Major Site Failure

[KeithD]

The hard drive on the server became critical at midday yesterday and it took many hours to even confirm the problem before I could start work on fixing it. This work is still ongoing, and may take a while yet. :xxmixed-smiley-017:

I am closely monitoring the server every few minutes to ensure people can still maintain some form of access, however the forum may be switched off again at some point.

Seriously ... although I made a :joke: about it :yeahthat: on the 'Arcade' thread, Keith ... I'm sure each and every one of us is grateful to you for the tremendous effort you've put in to keep the site afloat. :68711_thanx:

I was starting to wonder whether it was another website censored, (not allowed skype and various other things here).... Good to know you're on top of it, but I'm sure it's been a busy 24 hours!
