Yay! The sites back, pity we lost the links to attachments yet again. Oh and the chat clients cabbaged. The price you pay I guess. ::)

OK, so when does the chat work again, and when will this idiot server realise that I *am* a member. Because I am! I've written countless works of Simpsons fanfiction! I've spent the best years of my life in this club! I don't understand why this is supposed to happen to me! Why is the server so stupid?

No death threats.  I mean it.

I had a bit of a tough time getting onto the site. I eventually just hacked through the block. ;)

And just what is a w00t? ??? I hear that everywhere and I don't know what it means! 1 d0n'7 5p34k L337! :P ;D

I fixed the chat.  I'll look in to the membership thing.  Steve should be able to fix it...

Oh, did you actually try logging in, Chris?

No, I did *not* try to log in non-stop for the last 24 hours! Sheesh... I'm sorry about the death threats, but the computer claims that I'm a guest. I am not a guest. I've won the Best Author prize two years running (yes, I'm bragging, but I've always wanted to say that), I figure I have the right of a *some*what more honourable treatment. Not to mention, I can't even get to my own PM's. And to top it off, every single one of *you* seem to have no problems. It's not fair.

I won't kill anyone. I just want some answers.

Well like I said in that other thread above this one, it's a bug in the software.

THis goes for everyone now.  Don't instantly assume that someone is out to get you just because something doesn't work.  I've had to deal with people like that in the past and it caused a lot of acrimony, and cause them to leave for no good reason.  I don't like it when that happens.

Mmmm, nothing like computer glitches to blow up a board.

;) I was having the same problem as you were, Chris.  I just couldn't post about it here, because of that "guest" thing.  Things seem to be going fine now.  I'm glad to see that the board is back up. :)

At last the board is back! Now let's hope it won't break down again anytime soon, because that happened way too often since Sunday (at least when I tried to reach it).
