May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I haven't had any problems w/ the site today.

The Region 2 DVD set is slotted for release 4/19/2004:

The action figures MsBigPileofDust made are pretty cool looking. Can't wait to see the Jayne figure she is working on:

I don't know if site development and testing is going on, but in case you didn't know: Haken lost his development system back in Nov and is still trying to replace it. The only development he can do is with the live system - if that happens, then you can expect these sort of similar issues.

(broke system noted here)

Hmmm...work was done on the site, but nothing that should have affected you. Only explanation I can give you is that many users forget that their login name is their email address and not their username. If you use your username to login, then the password won't match. The same goes with with posting, it uses your email address as login. Of course, your password has to be correct as well.

As for the site vanishing, could be a host of reasons from your provider's DNS not working right to any connections between you and this site being broken. And I'm guessing it's more than a few hops between you and this site.

Regardless,if you continue to run into problems, please let me know and I'll try and resolve it for you.

And yeah, those figurines are cool. Been meaning to ask her how she makes them.

I've hit difficulties myself upon occasion... primarily when I try to just type in www.fireflyfans.net instead of http://www.fireflyfans.net . For some reason, the truly magnificent search engines of Internet Explorer just can't seem to find the site without the http:// prefix.

Stupid Microsoft.

History doesn't always repeat itself. Sometimes it merely shouts "Weren't you listening the first time?!?" and lets fly with a club.

Where is this quote from? It's great, and I'd like to know-

Sorry Haken, I wasn't saying that you are a poor coder and will crap out the system. Just saying that things happen when you muck around with it. That's why people partition off development and production systems. Sorry you lost your work box, BTW.
