I too hope the server situation is sorted soon but in the meantime I have uploaded my site to my freepages with my ISP. Luckily my web building programme is able to do this so I haven't had to do any drastic rewriting or anything.

Trystan & Sarah
I hope there are no problems outside of the Server situation that is keeping you away from us. An update would be appreciated, if only to put many people's minds at rest.

Best wishes

The silence is getting just so deafening - but will this help?

Not sure Andy, but as you know, I've spent a lot of my dosh doing look ups and saw it as some kind of rent for my site:



No site = no dosh

Is this very old statement of Thursday 20 December 07 20:55 GMT Trystans comment on the matter:

"The free webspace server is still offline. A developer that we selected is very busy on other projects at the moment, and although we had hoped that he could have worked on this for us, unfortunately time has not been on our side.

We will get this back up and running, on the new bigger faster free webspace server. We're hoping that there will be an extra couple of features on it that will make it well worth your wait.

I'm painfully aware that this has taken ages, and I can only apologise."


Is it time to move on . . . . .

Again just so sad

Andy

The last I heard was about 6 weeks ago a new and very large server arrived when Trystan was away from home.  Perhaps it is still on the doorstep!

Perhaps we will never find out!

It's just so frustrating.

Can't think of anthing else to say.

So sad that no one out there will tell us anything.

However . . . . . . .

I think that I feel let down more than anything  Cry

I assumed that we would be informed of no news or a long delay or sorry folks.

I just can't accept that Sarah and Trystan could show us such discourtesy of not replying. They seem such nice people who wouldn't leave us hanging here.

Something must be wrong  Undecided

Again I agree Gadget.

Is it such a problem that it can't be posted on the web?  There must be something someone "in the know" can post safely just so that we have an idea as to what is happening.

Is someone ill, has someone "fell out", is there a money shortage  or is it something else?

Will we one day soon click on RootsChat and nothing comes  up?

My page, so people tell me still comes up on a Google search - hence I still get E-Mails asking why my page is down. So does Google know something we don't?

Hi
I have to admit to giving up on waiting for my site to reappear. The amount of email I am receiving from people trying to access my sites is getting ridiculous.
I have just uploaded my sites to
www.bekahsgranhistory.freewebspace.com
and
www.justphotos.freewebspace.com

The basic site is free but then it has annoying pop ups, but for $4.95 per year you can have a free site with no pop ups.
Not the largest amount of storage (only 50MB) but enough just to give people access to my sites whilst rootschat gets sorted.It'll do me bye the bye.
It is very frustrating though, not to have one iota of feedback from the rootschat caretakers. They could at least reply to us all. Lets hope that they do so soon.

Everything crossed

If neither Trystan or Sarah can reply to our Query, I would like to see a Mod at least respond, even if they know no more than us.

it seems that everyone has gone silent. I find this very strange. Mods come on and give us advice, tell us what we should and should not do/say but here, nothing. As Andy has said:

THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING

Please respond - someone.
