Our host is currently installing some new hardware and as a result for the next hour or two there may be a few technical issues. These will be temporary. The hardware upgrades are all designed to make delivery quicker and smoother.
Currently the MySQL database server is down so items such as the gallery and advert software isn't functioning. It will be back to normal shortly*

As in "Your website is important to us, and will be answered shortly"?

Cats know your every thought.

But don't care.

Other hosts were not willing to take on an MSSQL database the size of the forums (currently its well over 400MB and the log is well over 500MB - mental reminder - shrink the log!).
Most shared hosting allows up to a total of 50MB!
