so whats happening with simtropolis.com?... ()sad()
I would very like to give them aid but spent my last $$ fro eats and gas for the truck &mmm
Site outages due to upgrades and other factors are all part of running a website. I'm sure it'll be back up as usual within a few days at most. I believe there is a Twitter feed (assuming you use such things) for reporting the status, so that's probably the easiest way to verify what is going on.
Here (https://twitter.com/Simtropolis) is the Twitter feed. They haven't posted anything since December 30th, though if this ends up being a longer outage, they're usually pretty good about updating it.

Looks like a problem happened. They usually let a message on ST saying they're updating the site. Today there's only a weird error message.
Simtropolis sure has suffered from a lot of outages in the last several months. It must be site upgrade teething pains.
Well, this is disconcerting. Hopefully it's just a hiccup, but I need my favourite charmingly bizarre mid-night chat room back up soon! :crytissue: ;)
AaarghHH...!
I uploaded a file yesterday afternoon. Was it my mistake? I hope not!
Frank you took the whole dang site down! :thumbsdown: ???
:laugh: :D :thumbsup:
:evilgrin:
Good to see the Simtrop servers haven't stopped catching fire at random ::)
And....it's down again. :(
And up! :thumbsup:
...Aaaand it's down. Again :(
Bipin - Why do you insist on breaking the internet :D
It's back up it seems :).
Yes, and up again!
By the way, now that I have your attention: what is wrong with the search function? I seem to have so many results every time I look for something that I still cannot find what I am looking for. It's terrible! :'( ()what() :angrymore: :bomb:
Hint: Use google :) Search is so broken on ST I don't even consider it's existence.
I've never understood why they don't just use Google Custom Search on the STEX, which is what the LEX uses for its search function (not the "Power Search" where you can search by categories or usernames, but the plain-old search function).
Yeah, that is a good idea. I'll do that. Thanks.
