The forum was down for several hours from approximately 1 AM eastern time until the time of this post.

It looks like someone at our provider's data center messed up with redundancy and maintenance windows.

From their support forum:

Quote:

The event started at approximately 12:00am and our initial
investigation showed that both of our transport circuits that connect
our San Antonio Data Center to our Dallas POP were down and not able
to pass traffic.
...
We have identified that both of our transport carriers have a maintenance ongoing that is affecting our network connectivity between San Antonio and Dallas.
...
PEER 1/Serverbeach utilizes redundant providers and our transport circuits were originally provisioned on diverse routes to prevent incidents of this nature. We will be performing a full physical audit on our all of our circuits in light of this issue to determine why a commonality would exist between our two providers and how one maintenance could be affecting both paths.

Hopefully, everything should be working fine now.

Sorry for any inconvenience, withdrawal pains, spilled coffee, broken furniture, and anything else this outage might have caused :)

To ADMIN,
No apologies required. We usually spill the coffee from some of the jokes, get frustrated from the obtuse questions, and get withdrawal after we hit "SEND". LOL. You're doping a fine job although I sometimes wonder about some of the restrictive editing, but accept your moral standard as being sensible.
This site is down less than YAHOO, and this particular crash wasn't even caused by fault on your part, so rest easy. I'm sure there are others here that appreciate your skills and efforts.
Best regards and HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY.

Caused me to have to go to bed early out of boredom and then lay there with the shakes for hours....I guess I needed the "rest" anyway.
