Morrissey-solo will be down most of this weekend as two moves are planned - a move of the main site's code (slashcode) to an updated codebase and move to a new server. If things go smoothly then the site will be up again by Monday.

I'll post an update when the move is complete.

  • Is there any chance that the racists, sociopaths and generally horrible people can be removed from the message board and guestbook on a permanent basis???
    Any new fan would take one look and run away in horror.

  • davidt, thanks for all the hard work on the site. I don't know what'd I do without morrissey-solo.

    As for the above comments, it's a free press here. Same in the UK, I've heard (as it's election day there)!

  • Dear David,

    Morrissey-Solo downtime for a whole weekend?? Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

    signed,

    anonymous posters

    My God! What is going to happen to all you clones? No Moz-Solo for a whole weekend? That's like depriving you from water for a few days. Depriving the average Moz-Solo user for a whole weekend is like...I dunno...abstaining from sex for a whole month for a normal person. What about those few that haven't checked this site for the last couple of days? I have an idea of how this will all go down:

    Saturday Morning -

    Wake up, turn on the computer. Make some breakfast while it loads. Email? No. Morpheus to finish downloading that song from that unsigned band you seen last night? No. Oh wait...lets check Moz-Solo...."This Page Cannot Be Displayed" - NOOOOOOOOO!

    Saturday Afternoon -

    Make some lunch. Download is almost complete. Wondering if it was something I wrote...was my address blocked for that flame I sent anonymously last week?? Nah, there are far worse posts other people send. What can be going on??

    Saturday Night -

    Check Moz-Solo again. Still not working. OH DEAR GOD! What have I done to deserve this? Sign onto Yahoo chat, flame some teenagers as they are the ones who likely fire back. Porn. Can't do it. Something's missing from my life...back to Moz-Solo. Still down. Go to bed. Tossing-Turning. Nightmare. Dreamt that the computer was stolen and Moz-Solo disappeared from the face of the earth. Must sell cans to buy another computer....AAARRGGHHH! Awake. 4 a.m., time to check again...

    Sunday Mourning -

    No sleep. Must contact others. Must get anger out. Must eat. Not hungry.

    Sunday Afternoon -

    It's gone. Oh....the humanity! It's just not fun on normal chat. Does Morrissey know? What will he do about it? Must stop twitching. Must have food...must drink. Must....

    Sunday Night -

    All hope is gone. No wait...must think optimistically in a pessimistic way....did Tom Hanks not get rescued off that island? I will live....No. Must be put out of misery. Must get gun. Must get pills. No more ambien. Must....{sleeps}

    Monday Morning -

    I....will....try....again....www.morrrrissey...no...www.morrissey-solo.com {prays} hits enter_"New Code Intact" - 36 comments. I must be dreaming again {pinches self}. It's back! Now...can go to restroom....

    Cheer up clones. It won't be that bad. Use this time to finish that James Dean puzzle you started in the 9th grade. Or, use it to work on your Mustang. Bright side is, you may be able to get credited from your ISP for the downtime your computer will likely take as a result of all this. I will thank you all for being good sports. As is obvious, any hostile replies to this post ensures my accuracy at describing you.

    We appreciate your work David. As always, thank you. We know the sky is not falling, and dead fish aren't turning up on the beaches. Moz-Solo should be back and better than ever.

    Cheers!
