Glad to have the forum back up and running after the problems today.

SQL can be a pain sometimes. It happens on almost every site I know. Usually SQL is the first to go, it needs to be restarted every now and then.

I checked this morning and saw the problems. I'm glad everything got fixed.
I couldn't do anything at all if I was logged in. But strangely enough I could log out and browse around fine.

Yeah, I noticed this problem too.
Seems to be gone now though.

Afaik, MySQL and PostGreSQL is pretty rock-solid.

Sometime the hosts run out of space, so they cant write to the file or something.

Huh. I guessed I missed it? The forums went down for a while?

[rridgely]

It was only for a few hours(I think.) I got on in the morning before I left and when I got home that afternoon it was working again.

Those SQL errors TwistedMetal spoke of are they those that I see every once in a while when visiting some forums, where it will state something like ("I don't remember the exact wording"): MySQL Error Line 43.
Then again I've seen sites like that which never load and always result into an error page.

Idk it loaded to a white screen a big text box in the middle that said something about the database being broken or something...it was early in the morning.

It came up as SQL error 145. I copied and pasted it and sent it to Piriform as I couldn't reach anybody here obviously. They sent me a nice thank you e-mail back as they hadn't known about it.
