Yay!

Any information on what the problem was?

I’m so thankful.

Don’t DO that to me!

Happy Happy Joy Joy! I felt SO picked-upon - a chatroom I use was also down tonight, as was another message board. Strangely enough SDMB is the first one to come back to life! Odd, but wonderful!

I figured it was just the normal board afternoon crappiness. Then I get back and notice there were no posts for 5 hours. Guess no one else could get in either. The hamsters weren’t just overworked, they were passed it on the side of the road.

Does make it easier to catch up, I suppose.

I’m not sure what the precise reason was. Maybe the server just went bonkers.

Perhaps **Tubadiva** or **jdavis** will drop by later to explain.

Oh, this one came back up before we got around to open the back up board for posts.
