And Futurama fans suck. Which is disappointing to me, because I’m a Futurama fan. The image referred to in the message below I had titled ‘Beast’, it was the cover art for the Futurama: Beast With A Billion Backs DVD release. Because a ton of assholes were far too lazy to download it and host it themselves, I took the consequences. I do believe Maiki is working on a hotlinking solution where the image they desire to steal is replaced with a picture of a giant penis or something. (I can only hope!)
I’m writing to let you know that unfortunately we had to deactivate the
http web service on your malnurturedsnay.net domain. A file called
‘beast.JPG’ was being accessed so many times, that it took up all
connections on the apache web service. It appears that you already
deleted the file, but the requests were still coming in. I even tried to
just put up an empty file with the same name to make the connections
faster (instead of having to generate the 404 error), but that wasn’t
enough.The apache service needs a new IP, and your domain needs to stay inactive
for about a day to make sure that no referrers will follow to the new DNS
record. Please write back to me tomorrow, and I’ll turn your domain back
for you. My direct support address is andrea@dreamhost.com.-Andrea D
