Hey! We’re Back Up Again

Kitten_ITThose who may have tried to visit our site in the last 24-48 hours may have noticed that we were down for quite bit of that time. Early Wednesday morning, it became apparent to me that the site was beginning to run slow and soon after, we were completely down. At first, I attributed this to two large stories we’d published that day (2014 Sony 4K Television Prices Officially Unveiled, Lower Than Previous Leaks and 2014 Sony 4K Televisions to Include PlayStation Now, Can Stream PS3 Games In 4K) that had us down to a crazy traffic spike. Unfortunately, the cause wasn’t nearly as exciting though much more devastating.

Instead, we learned that a whole bunch of other websites and email services were down. The culprit? Our host. Unfortunately without much notice, BlueHost went dark (I still attribute it to a Hydra attack) and stayed down for well over 24 hours. The reason behind the downtime is still unclear, but we, like you, were furious that we couldn’t have our site up and running for you. Also a big thanks to our team, and specifically Ricardo, for helping us get things up again once BlueHost had resolved things on their end.

The readership and friendship we’ve built over the years is everything to us and the reason we continue to push SRN to be the biggest and best destination for Sony and PlayStation fans. It seems like we’re now in smoother waters and the entire staff and I are excited to bring you coverage once again, starting with a review of The Raid 2. However, if you notice anything finicky, don’t hesitate to drop us a line in the comment section below or contact us on Twitter and/or Facebook.
