Thanks El Loro. Is the app back too please ? 

I thought it would be a Server problem again. I don't panic as it always gets fixed

It doesn't appear to be All I can get is  the sign In screen , but that won't even let sign in  

I don't use the app so can't say.

That ^^^ was for the app 

El Loro , could you possibly let Seattle know that the app still won't work ? 

Ted says that the various Hoop.la sites are coming back. It was something to do with the ,la registrar which means as much to you as to me

Baz, I've reported the app problem to Social Strata.

I've got to go out now so I won't be able to check on progress until later.

Here's a link to the Social Strata thread:

I get a bit panicky when the site goes down, wondering what I'll do with my time, if it never comes back!

Thanks El loro And ditto Yogi

Just to clarify.. there were no server problems on our end.

The issue was caused by the .la domain registrar.  No .la sites anywhere on the internet were working.  We still have no idea what the issue is/was.  

Hi Baz.

Can;t imagine - life would never be quite the same. It'd be like Lost In Space

The Social Strata tech people have made a change which should reduce the risk of the recent outages happening again. That's the simple explanation.

The more complicated explanation per Brian Lenz is:

"The issue today was amplified by the fact that our DNS records for hoop.la had a low TTL of 5 minutes (necessitated by the recent server migration). As a preventative measure, we have bumped our TTLs up to 24 hours in order to help lessen the impact from this type of issue in the future. If this type of DNS issue were to happen again, sites should remain more available for an extended period of time."

So now you know

Clear as mud 

Are you propositioning me?

quel dommage - c'est la vie
