Bump!

I want to make sure the recent decrease in CathInfo member traffic is organic, and not caused by some script error.

If you ever find yourself blocked from CathInfo, PLEASE EMAIL ME.

I note that this thread has only been read 1832 times, and that counts duplicates. Duplicates ARE possible when a thread gets another post, and someone re-visits that thread. But if a thread stays stagnant with 5 posts, for example, it wouldn't matter how many times you hit refresh -- only one visit would be counted.

A lot of those 1832 hits are duplicates and guests. And so, I fear that many members still haven't read this message!

Another point:

If CathInfo seems to be down, it's 99.9% going to be some technical issue -- an upgrade that resulted in Apache not running, or the permissions on the PHP executable being incorrect. Yes I know that's technobabble for many of you, but the point is that if CathInfo is down, it's a technical issue and I need to be informed of it. You need to memorize my e-mail address: MATTHEW at CATHINFO.COM. Shouldn't be that hard to remember

CathInfo isn't going to be taken down by anybody. I'm self-hosted, so there is no one to contact to have CI taken down. It would take something apocalyptic and hard to pull off: like a government action (think: swat team) or a lawsuit (which you're not going to get Pro Bono, so you'd need some deep pockets, especially since it would be a baseless and frivolous lawsuit: CI is not exactly guilty of anything. Guilty of political incorrectness DOESN'T COUNT. That only gets you "CANCELLED" and I can't be CANCELLED (made infamous, unpopular, "can't get a job in this town", can't star in any more hollywood movies, excommunicated) as I said. This isn't Germany, and right now so-called "anti-semitism" for example isn't against the law.

P.S. I would point out that CathInfo hasn't been shut down by anyone since it started in 2006. So there's that bonus argument of long track record as well :)
