"We unfortunately need to go down for a few hours. Sorry :-("

Anyone got any news?

[Lowtax]

They should tell us why.

[NielDLR]

Yeah, this is a bit unexpected. Was just about to recommend people Tradehill as an alternative to MtGox, then this happens.

[Aryah]

Yeah basic service management.  Explain the problem to us and give us a realistic time to fix.  The black hole of not knowing is the biggest problem.  Not impressed...

[Aryah]

Can a non-newbie post this in Trading Discussion forum please?  Just to let everyone know.

[Aryah]

Cancel that - they're back

[Alex Beckenham]

That was a quick few hours

Down again

[Catharsis]

They can be down for 48 hours for all I care if it'll give them the chance to put the damned instant buy/sell options back up!
