You've all noticed that there's been an unusual amount of down time lately, worsening dramatically over the last 24 hours. I've spent the last few days working this issue continually, including 12 hours in a row today. I'm a very tired (and hungry) admin. The good news is, I think we're finally clear of it all.The very short version of what's been going on is that an important system directory apparently went corrupt and was causing a lot of bizarre symptoms that had us chasing white rabbits and red herrings.
Finally found it, removed it, replaced it, gave it a bit of a polish, and the bizarre errors seem to be abating.
I am so sorry for all this inconvenience. I am extending existing epic memberships by a week to help make up for any time you may have missed.

We love you Kim!
Let it be known that Kim might as well be donating her own organs away to support the RPR with all the time she spends fixing errors like this for us and making this site better.
Our thanks to you, Kim!

You are amazing, Kim. Thank you
Rad! Thanks for your hard work, Kim!
THANK YOU for all of your hard work!
I am so very glad this problem got fixed if only because I forget tiny details about my characters so often that I have to pull up their profiles to recall such info and in the past few days I've had mini-panic attacks when the website wasn't working. xD
But my mind is at ease now and I am soooo very happy.
Hopefully you can relax and rest easy for a while now, you deserve it!

I'm glad you tracked down the source of the problems and I'm grateful to have the site back!
Yay! That's awesome news! Congratulations on managing to squash that bug.
Yay RP is saved!
Thanks Kim.
Now you deserve a bottle of wine and time to yourself xD
Oh my goodness, YAY!! This was driving me nuts Thanks for fixing it. Time for our admin to take a well deserved food break!
So that's why I had a few more days of epic on my account
Let's hope it's a long while before we have another down time.
