Last night, the forum went offline, and I woke up to a flood of messages from people worried they had been banned. But don't worry, that’s not the case.
It looks like something overloaded the database yesterday, which caused my hosting provider to automatically disable the forum. I'm currently investigating what triggered it. It could be due to new limits imposed by the host... they've recently rebranded and seem to be tightening restrictions. It could also had been due to that the cover images now was hosted on the server.... so I disabled that as well...
If it turns out the host can't handle the forum's needs, I'll look into moving to a better provider. In the meantime, just be aware that more unexpected downtime might occur. But again, if the forum is down and you see the "No Access" red flashing page of death, you're not banned.
Thanks for your patience!
