ODP Editor login down

...don't panic!

[vmcknight]

The editor login is currently not working at ODP. Editors can check Resouce Zone for status updates.

I had been trying on and off for the last 9 hours. Thanks for the warning. Webmasterworld site opened marginally quicker than the other window with resource-zone in it, so I saw your message first.

Resource-Zone usually has about 3-4 editors maximum in there at a time (whenever I have looked) but tonight there are 21 lurking. A good time for visitors to ask GENERAL questions about ODP, methinks.

It's back up again :).

Looks like it's down AGAIN.... They must be having some real problems over there. Somebody call a tech.

And this appears on the main ODP page:

18,044 sites - 50,753 editors - -48,713 categories

And I thought there were like 4 million sites. I guess Robozilla found some dead links. LOL

They just got rid of the affiliate sites ;)

It's a known bug. Look at the number of categories, a NEGATIVE number.

It's been a bug for as long as I can remember. I checked a profile and it said Regional had 15 sites :O

The server is currently experiencing a Distributed Denial of Service attack. Sit tight.
