Are you talking about the IPS error? That's gonna happen a bit as the boss plays with the forum settings/scripts.

I never saw that, but I was completely unable to access the site this afternoon. DNS would resolve but the site would not load and pings would go unanswered by the server.

It was at this point that I curled up in a ball on the floor and wept quietly. I'm better now.

There was an ISP problem that Grinler had no control over.

Well, I've noticed at the bottom of the page a section that shows: the time the page took to be generated, a little "heartbeat" icon, how many database queries the page needed, and a note that gzip is enabled.

According to your time stamp, that was during a backup time frame. Not an outage.
