We’re incredibly sorry to those who couldn’t get their dose of motherly and fatherly fob love yesterday and this morning. I was out (as in comatosed) the entire day/night after pulling an entire weekend in arch studio, so I didn’t know that the sites were down until this afternoon.

Here’s the funny part: Teresa’s piano teacher first told Teresa’s mom, who then Skyped Teresa (who’s currently in Cyprus—as in the Mediterranean), who then Facebook msged me sad faces and question marks.

I was on the phone with a Bluehost IT guy for more than half an hour and finally got our websites back up. Rest assured, our accounts weren’t hacked—we only ate up too much CPU to get us in trouble. Thanks to your parents, we’re now infamous and on Bluehost’s “watch list”.

In fact, we’ve used up the most CPU out of any other Bluehost account member. Here’s a direct quote from the notes added about why we were suspended. It was intended for the tech wizards, who only forwarded it to me since I asked what was up:

“They have used 321072 CPU Secs since Feb 20th and the next highest user is at 91152 CPU Secs.”

I’ve installed a caching system and optimized the SQL tables…so hopefully everything will run smoothly from now on. If we get suspended again, tell your parents they’re just too funny and e-popular.

Our fellow Chinese readers (from China) said they couldn’t access our content via the websites, so I’ve fixed the feeds to show full-length entries and created (not one, not two, but) three twitters to tweet those feeds. What? Too much?

Many people have asked us to combine the two sites into one—and we’ve really considered the pros and the cons—but we just can’t change what we’ve already branded. We don’t want to confuse any more readers, so if you would like to receive MMIAF, MDIAF, & WUINK updates, please follow or subscribe to Wuink’s twitter. If you want to follow the sites individually, MMIAF has a twitter and so does MDIAF.

Happy tweeting and Happy Niu Year!
