Hi everyone,
I hope you all had a nice day off from FiPG. I know I did!

Basically, a website on the server went bonkers and used up all the MySQL resources on FiPG's box, rendering the entire site unusable, since everything on here is powered by databases.

Once my webhost identified the problems (about 5 hours after they appeared) he fixed them, then took the opportunity to update the software on the server. That took another hour, and then I took the opportunity to rotate about 8 gigs of apache logs which took another two hours, which brings us roughly to right now. Hopefully, everything should be smooth for a long time. As far as I know, the last set of downtime was over two months ago.

Nope, A4F is running DB optimization, should be backup within the next half hour.

Is anyone else having problems accessing the forums w/Firefox? When I go to form.freepiodguide.com, it prompts me to download something.

Nothing's changed or updated as far as the forums go. Just the underlying software on its server.
