UPDATE (02/15/2013 1731 UTC): We're back up. Everything went as hoped. Thank you again for your patience. If we missed anything and your account is not right, just contact support and we'll get you fixed up.
UPDATE (02/15/2013 1451 UTC): Always takes longer than you think. Revised estimate 1700 UTC.
UPDATE (02/15/2013 1357 UTC): Revised estimate: 1500 UTC.
UPDATE (02/15/2013 0826 UTC): Estimated reopening time is 1400 UTC.
UPDATE (02/15/2013 0446 UTC): We've identified and corrected the bug. We're going to do a conditional rollback, so we'll only be undoing what was done with the extra deposited funds, all other activity will be unaffected. The only thing that might happen is if a vendor shipped a product that was bought with money that is being rolled back, but they didn't mark it as in-transit yet. I'll let the vendors know what to do if this situation arises once we get everything corrected. This is going to take a little longer than a hard rollback, but it will leave most users unaffected instead of affecting everyone. Thanks for your patience, you are being very generous with it :)

A bug was accidentally introduced into the deposit processor today that caused many people's accounts to be credited over and over for a single deposit. We are assessing the situation and will be rolling back the error. I will post updates in this thread. Vendors should not ship any orders until the site reopens. Some orders may be canceled.

I guess he meant they were making some changes themselves, and added some bad code on accident. But, only very few people will ever know for sure 8)

*subscribing*
-
Thanks DPR.
I really really appreciate the maintenance screen with the link to this thread! Extremely reassuring. Very nicely done.
-
I have been around for a while, and have seen multiple glitches/changes occur and there wasn't one that occurred that DPR and the SR staff didn't resolve completely. Don't worry, everything will be worked out
DPR-Thank you for addressing the issue, looking forward to being back online soon.
-
Good luck fixing
Any idea when the Road might be back up?
-
Damn I hope my coins that I just sent to a new address get through :-(
-
thanks for your hard work dpr. I had an order pending a FE for shipment. I hope my order is still listed when the site comes back or my coins back into my wallet. Fingers crossed. Anybody have some reassurance?
-
Damn I hope my coins that I just sent to a new address get through :-(
Mine just hit 6 confirmations.. I am hoping the same.
-
DPR *just* took it down ... so give him and the staff some time. It will be back up soon - but not before the issue is fixed.
-
Thanks DPR.

I wholeheartedly concur ... smooth move, and they are on it as I type 8)

Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die... just for dpr but if iI really want to be a ball suckered I'd compare him to miracle max.. but didn't he retired?
-
Hopefully there is not an issue with a $900 order I just sent out. Hope things are up and running soon!
-
thanks for the hardwork to get the site fixed so orders can be placed ;D
-
Any idea on how long the maintenance is supposed to last? (Wild Guestimates are cool too).
Keep up all the hard work guys. Doing a great job.
-
Thanks for the signed post, lest we wonder and get all paranoid. There are some online communities that could benefit from such transparency. Kudos DPR and crew.
-
Unfortunate, hope the issue is solved today, as I have planned to make an order.
-
Glad there's no one freaking out. This happens from time to time. Thanks DPR for the thorough update!
-
I am really truly appreciating the maintenance page with the link to this thread. So much better than a generic maintenance message and tons of paranoid conjecture here in the forums about what could possibly be wrong with the site, and how DPR isn't doing his/her job well enough (fucking bullshit!), etc.
I'm so sorry this issue happened--I spent 36 of the last 48 hours dealing with critical website issues at my day job IRL, one after the other in a never-ending clusterfuck of mismanagement and poor development, so I completely understand what DPR is going through tonight, with the urgency to get SR back online to satisfy the thousands of users who are patiently waiting to get on with their business here.
As always, and I think I speak for most everyone here (except for Virwex maybe), we are grateful for the time and work that you put into running and maintaining this website, not to mention the risk that must be involved. The world is almost certainly a better place thanks to your vision, and the effort you put into turning that vision into a reality for all of us to utilize and enjoy.
Thanks!

Anyone want to start a betting pool, in ten minute time increments ? - I bid 0.0001 BTC that it comes up inbetween T+2:10 and T+2:20
-
THANK YOU DPR!
As much as I loved $18,000 in my account, I knew something was wrong. Obviously money is something that doesn't come out of thin air lol.
Glad to hear that things will be fixed properly. Such a reassurance. ;D
-
OP updated
-
Good to hear! We all appreciate your hard work
-
Great news, thanks DPR & staff!
-
this is bullshit. vendors should not ship orders? Because you fucked up? And god knows if you will even get my buyer account credited back correctly?
-
It sure was nice seeing that 50k while it lasted. ::)
Oh well, at least you're communicating with us DPR, that's always a plus. Just hope I can get my orders out by tomorrow and nothing is really effected by this.
-
this is bullshit. vendors should not ship orders? Because you fucked up? And god knows if you will even get my buyer account credited back correctly?
Chill dude. DPR will fix everything like he does every time. It is difficult maintaining the site seeing as it's the biggest site on the deepweb.

Wazup7 are we coworkers and don't know it?! Sounds like my last 48 hrs.
-
DPR was advising vendors not to ship orders because some of the orders received tonight were funded with non-existent coins and the vendors would then have been scammed. So he said that to PROTECT vendors ... and it only applies until the issue is resolved (which it sounds like it has been now).
-
this is bullshit. vendors should not ship orders? Because you fucked up? And god knows if you will even get my buyer account credited back correctly?
dude stop being an ungrateful twat. Go buy your shit on craigslist dumbass. I for one understand (not really) the tremendous amount of effot it must take to keep this collossal project going.

Cheers DPR, we appreciate the hard work!

Fuck you man. You say it's because he fucked up? He didn't fuck up he's trying to look out for your best interest and fix a godam bug you selfish ass junkie

Fuck no. Could take weeks you know? I don't want to jinx it
Glad there's no one freaking out. This happens from time to time. Thanks DPR for the thorough update!
Exactly!! No big deal here folks jsut chill out and use the forums for a while. Fuck it. I wanted to deposit some coin in my account to buy some more benzos but I am not gonna go cry in a corner over it. I am just overly excited and happy to be a part of us freedom fighters making a difference on the road.
DPR you are the fucking BEEZ KNEEZ in my opinion so take your time and work the problem I love ya

LOL, I will say this--I would rather spend 48 hours out of 48 hours working to get SR back online, than I would to re-live the shit storm I went through this week. What I do IRL is important and directly helps people and saves peoples lives every day.....but for me, working on SR would still be so much more gratifying ;-) Of course, I'm just on the outside looking in with envy, like the rest of us......
I do love this place, and I am truly grateful for the work that goes into it.
Cunts like @sonofanarchy can go suck 10 cocks and take 6 more in the ass as far as I'm concerned. Fucker doesn't even bother to pretend that he knows what all is going on with this issue. Completely worthless.

I whipped up some cookie lastnight actually, I only use very pure coke an nomore than a gram at a time. I use a small metal candle holder, candle, lil baking soda,butter knife, lil water an coke ofcourse. 1st mix 3 parts 3/4ths of a g in 1st, sprinkle 1:4th soda on top evenly, then add a few drops of water till its mushy, heat it up about 20 seconds it'll fizz an bubble all while mixing it with a penny or butter knife check if any waters left ill let it fizz on the candle a lil longer, take it away from the heat as you'll see it start to clump up+become more solid, now that all the waters cooked off I put it in the freezer for 10 mins at most and bam I always get the alot using this method for those who don't wanna smoke all ur coke. Sorry for the fast directions im watching TV

Wahhhhhhhhhh, my drugs I safely ordered online to my doorstep might take an extra day ::)
Stop being such a pussy cry baby bro. People like you are fucking hilarious, absolutely no appreciation for something as amazing as SR. If you don't like it, fuck off. Things go wrong sometimes and DPR is doing the right thing to delay shipments until it gets revolved.
-
this is bullshit. vendors should not ship orders? Because you fucked up? And god knows if you will even get my buyer account credited back correctly?
Put it this way, were you a vendor would you rather ship an order out that was "paid for" with money that truly wasn't there, and hope to SOMEONE that you're buyer was super duper honest and promised to pay you back the money at a later date. No way in nine hells is that going to happen, DPR is saving money, time and aggravation by advising vendors to not ship out orders to people like you who don't see the whole picture.
-
Thanks for keeping us posted. I remember when the site changed url's thats the only time I honestly ever freaked out.
-
I noticed the message says this will only fix the extra-money accounting errors...
I had a large deposit coming IN this afternoon, which shows up on the blockchain, but was NOT showing up in my SR wallet a couple of hours later, and then the site went down for maintenance right after that! :( Anyone know anything about this? Is my money just gone?
-
No, your money is not gone. As long as it shows up on blockchain, it's not lost. SR will credit your account manually, if necessary, but first wait until the site is back up and see if it is there.
-
+1 scout he is right nola747 I doubt that your deposit will be effected by this at all. So please try not to even think of those thoughts but instead try to keep your mind occupied by something that brings you a lot of pleasure. Got any good drugs?
Or just cuddle up with a blanket and have on some good music or relax in front of the tv petting your favorite cat or dog.
Good vibes
-
+ karma me also lol!
-
Argh nooooooo! I just placed an order today before the stie went down, must have still been "processing" when it went down, does this mean if my order gets auto-cancelled by the SR system as a result of the downtime, will I still get charged a SR transaction cancellation fee??!! Or will I just have a full wallet again? Would seem a bit unfair if those of us that get cancelled transactions get charged a fee, doubt this is the way itd work but thought Id ask.

Well, I sat down to make my very first ever buy on the Silk Road just now and I'm left thinking this is all some elaborate scam! Kudos go to Highkind for such amazing social engineering skills, BTW. ;D

No, no scam. Just unfortunate timing is all
On a side note, in the tab where I have SR loaded, it reads Maintenence...should be Maintenance hehe. Just thought I'd point that out :)
-
Noticed the misspelling earlier as well but I figured they have enough on their hands at the moment ... ;)
-
What exactly was the issue? People who deposit money were getting money over and over?!
-
Hey Roaders!
Really nice to know DPR is re-assuring everyone. Will check in on the site from time to time. This idea(/revolution) is getting better and better, it is evolving and growing towards the right direction. It makes me excited for the possible and probable future endeavours of this site. We are all an integral part of it all, however small the individual contributions are, they add up to become something else, something we all can love and benefit from.
I digress,

I always keep a few order tabs open to make sure I can get order info for packaging and labeling :D
Thanks DPR for posting a Forum link with updates on all unexpected downtime. I remember the pandemonium that occured whenever SR was down for over 3 minutes and 42 seconds. 5 conspiracies at minimum were always posted within 30mins ??? I guess the bug fixing updates scared Alex Jones away like a few suited men talking on bluetooth headsets within 30 meters from him.
I got work to do that doesn't require use of my account right now anyway that I was putting off. Time to craft some packaging for my products!
lol @ maintenance grammar correction

do you really think that SR is administered by Americans in America?
excuse me while I snort another valume

Not to steer the thread off topic.
But, I wonder how many buyers went on a shopping spree before this was caught? Pretty sure I wouldn't have even been tempted.
Also, on a side note. It is good to see venders come in to the forums. It seems some of them never come on the threads. Takes a lil downtime to bring everyone back together.

I second that..!
Thanks DPR

so the estimated time by my calculations for the site being back up is 9 am eastern time.
Let me reinerate that is an estimation. Being a computer guy it baffles me that DPR is so confidant he could give an eta that far ahead
Hey Rosy Me either I would have reported it to SR support the very minute I saw more coin then I should have
-
DPR, even if stealth SR mode is activated (no logo and no photos), the main logo appears on this Maintenance Page. I think it will be better fixed.

Some did place orders with the extras, so vendors will need to check that out. Luckily, those "coins" couldn't be sent away from SR, so no coins went back into the network ... nor will it affect the bitcoin market in general. This was an entirely SR-contained issue.
-

Stealth mode is for vendors who don't want their listings shown. Are you talking about incognito mode? That's the one that gets rid of images, I believe.
-
"This was an entirely SR-contained issue."
More like an SR - COINtained issue. amirite?
Thank you. I'll be here all week.

So, about another 5~ hours?
Or is my UTC times wrong?

Yep, mistakenly called it 'Stealth'. I have it activated, but there is a logo on the Maintenance Page. One more issue, there is a typo in the 'Maintenance' word in the <title> tag. You probably want to fix it.

Yes! Handled much better than last time.....it's almost weird to not have to sift through all the bull shit crazy conspiracy theories this time.....where are you John MLT or whatever you go by now.
I also want to say thank you DPR for updating us. Hopefully this time the site is really back up running better than ever at the original estimated time. Last time it got pushed back a few times, completely understandable...I'm far from an IT expert but this issue seems much more simple to manage than the last.
-
I placed an order with coins that did not get there in error, they were the correct amount. Think my order might still get cancelled?

I remember reading one of the first threads about this before I feel asleep last night ' Something seriously wrong - I have WAY more btc than I should' http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=120716.0 some members were receiving '$10,000's' of fake Bitcoins deposited in their account. I'm happy to see DPR shut SilkRoad down (always safety and security first) and has provided us with an official update quickly - Thank-you DPR! Some friendly advice to anyone who is experiencing SilkRoad going down for maintenance for the first time, please don't panic, forge unfounded conspiracy theories, or troll, it's not the first time SilkRoad has gone down (and I'm sorry to say it, realistically we're not living in a perfect world it probably won't be the last time either). We're all in this boat together, let's keep calm, carry on, and show DPR and the admin team our support. DPR I wish you and the admin team find a secure, safe, and sound solution for this glitch. God speed DPR :)

Not to be 'that guy' (condescending asshole), BUT: how exactly do you recon SR knows that you have incognito mode enabled before you are even able to login?
That feature is tied to your user account, which in periods of downtime you cannot access.
It's not a bug, and it's not a feature. It is what it is, a maintenance page displayed the same way to whoever happens to stumble across it 8)

You are not quite right. SR sets cookies to easily identify you. So, it can be used to hide the logo even on maintenance page, when you even isn't logged in.
-
Hey SR admin,
Thank you for such honest and accurate information , you really are the best place to do business. Bit annoying its happened on a Friday as RM close down over the weekend, so orders will be even more delayed , still it comes with the territory.
Take Care everyone.
Kindest Regards
RP & Team.

Ah, I did not think of that.
However, I would recommenced everyone to consider setting their browsers up to automatically remove cookies (for security reasons).

RM ? - Is that Royal Mail? As in Great Britain?
USA here - just trying to "keep up' on my fellow (world) Road Travelers. - If I did guess correctly. What is their reason for shutting down? Some Holiday exclusive to the UK?
Just curious, and realize this is always a good time to get to know fellow Roaders.

PS. These "glitch" or "setback" times, and I mentioned this back during the great SR Blackout of early Novemer 2012. Are like large storms, that cause neighbors who haven't spoken in months, sometimes years, to come out of their houses since they finally have something in common to talk about.
I grew up on the South Shore of Long Island, and we had the occasional Hurricane make landfall over the years. (I especially remember Hurricane Belle '76). I witnessed the Eye pass over where I was (Shelter Island) at the time. Suddenly it got quiet and calm, and the full moon shone down, and you could see gulls flying way up in the center of the eye. The stars were shining. It was beautiful. Then as fast as that began, wind gusts started coming from the opposite direction from the ones that had just stopped! That was the other side of the storm, and we all had to run back inside.
The next day,after a hurricane, it's almost always sunny and dry, with the sound of chainsaws everywhere. Neighbors with a ladder helping ones without, while that neighbors son is helping the old lady across the street with a chainsaw, cutting down a tree that fell against her home..
I got the feeling it was all part of God's plan. Not a Holy Roller here, I just believe, as Einstein did, that there has to be a greater intelligent force out there, and sometimes throws our toys around so we have to all come out of our caves and interact with each other for a change.
So it's nice to meet you neighbors! As well as see some of you I've talked too throughout the years.

PS Just an idea for DPR - any complainers, that aren't just scared, but are just genuinely self centered, and blatantly critical in the face of the site owner they've been benefiting from all this time, should be the LAST account to come back up. Not for revenge, buy maybe just to teach the old age lesson "Don't bite the hand that feeds"

"This was an entirely SR-contained issue."
More like an SR - COINtained issue. amirite?
Thank you. I'll be here all week.
Booooooooooo.........
;)

Not to steer the thread off topic.
But, I wonder how many buyers went on a shopping spree before this was caught? Pretty sure I wouldn't have even been tempted.
Also, on a side note. It is good to see venders come in to the forums. It seems some of them never come on the threads. Takes a lil downtime to bring everyone back together.
Karma
You inspired me to write the above post. Thanks ! Karma+ to you!

So, about another 5~ hours?
Or is my UTC times wrong?
UTC is 5 hours ahead of EST. If that helps. (on here they use am+pm UTC, though technically they should be using 24:00 time)
If you ever get confused. Just check the weather on www.intellicast.com (from a regular browser). Right at the top it says
"Universal Time: Friday, 15 Feb 2013, 11:21"
-
yeah jagfug nice post/s, +1 to you 8)
-
Some good information in here. If we could get a complete list of errors and bugs, those that have and haven't been fixed (Hopefully None) after the maintenance is over that would be reassuring. A pretty good explanation in the first post however.
-
On a positive note, I sent a legitimate withdrawl (none of these thin air BTC's) yesterday morning which just came through a couple of hours ago. :) Stay sane everybody
-
I wouldn't be surprised if this 'little' glitch effects the value of btc, will have to wait and see but its my prediction.
Ps.
dmtdoo, ukmj and another vendor whose name I can't remember all orders arrived this morning, will finalise as soon as sr back up. ta

I know a guy who knows a guy who knows charlie sheens dog told me wats going on.
The lastest meteor that hit russia this morning was actually a new secret weapon the usa deployed against dpr's headquarters. Little is known but luckily he was able to assimilate into the binary code of the terminal he was using to escape. Since sr was his open page at the time this extra code in the system took the form of bitcoins in the network appearing randomly in peoples wallets.
After reassembling in the next few hours once enough btc network confirmations can be made (which takes a while with a whole person ofc) he plans to reopen and deploy an offensive on the corrupt governments of the world by facilitating the sale of more drugs to more people than the world has ever seen before!
However there are fears since they form the transcended dpr if anyone was able to spend of these btc and they cant be recovered he may suffer symptoms of a stroke victim.

and here i was worried my packages were caught, however thanks for the info, now i know whats up.

VERY VERY PROFESSIONAL DPR OF THAT HE INFORMED THE KOMUNITI

To all those thinking this will affect BTC prices...
It wont.
That is all.
-
glitches ,virus or whatever,shit happens,but you have to give SR serious credit for bringing SR to each and everyone of us,coz I can tell you if it ever disappeared Id be so gutted.These guys need a serious round of applause for making our lives so much more enjoyable.
Cheers SR
-
Nobody is freaking out, only one person is pitching a fit & there are no conspiracy theories being bandied about. Everyone is so calm - no MTL Johns running crazy - awesome! Good job admins - including a link to this thread seems to have kept peace in the village. Updates are appreciated. Long live SR!
-
Thanks for updates and quick addressing to the issue.
Good luck in fixing everything, hope you meet the revised ETA and we'll all be back on track ASAP. :)
-
I had dream/fantasy last week that my SR account was accidentally credited with 30,000 bitcoins due to a programming glitch. I had to hurry to withdrawal the funds to my personal wallets and move them around before anyone noticed or shut the site down to stop me.. . . I was a millionare and so happy. . . . what a coincidence, I guess it could actually happen someday. Keeping my fingers crossed that an error is in my favor someday hhhehe. lol I'd give it all back.. :-)
-
UPDATE (02/15/2013 1357 UTC): Revised estimate: 1500 UTC.
Another hour we can handle. Thanks for the update!
+ if you can't make that one, push it to1700 UTC That's 12noon East Coast USA, we can wait till lunchtime! ;D
I'm just dying to know whose package got intercepted by customs. Nothing like an Amsterdam postmark to keep it stealthy! :-\
Peace

The constant updates are really nice and reassuring. Thanks DPR. You're pretty much my savior.

Yeah, cheers for the updates and for linking this thread off the main site. Much appreciated DPR!

indeed guys nice1...x

Last night when they said they found the problem and that it would be fixed shortly, I assumed when I woke up the next morning things would be more than fixed. I see they keep revising the BS time estimates: it would be better to not state any estimate at all than to repeatedly miss the estimate and continually extend it. You guys wouln't even attempt to fix the issue if it weren't a problem costing DPR and SR money. If the deposits were showing up short instead of over, would they have done anything but smirk and slowly remedy the problem? It just seems as if the only issues that ever really get remedied are the ones affecting the bottom line. Even scammers aren't addressed until it fucks SR's money up.
I was fine with this maintenance BS until I remembered the fact that all of us are paying for the use of the SR system. The admins aren't doing us a favor, they are earning their supper.

Yeah, all of us are paying for the use of the SR system - I'm fine with that. No big deal if it goes down due to a glitch once in a while.

Man i would of loved to have seen 10k in my account or something like that.. It would of been even greater if they said well 'were not loosing our money so keep it guys' Man wouldnt that be great !!!
I would pulled 6k off and into real cash and order the rest in H and Benzo's..LOL

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed. Look earlier in this thread around last night: I posted completely calmly and even praised the admins. However, when you are being paid to provide a service, you should take it more seriously than providing obviously false updates to simply buy some more time.
Think of it this way:
You are horny and your girlfriend/boyfriend keeps refusing your advances. It would be foolish to expect her/him to just fuck you at your every whim. Now assume you go to meet a prostitute and she also refuses to have sex with you. At this point, you CAN get mad because the ONLY PURPOSE served by the prostitute is to fuck you for money. Similarly, the only purpose of SR is to stay open so they can fuck us for BTC. Stop looking at this as someone doing us a favor, and as somebody doing THEIR JOB so they can get paid.

You obviously never tried to fix anything IT related. Fix one thing, something else breaks. It never goes as planned, ever. This is not unacceptable, yet.

Well said Sonic...why should he suck it up? Beware of the scammer set up a log in page asking for my pin ha ! Apparently for security they are requestoing your pin...The site would never do that unless you're making a purchase.

Why should we suck it up? (vague) The only thing you can change is your reaction to a situation. Because theres nothing else to do but wait! :D
But again -- computers are mysterious, and every server goes down sometimes... even google.

You're a right ignorant asshole, aren't you? They are doing their fucking best man. How do you actually pay to use SR? I do as a vendor, the money comes from my pocket not the buyers.
Are you a vendor?
I would rather the site run smoothly and have to have a couple days offline a month than for it to fuck up all the time.
Updates aren't fake - you obviously don't have a fucking clue about coding.. one single character out of 100000000000 characters could be wrong and it fucks the whole thing up. If you are annoyed at SR, by all means go and don't come back.

Whatever, nobody cares what I have to say, anyway. I make a few posts that aren't dick-riding the admins, that actually critique performance that deserves critiquing and my karma goes from -1 to -4. My opinion now means nothing to any observer (not that it ever did) simply because I expressed dismay that we are given time-frames that are unrealistic. You claim I have nothing to do with bug fixes, but when I did I surely didn't put false ETAs up to placate my user base. That is irresponsible IT work. Thanks for the negative karma, maybe some of you will get to share some when you inevitably start bitching the more of these fake ETAs they blast on through. This is over 12 hours now, not even Blizzard does maintenance that sloppily, anymore. What use is there even trying to participate in an online community with such retribution that you are completely discredited the moment you cross the line and stop praising the admins endlessly?
Thank you all-knowing DPR for keeping us updated with several ETAs that meant less than the characters that made the sentences up.

Site is up, nothing to see here.
-
I have -5 and no idea why. I wouldnt worry about it to much..

I'm still getting the maintenance error. :-\

If there was as many coders here than on the Blizzard team, the site would be done in no short order.
If you think it's unacceptable, go start another site. Better yet, hang yourself.

And we're back! ;)

And we're back! ;)
confirmed.. Good job DPR
-
Good job SR team! Up and running. Bit congested from all the people trying to log on lmao
-
We definitely are back! And sonic, you seem to view SR as a right and not a privilage. You DO know that most of the drugs sold here are illegal right??? I personally keep the mindset that SR could be gone in an instant, everyday.
-
thanks, i was getting worried I wouldn't get an order in today.
appreciate the hard work you guys put in.
-
My account is $-160
Serves me right, lol. Let's see if I can get these orders canceled...

OP updated

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that I will be dead soon, but hanging isn't the method. I'm more creative than that, though I won't go into detail.
-
100% back up. I was one of the users whos funds were affected. Can confirm everything is in order and exactly the way it should be. As much as I loved having $16,000 randomly come into my account, I'm glad to hear its back up and my REAL coins are properly in my wallet.
Although it appears to be very very few of us, I CANNOT believe I see people bitching. I personally think the SR staff and DPR were on top of this matter instantly. I was one of the first users to report the bug and I saw step by step how the staff responded. This was fixed in ~12 hours. Amazing developers we have here. I would only wish I had the smarts that DPR and this staff has to keep such an amazing website running while having governments try to shut it down.
*clap clap clap* I salute all of you! Including this whole community.
Peace and love. Long live SR and DPR! Keep up the good work my brothers and sisters.
And Sonic wtf? No one wants to know you'll kill yourself. Chill out. LOOK! Everything is back up and running fine! Why should you be so down? Goddamn. Be thankful for what you got. Nobodys hating on you. The only hate you'll get is what hate you bring to the table.
-
Any info on when we will be able to transfer coins?

I don't mean to blast on you too much but Blizzard recently performed an update that was scheduled for 8 hours then secretly pushed to 10 and then pushed up to 12. On top of that they had emergency maintenance shortly thereafter which resulted in a another 3 hours of down time. Just saying, although it sucks, it happens even with a team as big as them.
Also I wish death nor suicide on no one so I hope you don't resolve to that. But the site is back up now so thanks DPR for all your hard work!
-
Word, got those two orders canceled, still negative .15btc, no biggie.
Glad everything got sorted out tho.
-
I wonder, if my orders went through and my account was put negative, what does this mean for others who went crazy with orders? Can't they just ditch their accounts now? This would mean SR is losing out on some money.
-
UPDATE (02/15/2013 1731 UTC): We're back up. Everything went as hoped. Thank you again for your patience. If we missed anything and your account is not right, just contact support and we'll get you fixed up.
Thank-you for keeping us updated every step of the way DPR, and much thanks to you and your admin team for solving this bug much faster than the other glitches SilkRoad has experienced in the past. I'm also happy to see a lot less panic and trolling ensued on the forum than usual, which probably has a lot to do with you linking to this thread, good thinking! Happy travels everyone :)
-
any idea when withdraws will be working again?
-
Well done. Normally I should start worrying with these kinds of bugs, but each day I pass on SilkRoad, the more impressed I get with the support team. DPR personally sent me a message with all orders that were glitched so I could cancel them. Never would I have noticed there was a bug if it wasn't from that message. Thank you for keeping yourselves alert and quick to resolve the problems.
-
Like an idiot, I kept refreshing the ./silkroad/closed page, thinking it was still down. HAHAHA. :-)
-
Like an idiot, I kept refreshing the ./silkroad/closed page, thinking it was still down. HAHAHA. :-)
I was doing the same and I can't fucking believe it haha.
-
I'm happy the site is back up! I'm curious if everyon's btc's are temporarily frozen from withdraw or just a select few?
As far as I can tell, all the BTC's I have are from legit finalized orders. I'm sure they just wanna double check everything. Wouldn't mind and ETA if possible, like before it's very reassuring :)
-
Thank you DPR for always coming through....I hope you have a rewarding weekend.
-
Been waiting 5-7 days now, just to make a withdrawal. I am trying to get MY money out.
any word on when withdrawals will be working again? This is becoming VERY annoying.
Thanks!
-
I made a withdrawal last night ... took about an hour before it even showed up on blockchain, but it did go through. I also sent DPR a message today around 11am to let him know about today's withdrawal problems ... haven't heard back.
-
Let's get some updates! [ even if DPR is out at a party ]
-
This seems worrisome guys.
I've been waiting two days as well, and blochchain.info reports that a TON of bitcoins have been cashed out in 50 BTC increments (always hundreds of exchanges of less than a bitcoin).
-
don't you think that is just the coin tumbler at work?
-
don't you think that is just the coin tumbler at work?
\
no, i literally cannot withdraw.
I get an error screen saying withdrawals are disabled
It's been like that all week for me
Im not terribly worried tho. I was just hoping to sell some of my spare coins (---EDIT-- A little too specific on the amounts---EDIT---).
SR has never dissapointed before, just takes some time
-
Man that blows. How much you trying to pull out? Does anybody have access to the vendor forum, see if they are having problems as well?
-
CrazyBart -- I was talking to fartsinthewind.
There seem to be different errors people are experiencing.
I messaged DPR this morning at 9am pacific time and haven't yet heard back but I'm sure when he sees the message, he will address the problem or fix it.
-
I just made a withdrawal and didn't get any errors. Will report back on how it goes in a few hours
-
Yeah, I received all of the coins I withdrew last night without issue. That tells me that this is not a universal problem ... which makes me want to suggest again that if you are having problems and have not yet contacted support, you probably should do so in order to help them know which accounts are having issues.
-
Went through faster than ever. Got my coins within 20 minutes. So, like scout says, there's probably a problem with your account.
-
Thanks for confirming that, caerus.
-
GOGO DPR!!!
Those cocksuckers will never catch you.
;D

Good to hear! hopefully these issues are now being worked out.
-
So, what's going on with the withdrawals?
I withdrew $500 from my buyer account on here to this account so I could start up being a seller, over 15 hours later and nothing...and nothing is on blockchain either.
Guess I should just wait and it'll sort itself out? I'm a little worried all that BTC just went poof into thin-air...that would suck.
-
Please, if you are having problems, be sure you message support over on SR to explain what is going on. The forums and the marketplace are two separate entities, which means we are not able to do anything from our end here on the forums, and I'm not sure if support keeps up with these posts.
-
Scout, I'd be very happy to follow your advice but THEY ARE NOT ACKNOWLEDGING ANYONE'S EMAILS about LOST MONEY!
I am very happy to be here, but, my god, I am so tired of being in the dark over this issue............
-
We absolutely understand where you're coming from. We're doing our best to get in touch with DPR and the admins ... and you have my personal apologies for the lack of communication.
-
It has been over 24 hrs since I made a withdrawal from my account and it has not landed

Same here. Glad I checked the forums, was worried that I was the only one.

48 hours+ here waiting for a withdrawal to hit the blockchain...
Has anyone done an actual support ticket?

I so appreciate your assistance, Scout. We are now going on day four in four hours.
Tell me, is this normal for them to just go missing like this? The ire building up inside those of us that came here with good intent to make our lives nicer, richer, more colorful is turning out to be more like a pall of deep gray that is dissolving into black, bleak resentment.
This is not a site-wide problem. There's no need to incite panic among all of the members by posting so many new threads telling people not to deposit and that DPR is involved in this issue.
I understand you are upset and worried.
They all have lives outside of SR, so it's very possible that DPR is out of town or away from the computer for the weekend.
-
All I'm saying is that starting multiple threads in every forum to incite more panic is not the way to address the situation. A warning is fine, but spamming it and accusing DPR / the admin of stealing is not going to help anything.
-
So its still not safe to use SR?
-
What? It is safe - it hasn't been compromised or anything like that. Some users are experiencing serious delays in their deposits/withdrawals.
-
Just made another withdrawal and everything works as it's supposed to ::). To see if there is a problem is with your account, try creating a new one and sending it over through SR. Then try withdrawing from that account.
-
So to be clear ... who, exactly, is experiencing this problem besides Scurry?
-

Me
3 days. My withdrawal has not landed. No help from support
-

2.5 days no sign of my withdrawal. Sent Support a message.
-
Personally I'm having a problem where the funds from finalized orders aren't showing up in my account. Any other vendors seeing this?
-
this has happened to me on 2 different accounts.
-
Been 2 days, still no signs of my withdrawal. No response from support. DPR's probably unaware partying somewhere...lol
-
Seems like some people are getting responses now. I haven't, but at least some have. lol
-
responses saying what?
-

I don't know what problem you mean specifically, but I deposited about 70 hours ago, taken through the tumbler about 65 hours ago, nothing has happened. Messaged support about 30 hours ago, still appears to be unread.
For what it's worth, my deposit is surely amongst the smallest.
-
It doesn't matter what size it is, onetwothree, every missing deposit is important to address. It seems that some people are starting to get their deposits ... so I'm assuming this means SR Support is now online and resolving the issue. I can't be 100% sure about that because I still haven't heard anything from anyone, but people are reporting receiving messages on SR from Support ... so hopefully it's true.
Also, it is the weekend, so perhaps that is why Support has been a bit slower to respond. Just speculating.
-
Just to chime in and join the masses waiting a deposit of couple hundred dollars. I confirmed on blockchain that it his my SR address and was then whisked away a few minutes later.
Sent message to support, but it is still unread.
I think it's fair to say that for every person commenting here, there are two or three just lurking waiting for an answer (i.e. like I was).
If it's true some people are getting deposits with problem, would it be safe to try and deposit to a new account ?
I realize it's the weekend, but there are people with a lot more money on the line than me and who would be a bit more pressed for time..support should be a bit more visible.
-
According to someone in another one of these threads, DPR sent them a message 2 hours ago apologizing for the delay and sending their coins along.
So ... that's great!

I admire your optimism ;p but I will wait for a first hand account.. and given the time (and size of this mess), it looks like I'm going to be waiting for at least a 4th day to make an order, booo-urns!
-
my withdrawals went through.
-
I received a 75% refund from resolution however nothing was refunded to my account.
I wonder if this has anything to do with it.
-
My withdrawals never went through but the coins were credited back to my account.
-
Ok, my pesimism was unfounded it seems. Deposit went through and got a message from DPR apologising for delay. It would be nice to have a public announcement or apology, but it was only 2 days for me, so I'll live :)
-
It took about a day and a half to be reimbursed for my disappearing withdrawal funds after opening up a ticket. Not bad, I actually thought it would take longer!
Don't worry guys, it seems the SR staff are burning the midnight oil to get everyone's funds back into their possession.
-
Looks like he has returned from his weekend at the Treasure Cove. Deposit showing now. I'm squared away.

SR Support got back to me and fulfilled the refund.
Thanks

Finally able to withdraw. We are all good
Like i said, everything at SR runs on drug dealer time
