Flickr offline today?

AustinTX  Pro User  says:

Have other folks had trouble even reaching Flickr over the past few hours? I keep getting timeouts when trying to connect (and everything else works so it is not local to my organization, at least apparently).

Yes!
like 20 minutes ago Flickr.com was totally unreachable from here ( Chile ) and after like 5 or 10 minutes trying to connect finally worked.

I checked farm1 and farm2 and they were working.

Sorry folks! Unfortunately, that was the result of a mistake in the push of a config file to all of the servers. Everything should be good now!

Thanks a lot jspaw! The issue was fixed, and you gave an answer, an apology and the exact reason for what happened within minutes.

I wish that staff like you were allowed to handle all issues!

Hey, Yahoo CEO resignation and personnel shuffle must've felt very hard, even the internet servers suffered a jolt. Now THAT's good Company communication.

German irony is not understood by everybody. A typical case of culture clash. Flickr/yahoo should better ban all Germans users (German as defined by yahoo) to avoid such problems. (Beware, irony again!)

I thought it was funny. But a :) would help clarify the ironic intent. :)

I got the joke about total censorship, I am sure most folks did. And thanks @jspaw, just wanted to be sure Flickr life would continue as normal. Feel free to mark this resolved.

I have many times had people request some sort of a [sarcasm tag] on my posts. looks like I could use some sarcasm goggles, as well.

Rippie: Contra Censura!  Pro User  says:

it does appear the system went offline for ten minutes or so, and it was while i was refreshing a page, so my browser crashed. :(

the system has been very gooey slow today. it doesn't seem to be appreciably faster now. i still have to click a couple times to get things to move. hmm. :(

Flickr life never will be "continue as normal" since the brand yahoo/flickr is worldwide associated with censorship.
