The Holy Land of Hoops

I wanted to apologize for the inaccessibility of the message board over the past couple of days. There was a server issue with the host provider that affected a number of clients including this site.

I would like to thank the many board admins and Big East fans who communicated with us via email and twitter with comments and suggestions. We have not experienced significant downtime previously, but are exploring new host providers to prevent this from occurring again.

Now that the conference schedule has been released, we can finally focus all of our energies on discussion of the upcoming season.

Best-
Admin

I know it's pricey and typically considered overrated, but I've used various hosting packages with GoDaddy for a few years now, and I've really experienced issues just once. (There was a 24-hour outage in 2012, but they gave all members store credit as part of their apology.)

I fully understand how frustrating it can be. Been there. Thanks for all the updates on the situation. No one here blames you for what happened, and, if they do, they don't understand how web hosting works.

nothing for you to apologize for. It happens. Frustrating that it happened on schedule release day, but that is what it is.

Not your fault. Thanks for the twitter updates throughout. Much appreciated.

I too wanted to message you to let you know the board was down but the site was down so I couldn't log in and tell you.

Nothing like the board going down, when the Big East schedule comes out.

I guess the Host provider has an ACC fan working for them, and can't stand Big East Basketball.

Thanks for letting us know. By the second(or third day) I was fearful HLOH may have met an untimely demise
Happy I can keep wearing my t-shirt along with the accessing the info and entertainment you provide

Appreciate all you do. The downtime reminded me how much I appreciate HLOH and the community here.
