What's your story on the server HD crash?

I did not notice that something had been wrong until I couldn’t find my account. My first thought then was wtf? Because of work i had not visited in a long time and only knew of the crash after I read about it in the news section.

was on ModDB on the BM profile -> Comments: “website is down!” -> clicked link ->
no website -> :frowning: -> after 1 or 2 days the site was back -> :slight_smile: -> forums were reset -> :frowning: -> registered again -> now posting more than before :slight_smile:

Which is not really a good thing. :smiley:

(unless you answer all the noobs threads so that they GTFO and report bot threads).

I remember doing my daily check of the forums when I noticed that the site was down.

I then shrugged and moved on with the routine activities of my life to which I can’t really specify do to lack of sufficient memory of said date.

It was down?

Nope. Nothing happened, it was all just a bad dream :ninja:.

There was a server crash about, I dunno, 1 month ago, and I’m still tryin’ to find my files…

Just one of those days I guess…

Why do we all have to wear these ridiculous avatars?

One day, I went on vacation, and my mind went of of black mesa. As time went by, i forgot it moar and moar. And one day, I saw it on my favourite list, and tried to load the site. IT HAD CRACHED. I found a small blade in my desk, cut myself in the hand, and jammed a rusty nail through my achilles tendon. Then the website came back…

ok the knife is a lie…

I was like, “Crap. They got hacked again. Time to restart my post count. I was almost to 500, too!”
I didn’t re-register until a couple hours ago, 'cause I’ve been too lazy and disappointed by the crash. But I’m back! Hooray!

I remember having a great wank just before the site crashed.

If you’ve been preparing chilli’s and forgot to wash your hands… Yes.

So 30 minutes ago, I had visited the BMS site for the first time in maybe a year. When the forums failed to recognize my user name, password and email, I came under the impression that they switched the forum servers again.

Then I went on this thread and realized there was a server crash.

I came back from school and change my cloth then type “www.blackmesasource.com” as usual, after that i was like “holyshitwhatthefuckjusesfuckingbbq?” i was almost to 100 post count and i have to register again :frowning:

Epic lulz ensued by all who deciphered this crazed maniac’s message.

I just found the forums while googleing black mesa, and then I found this so I joined :smiley:
I had NO idea whatsoever that there was a crash until I read a few of the threadsXD

I wet my pants in excitement.

I thought it was because of me.

:frowning:

For me it was at 3:00 in the morning and I though bms was dead.

Pleeze man they wouldn’t abandon it with the mod’s release 2 months away…

Wouldn’t they? :[
