To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

What happened to the-starport.net

I just noticed it yesterday because the site was lagging big time. But http://the-starport.net/ seems to be down right now. Any particular reason why? I know they just redid the website think last month. I had their community bar on my site and had to pull it off because it was making the website hang least for me. Because there script calls something on their server and since it couldn't contacting it, it was taking forever to timeout.

So if anything SSC should be faster now 🙂 Hope they are just redoing some things on their end if not that will be another FL community shutting down. People should forward everyone here if there site is going down 🙂 I know I'm self plugging SSC again....

it's back up at this minute but, it's been getting hit real hard by DDos attacks and they're doing their best to get around it.

Thanks HK

I saw there site came back online. I will probably hold off on putting the community bar back on until I post on their forums about the issues with the bar not timing out quick enough. It literally took me several minutes to login when there server was down.

Wonder if they made someone mad? Why anyone wants to do that to a website, a gaming website at that. If you don't like a site's content or people just don't visit it no more 🙂

btw, the FLCN bar code is now hosted at googlecode as an alternative, see T SP forums. So it is independent from T SP and it's outtakes.
