TalkChess Is Back
In the absence of Talkchess Forum we had the opportunity to better understand its value. I hope the same problems won't happen again.

Re: TalkChess Is Back
I have been looking for Talkchess 100 times a day and found a post on a website why it went down. I thought at first Your Move Chess and Games pulled the plug then thought maybe the domain was seized because somebody didn't renew the domain. Hope I never see Talkchess go away while I'm alive.

Re: TalkChess Is Back
Hello All,
We all know that TalkChess was not working for a few days. But, why did it fail? Was it "hacked"? Why the redirection to "Off-the-air"? What protocol is now in place to ensure that doesn't recur?
Thanks in advance,
-Steve-

Re: TalkChess Is Back
According to Quentin, unexpectedly high demand for chess-related products put too much stress on the domain and the servers went down. They decided to take Talkchess out of the loop as a temporary relief on the domain. They have upgraded their servers which seems to have mitigated the problem.Stephen Ham wrote: ↑Mon Nov 30, 2020 10:08 pm Hello All,

Well, you’re not selling stuff when your servers are down. Seems to be a miscalculation.mhull wrote: ↑Mon Nov 30, 2020 10:17 pmAccording to Quentin, unexpectedly high demand for chess-related products put too much stress on the domain and the servers went down.
