That's a relief. For a few days I thought my office had banned me from accessing the Kennel.
So in short it's very similar to hooking up with a girl with the assumption that it's only a one night stand, only to realise she's a sandwich short of a picnic basket when she stops half way through the good ol' horizontal dance and says "I think I'm in love with you".Problem is, in IT often things don't go quite as planned. What you foresee as a midnight swap over of servers, or say a change in operating systems (or forum software versions), you might intend to have minimal downtime only to hit a major stumbling block (incompatible data bases, corrupt databases and need to rely on backups, parts failures, etc).

LOL, Kind of ..... it's more along the lines of "these things start with the best intentions" (ie : we'll only be offline for a day or two) .... Nek minnit, Forum Ded and admins be facepalm'n.So in short it's very similar to hooking up with a girl with the assumption that it's only a one night stand, only to realise she's a sandwich short of a picnic basket when she stops half way through the good ol' horizontal dance and says "I think I'm in love with you".
