I'd just installed AdBlock, you see, and then I came here and it immediately crashed when I tried to look at a message. I'm quite glad that's not the problem (because ads suck).

... I know some of us oldbies sometimes go on about how the PPC feels like less of a community nowadays, how there's none of the off-Board interaction we used to get, etc etc.

But when I came down this morning and saw the Board was missing, I knew - just /knew/ - that I'd have emails in my inbox about it. And I did. Over the course of the day, four different people sent me messages about it, and some of those mentioned other people in on the loops.

So thank you, everyone. It's good to know we've still got it when it counts. ^_^

hS, feeling good

So we don't have to panic anymore?

Maybe. Unless a few hours of the site being down doesn't qualify as a 'Great Board Crash'... Probably it'll have to have lasted all day or something, I dunno.

Anyway, I got a "Connection Refused" message when I tried to respond. So I'm guessing the server must've malfunctioned in some way, perhaps a security issue.

(I only got an internal server error. *shrug*)

Perhaps we ought to come up with a contingency plan in case this happens again?

It's still occasionally cutting out over here.

I'd suggest hanging on before we announce it fully over.
