Forum Downtime 2017
Hello everyone,
I know there's going to be questions and/or feedback on the recent forum downtime. I tried to keep members of the Facebook page as updated as possible but I understand not everyone who visits the forum was there (An obligatory plug for people to join/follow one of our social media presences here). The forum server license ran out. I have been in contact with zef and the license has been paid again for another two years. We are discussing long-term solutions for this on-going problem. I know the forum is important to a lot of us (me included), and I also do not like that we are having this issue consecutively on an annual basis. I wanted to make sure you guys know that this is an active discussion and we're doing our best. Thank you for the patience. |
Holy crap, I thought that the last downtime only happened a few months ago and no it’s been a year O.O
I’m just glad that is back. |
Thank you very much Koumori and zef!
|
I thought it was gone for good ugh thank god
|
how much does it cost? im so glad that it runs again!
|
I'm so happy to see AHS back again. Thank you for all your work for this place, Koumori and other people running things, I hope you can work out a solution.

Thank you for keeping us updated. I'm very happy it's back, and hope an agreement can be reached :-)
|
I'm so glad it's back, I was feeling pretty much isolated from the news without the forum. Thank you guys!
|
I was starting to think that it was down for good this time as well. Phew! Like others, this is my main JPOP news source.
|
thanks for getting the forum online again. I would like to say, however, whoever is responsible for the facebook group please accept pending requests to join it. I was getting info on the forum downtime from there but people were always asking for the group to be secret and my request to join never was accepted.
|
I'M SO GLAD THE FORUM IS BACK ONLINE!
thank you for all peoples that make it happen. |
Thanks for all the hard work! :)
|
I'm happy everything is back to normal.:heart
It always feels weird not being able to check AHS daily. It becomes routine. But perhaps ownership of AHS would be better in someone else's hands that will actually stay on top of things.:shrug |
I'm so glad AHS is back.
Downtimes like this make me understand how dependent i'm of this forum! |
Thank you so much for everything, Koumori! :heart I'm glad the forum is back and it's going to say up for the next two years.

Welcome back AHS! :D |
So happy it's back, thank you!
|
Yay! AHS is back!
|
Finally, AHS is back!
|
Thank you for everything <3
|
Thanks for everything, guys, we've really missed this place, especially since it always goes down so soon after Ayu's own birthday...
I'm not sure how practical it is, but maybe we could look at having a backup of the forum made in mid-Sept 2019 so if it's unable to be sorted out, the data could be transferred to another platform? Regardless I'm glad to hear the problem won't happen again for a while :) Thanks for all your hard work! |
Thank you, Koumori!!! You rock!!! <3
|
Thank a lot for Koumori and Zef
|
My request to join the AHS facebook is still pending, but I have been reading the posts. So lovely to see how many people still keep up the postitive AHS spirit on a different platform. I missed the forum a lot and I am really glad it's back. The last days felt so... empty haha.
@Koumori and @Zef Thank you so much! |
My request to join the AHS group on Facebook is still pending too. I'm glad we have a group like that to keep us informed in situations like the one we just had.
|
The Facebook group doesn't have one of our moderators as an admin. We chose it as our default outlet because the group already existed, but unfortunately I am not sure who the people are who run it.
|
^one of them HULUFan. I don't know other two
|
Thank you so much Koumori and Zef! Thank you like, seriously. It was never good not being able to see AHS atleast once a day. Maybe we can all agree to make a reminder or something like forum-downtime alert atleast a month before October, or the time when the lease is supposedly going to expire again. lol
And yeah, it was nice to see initiates in Facebook as well. :love |
I was afraid it's going to be AYUNITE! 2.0
I'm glad AHS is back |
Yay! Thank you so much!!! Happy to be back on AHS again :)
|
I'm so glad the forum is back. Thanks!
|
OMG!! Thanks all for all your hard work. I love this forum. It's my everyday diary.
|
I am so glad this place is back! I was trying to find info online about its status.
Like others I visit this place everyday and it is part of my Internet routine. It is also my main source for Ayu and JPop and I was a little lost without it haha! |
To hear that AHS will remain active for at least another two years...warms my heart. :heart
Thank you to all who are keeping this forum full of memories, alive! We'd be nowhere with you. |

First of all, thank you so much Koumori and Zef. I'm so grateful that the forum is back, and its life will be extended for another 2 years at least. Without your hard work, we will not be able to visit the forum and see the people again. The downtime made me realize (again) how attach I am to this forum. Have been here for over 14 years and I'm so used to visit here everyday (or at least 5 days a week nowadays).
I don't have facebook or other social media, so I had to google "ayumi hamasaki sekai" to see if we would get back together. I was so happy when I saw the forum's back message on AHS twitter. Truly, truly thanks to all the people who keep the forum running! |
Thank you for bringing the forum back :D
|
Two more years!
Well, anyways, how long has AHS been up since? (the history of the AHS forum) |

^ Wow, that's quite a long time. From 2003. But what happened to AGN? We know what happened with AYUNITE!, but can we have a refresher why AYUNITE! shut down?
|
Thanks for bringing this forum back.
|
suggestion: Can we set up a donation for this forum?
Like any amount of donation via paypal.. It is part of our contribution to this forum. |
^ I second that. I'd very much like to support this forum in any way.
Thank you for bringing AHS back! I'm not overly active here, but I still look into it everyday. Really missed it during downtime. |
Right now the only one with access to paying for the forum is zef - no other moderator or administrator does, hence why there were issues in the first place.
