Planet Z is back online

John Cooper · Post by **John Cooper** » Fri May 02, 2003 1:19 am

Hi folks,

Ok, it was a long haul, but I think planetz is back online and working again.

We should see MUCH faster and more consistent performance here.

If you see any problems, let me know. I'm sure there'll be a few glitches here and there, but hopefully it'll all work.

My planetz email is working again, so you can contact me there.

-John

An obvious improvement in speed. Thank you so much John, for all the hassle you have gone to.

Much appreciated, I assure you.

This will be a permanent solution. And I negotiated a pretty amazing deal, as I'm a friend of the owner of the webhost. $180/year -- incredible value.

Let's have a little fundraiser til we get to $180. Donation details over in this thread:

I'll regularly post our balance, and let you know when we reach our $180 goal.

When I joined in last year it was for a dumb problem then vanished because to sum up my state of mind back then concerning my " Pulsar status " it was : big yawn !!
Now that I've bought some synths and FX + SFP 3.1c and see the third party kicking harder than before, it's definitely big grin !!

So spit the cash everybody !!

Thanks guys, we're up to $45!
I'll let you know when we hit 180.

Man, this new server is SO much faster than the old. What a relief.

I am able to reach PlanetZ only today (yesterday as other previous days I could only see the Apologize site

). As soon as I update my PayPal account (my photo etc) I will send some bucks to you, John.

You know, it's difficult to appreciate something if it's everyday. You can appreciate somethiong only when it disappears from your life like PlanetZ did lately and then it comes back!!!!!!!

I'm addicted to it, definitelly, without any doubt.

pfow, this is fast!

Great job John!
Bugs no, bucks yes

It took some days to get acces again, and seeing the moderate number of 'relief posts' some of us don't have yet.
But is was very strange to me that I actually had access two days agoo, I even dit a reply in the OT forum.
But when I tried a second post, I again just could get to the announcement of John, till now.
Think it's ok now

Thanks John, very appreciated!

Since PlanetZ has a new server I can´t upload any music track, what could be the reason? The file transfers completly but then I got the message that there is a problem with my posting.
Help please!

wayne · Post by **wayne** » Tue May 06, 2003 8:12 am

i had the same problem, Chris

just when i wanted to post some celebratory Z-back-online music, too

ChrisWerner · Post by **ChrisWerner** » Tue May 06, 2003 8:41 am

Thank you for your response Wayne, at least I´am not alone.

Maybe the new Z server demands some data before the file can be upload finally and that data don´t come through my firewall?
I don´t know.
