As people may have noticed, the Unreal Texture site is down.
And i look like its a repeat from what happened to my previous host. This time the site was suspended because it took to much resources from the server its running on.
I got an e-mail from the host upfront the suspension, and i took actions with the removal of a certain script, while i also gave a reply to them.
They missed my email and thereby my actions, and i got a mail today the site was suspended, and now they also complain about the size of the site.........
I decided to take drastic actions myself to prevent further problems, and i decided to have the site go back to the core activities which are Unreal and UT since i make textures for those games.
It also means that i deleted out all other sections being:
Unreal II
UT2004
UT3
And its unlikelly they will be back............
In addition to that i dissabled hotlinking with the exceptions of a few sites:
www.UnrealTexture.com
www.CelticWarriors.net
www.OldUnreal.com
www.BeyondUnreal.com
www.UnrealSP.org
At this moment of writing the entire site is suspended, which also means that the main download mirror for patch 227f as well as all the links to the S3TC packages are down and unavailable.
The problem now is, they try force me to upgrade my account to a VPS server. If they do force me to that, than the answer is simple, UnrealTexture.com is no more
The price for the cheapest VPS server is 40 dollars per month which is something i simply cannot afford, not even remotelly...... And that also wont be enough to host the site because that package is limited to 20 gigabyte of space while the current(stripped down) site is 75 gigabyte.
The only option for me that is left, is to split the site up into 2 domains and pay for 2 seperate hosting packages. Obviously this will double the costs on the site and will be a huge drain on my already almost empty wallet.
So lets see what happens next days, but count on being the site down for a couple a days even when the outcome might be positive. Where possible ill try keep briefing everybody here.
