and the G Men shut it down to keep it from prying eyes

smells like beer...on server...maybe someone fell asleep?

same problem happened to me again just now (i couldn't get on to the site)

i wonder if ATS is sick

Yeah just happened with me too. another implosion

here we go again, same time same bat channel:

Warning: file(): php_hostconnect: connect failed in /home/abovetopsecret/public_html/forum/header.php on line 899

Warning: file(blog.abovetopsecret.com...): failed to open stream: Connection timed out in /home/abovetopsecret/public_html/forum/header.php on line 899

Warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/abovetopsecret/public_html/forum/header.php on line 899
Lost connection to MySQL server during query

Knock it off, SO. We have a game to play here. lol

Yes, it happened again. Some bad arguments caused an implosion or something...

mm i just burnt my tongue

what does a bad argument have to do with sighning on anyway?
"runs in circles screaming and souting at nothing"

It happened while i was trying to post a reply to a thread. Per my luck it was one i took time to proofread for ideas spell check and even a quick grammer check.

Bad Argument = Implosion.

Good Argument = WATS vote.

Looks like the MySQL DB the forum is using is getting somehow either overloaded or underloaded by networkerrors which may cause timeouts on the SQL-Queries. My guess is network latency, possibly due to a partial router outage for either maintenance or re-configuration.

implode() is a standard PHP function: es.php.net... which merges a number of arguments or arrays into a single string

An argument is just a variable you pass to a function or a program so that you do not have to re-write the whole function or program each time you execute the program or function with the same purpose but a different subject. en.wikipedia.org...(programming)

Should I be offended?

Sorry, just saying what the script said. No offence intended.

Opps, it said "Implode", not "Implosion". My bad.
