Greetings witch,   :)

I think it was down because I had trouble with both sites after having come home from work... about 11:30pm EST.  Not sure what went wrong though, probably upgrading / maintenance?   ???

Down for me as well. 

So, how've you all been since the blackout?  Did you manage to get through it OK?   ;)

Was a surprise to see it down last night. Used to be a common thing here a few years back.

Hahaha.. You guys are hilarious. No, your not crazy. Yes, the forums where down along with the entire server.

For the technically savvy, our datacenter upgraded some equipment (8 had it right), and that changed the routing of our subnet and gateway. Resulting in a server that had no internet. Took 12 hours of messaging back and forth with the datacenter - and I got it back online! Just for you guys!!!

A quote from my favorite author (Douglas Adams):
"We're sorry for the inconvenience"  :)

Thanks for the clear-up.  Had gone into a slight panic, because I managed to catch the .org site for about 15 or so minutes yesterday morning, just long enough to see the incredible update, then everything went dark!  heheheh...  ;)  after about half a day, I'd begun to think we were going to get a surprise new forum look, or something!  ;)   I beg, pray, when that day comes, the forum goes back to having a black backdrop, background... ohhh, it's just so much easier on the eyes, especially at night.  Thank heaven for bringing everything back online for us!  I can breathe a sigh of joy, relief, now.  Cheers Brixton!  :)

Been a long time since the forum has gone down. Used to be a regular occurrence 6 years ago, went down for a couple of weeks once. 
Title: Could do with a more 'From Here' forum look update... wink, wink, nudge, nudge.

Wow!  :o  The nmabrix backdrop utilizes a more 'Between Dog and Wolf' colour scheme, sweet!  And, although it may not possess a pitch black background, it's certainly easier on the eyes than the overpowering brightness of the Winter default setting.  Cheers for the heads-up/tip, jjp666!  :)
