Recently I deleted all my videos/account from revver.com; however, my name is unfortunately still linked to revver.com site with many Google Search Engine results. Revver.com fails to give Google Search Engine recognizable Standard Error 404 Error pages for deleted videos. Revver.com customer support department did not answer to my question at all. I did not want money, all I asked is the removal of deleted video links from Google Search Engine Index. I will never upload any video to revver.com.

http://www.zolaenterprises.com did an article on it and seems revver has been down weeks at a time many times. Seems shocking now when it works. Also seems they are not really tracking anyway on most those sites an video pages. Also the guys and people there have not been paid in so long with some of them that they are getting scared. Read this.

Foo Bar, I was thinking the same thing. My startup consists of a server and myself. Self funded startups will survive this recession while the hyped and over funded startups will crash and burn. Hey TC, you need to deadpool my competitor dabble.com. I am not trying to be spiteful, but I was surprise that you review them, but not me. Must be a west coast thing???

We contacted Live Universe founder and CEO Brad Greenspan about it, who says the downtime is simply a part of migration to a new data center in Los Angeles that has “lots of servers.”

Haha… i guess new data center with “lots of servers” ran out of space for Live Universe!

Just chiming in to say I have been trying for 2 days and can’t get on… and I use Revver for my rss and to stream my episode archive page of 50 + videos…I guess I mean I “used” revver. Would be nice for anyone over there to speak up.

An update–

Revver has been down for more than 7 hours now.

This is the message I get when I try to access them..

“Oops! This link appears broken.
DNS error – cannot find server.”

I am glad Revver came back or I would have to switch to some other video platform and update 100+ posts on my site.

Well, looks like the issue has finally been remedied! I can finally access the site no probs.

Dunno who’s fault it was…Time Warner’s or Revver’s, but I spent 3 days working it out with the technicians from my ISP and it looks like it’s finally been fixed. Ticket escalated, ticket escatlated, ticket escalated, you know the drill.

Did a Run cmd promt and pinged Revver’s IP address to give them the necessary info. to show them where the connection was failing. They scheduled a tech to come out, but right before he came out, he called to tell me he couldn’t access the site either on his Time Warner connection, and that he would report it as an issue not related to just one person’s computer/Internet connection.

Ticket escalated again. Issue fixed…finally. Thank goodness.

@revversux: Revver has always paid me, and their site and forums have NOT been shut down. But yes, this last time around, I have not been paid…yet. Hopefully, it’s only a temporary issue. Obviously, Live Universe really needs to get its act together…and quickly. If they don’t, then Revver may eventually be no longer, and Live Universe will likely see quite a lot of lawsuits. In the meantime, I’m just glad I can finally access the site.

I’ve started a site to collect testimonials from people who haven’t been paid by Revver (or Peerflix, or whoever else) ever since Live Universe bought them. If you’re one of the people getting hosed, let me know about it! http://www.live...s-me-money.com/

@Dot TV: Yes, they’ve addressed it in for forums, but didn’t go into any details as to what’s actually happening and why. Here’s what was posted:

“If you’re using Time Warner to connect to the internet, you probably haven’t been able to access anything Revver related (including this post) for a couple days. We’re working on getting that fixed.”
