I suppose everyone has heard by now what the problem was, but just on the off chance that someone hasn't, here's the scoop. Basically, we are too big for our own good!!! The number of people viewing the forums was so large that it crashed the server several times, which tends to make the other people who use that server a trifle testy!

Bob's computer was in the shop, so the server couldn't get ahold of him, and so they just closed our access to keep the whole server up and running.
Talk about being shot in the foot by your own success...
