    What happened to the forum?

    Morning all.

    As title says, what happened for the last day or so?

    The drop out made me realise I might have a slightly unhealthy addiction to the Blue Screen!

    Regards,

    Hos

    Someone tried to do 2 searches within 30 seconds and it killed the ferret powering the server.

    If it would help at all I could mail in an old singing birthday card from 1990 and the chip in it could be used to store my 76 private messages.

    Maybe it was the virus from the porn site on your PC that took it down in the first place.....

    Yeah it crashed but it has been fine again ever since,
    I honestly thought that you had rebooted and fixed it.
