Everyone is welcome here! This happened about the same time last year. Lots of poop got lost, I think. Hopefully this will not be nearly as bad.

From ProBoards..... It could be a lot worse! Status: At this time the server your forum is hosted on is offline. Until this issue is resolved you will be unable to access your forum. We are aware of this outage and are working to restore service as quickly as possible.
Additional Details: -- UPDATE -- We have requested that if the Data Center cannot identify the problem in the immediate future that the servers be moved to another location and brought online there. If this turns out to be the needed course of action we will ensure the transition is seamless for users. « Last Updated: 8 minutes ago »
-- ORIGINAL MESSAGE -- -- UPDATE -- One important thing to note - No forum data is at risk as a result of this outage. When the servers become accessible again, all forums will be as they were when the servers went down. -- UPDATE -- Unfortunately we still do not have an estimated time for the servers to be back online. The Data Center has ruled out a switch issue and are checking all possible locations on the network for the cause of the problems. Until we hear from them, we will not be able to give any estimates ourselves. I shall post regular updates from now even if there is no new information so you know we are still investigating the issue.
The problem has been narrowed down to 4 specific ports on the switch which connects these servers to our back-end network. We are currently looking into the most effective solution to this situation.
-- UPDATE -- At this time we have confirmed there are network issues with 2 of our forum servers.
We are working with our Data Center to rectify these issues as soon as possible.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
