I just noticed a LOT of downtime here, what's going on?

I moved the forum to another server this weekend. The forum shouldn't have been unavailable for more than a few hours for most people...

I was getting 'unavailable' messages constantly. I think it successfully loaded about 3 times since all the downtime started.

I have received a few e-mails today from people still not able to reach the forum on the new server. I also noticed that I still get the old server from my cell phone...hmm

I've seen it down since few days, for what this is worth...

This is probably the 6th time I've seen it up since the downtime began.

Is the "Unavailable" message just a censored version of a 'can't connect to database' error?

No the unavailable message is how the forum looks on the old server.

Make sure forum.gbadev.org resolves to 66.230.164.115

Not had a problem here. Didn't notice any downtime.
