Outages: When Brassgoggles becomes hard to access
Quite a catastrophic situation indeed!
Keep calm & carry on
It is important not to panic or despair in the event of an outage- there is hope, even if it does appear a bit grim at first. It is advisable to either use your time to work on a new & wonderfull project, finish an old project thats been hanging around for months/years or follow the emergency procedure.
Emergency Procedure
- Brew yourself a cup of tea, have some chocolate &/or biscuits- this is essential.
- Find out what the situation is -There are various places to do this, listed at the end of the page. Remember, it may prove to be only a minor outage, in which case the rest of the emergency procedure will not be needed.
- If the outage continues, more regular users may experience withdrawal symptoms -in this case it is best to start a project to your mind off the situation. Alternately sites such as sparegoggles provide a fill in forum until B.G. is up & running again. in extreme cases of withdrawal it is advised that both options are taken.
