I am sorry but this is crazy and NON professional to the MAX - Plumbing Zone

I am NOT trying to bash anyone,

BUT - I feel this is totally just "silly"

The Ridgid forum is down because of "bandwidth"

COME ON !!! folks, Ridgid is a multi-billion dollar company owned by Emerson and they even EMPLOY a full time web admin....

Anyhow - I just found this absurd for a company so large.

Thanks Nathan for always being live 100%

YOU THE MAN!!!

Here is a screenshot

That may just be a default error page, and the actual reason being a server down.

Wethead · 12-28-2008, 08:22 PM

Either way , you would think it would be "managed"

Think I smell another Billion Dollar bailout

My site still works

Wethead · 12-28-2008, 08:44 PM

haha, na, Its prolly like Killerspider said, Its windy as hell out there, maybe a server went down

Josh is a super smart guy

Probably just the weather,

I miss Ridgid forum already

Me too as I was gonna post a picture of Ricks mess he left behind with his K-50

Wethead · 12-28-2008, 08:53 PM

Oh cool, nice, I hope it goes back online tonight

To be fair Josh may be the Web Administrator as a hobby but his full-time job is the head of the Ridgid SeeSnake division. As far as I know there really is not a full-time manager for the site. The site has been growing so fast they have out grown a couple of providers already. However, I thought the last time they upgraded they were going to be able to grow with the current provider.

My guess is between his wife and twin little boys, the Holidays are pretty busy for him. I've sent him an email so we will see what it takes for him to get the site back up.
