Now, I am actually wondering if it makes sense for us to always come up with a new "forum down" thread anytime we try accessing the forum and can't due to maybe an unplanned maintance or something similar, we all know that anything can happen any time as long as the internet is concerned, if it's not a ddos attack, it could be other unprecedented issues with the server, or the host, which could cause the forum to go offline at any time without prior notice, the admin can't be blamed because it's absolutely no fault of his, infact, he's been working really hard to ensure the smooth running of the forum as far as I can tell.
We should expect things like this to happen from time to time; and not come up with threads like this every time the forum is unaccessible for whatever reason, for we all know it will always come back up even though it takes some time.
