Question What was up?

Was I the only person that couldn't get to MBWorld for the past 24 hours or so? I couldn't access the site from my home PC or work (not that I waste valuable time when I'm at work, mind you). Yet, when it magically reappears about half an hour ago, it looks as if it's been business as usual for the rest of you.

What's up with that?

Hmmm - possible, but I have two different ISPs at home & work. At least one other user reports that same problem, so I'm not yoo-neek here!

No, the main website, www.mbworld.org was temporarily down. It is back up now.

Q for those who had access problems: did you try to access the forum through the main site www.mbworld.org or did you get here by going straight to forums.mbworld.org? If you did the former, that would explain it, since the main server was down...
