Email services are not completely restored.
When Arenafan’s web hosting service, Versehost, suffered a hardware failure on Monday, May 27, Arenafan and a number of other websites and webhosts experienced a complete blackout. Email services, staff access, and public access were completely lost. This included the Arenafan database, web pages, mailing lists, and aflfans.com email forwarding.
A great lesson was learned. Backup automation and quick-recovery methods are already in place and more are planned to minimize downtime in the event of a future disaster.
Thanks to all of our users for your support during this difficult time. We appreciate your patience.
It feels good to be back.
