Guest Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Seems that their server have no used it's annual vacation days. How long ago was it when PG was down for a week or so? This is one of the sites to verify if some websites are really down or if there is local network problem. http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/phuketgazette.net It's not just you! http://phuketgazette.net looks down from here.

Guest Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 If this has happened before you would think they would have sacked off there server people ! Things happen. I'm sure they will investigate what is happening. I'm quite sure they have limited budget, which results to compromises between availability risks and costs. Server error, software error, someone just dig up the cable where they host their server, disk failure, any network element failure, server room network provider routing error... PG is a news company, which might for some odd reason be target for an small scale DDOS attack. Even very large companies can not really cope with larger attacks. I come from the server side, so the default answer is to blame the network gurus Where does the PG servers locate and which OS & software they are using?

JetsetBkk Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Yeah big problems. I also got dozens of duplicate emails from them over the last few hours. Maybe you're getting mine - I haven't had any for weeks. Sounds like a s/w f***up that they are now fixing. Hope so, anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 maybe they want every one to pay for a subscription . They have some kind of subscription but at the whole time their latest PDF newspaper (which I guess is the selling point) has been open to the public at any time for years. With subscription or not. Paid subscription news for todays news companies does not make any sense anymore. News is out there and there and more and more companies to share it. Make better news. Be braver. Be smart while ignoring the 'common rules' and still do it. That's one way to sell the news and also change the our little island for the better.

At some point I thought of creating an account there, just to play with the editor. But he can pre-screen all the comments before those will be published. That gives him the power to control the information flow which makes the effort to ridicule his views beyond the effort required as it would also give him more attention than deserved.

Don't waste your time Oilinki. He's a troll, and he's expert at baiting his regular commenters to stimulate controversial responses, which create more hits for his website. He's written in the past that he's in need of sponsorship to keep that site alive, hence his baiting tactics. On top of that he comes across as your typical pseudo-intellectual elitist snob media type that thinks he knows it all while his readers are merely inferior (to him) know-nothings. I give that site a wide miss nowadays. By the way, some of those "inferior know-nothings" I recognize from their postings here as well...

Guest Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 This brings the question, who each of us believe, who are news people we can trust and who have the biggest balls to show what is really going on in the island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
