The DailyAwards.com website was down for an extended time from Saturday (Feb. 24) to Tuesday (Feb. 27). The cause of the outage was server failure.

The site has been restored and the last of the images are copying over as I write this. I want to apologize for this extended outage and say that I will do all that I can to prevent this from happening again.

As a way to apologize, all users can add a month to their account using the coupon code at the end of this message. Thank you for sticking with the site thorough this trouble and I hope everything gets back on track soon.

If you encounter any issues with the site, you may respond to this message.

Sincerely,

Eric Elsten

Coupon Code: freemonth

Eric,

Ish happens!  Just glad that DA is back up and running. 

Hmmm.  Have you been reading about the internet addiction issue in China?  Were you giving us a hint? LOL>>>>>

Thank you for everything that you do.  You are very much appreciated.

Hi Eric,

Thank you for working so hard for us. I really missed DA over the weekend. I appreciate your afford to keep this site running and the enhancement you implement all the time.

Welcome back all! I'm happy to see you back.

I believe the email issue will persist and may in fact be worse now. My understanding is that when a new system comes around, most email servers will, by default, reject those messages to see if the server tries sending again. With the server being off-line for a while, it may have been flagged as a spam server by some email systems. After a month or so it should get back to the way it was before the original server move.

I appreciate the offer for the extra month but from my point of view it's easier for us to share the pain. I'll not be cashing in on your generous offer. Here's to wishing you well.

I totally agree with Chris and John, I had no intentions either of using the free month.  In fact I didn't even use the Google coupon!

Nice to know that I am among such loyal and gracious peers!
