Of course if there were a technical forum here, or a sticky, then everyone would get their answer. :roll:

Since there is not, Internet Brands (board owners) had a 3 hour (their number) outage today.
This wasn't the only board that was down.
They're back up now.

Jazzmyn 08-16-2011 04:07 PM

Couldn't get on here and a couple other boards either...I thought it was my server Glad to hear I wasn't the only one.

meemersmom 08-16-2011 04:10 PM

Not sure but I am so glad that its back up and running :thumbup:

Patty Patches 08-16-2011 04:18 PM

ME TOO

sewgray 08-16-2011 04:18 PM

I couldn't get on either, I was forced to do some laundry.

pojo 08-16-2011 04:18 PM

I thought it was just me too.
What a relief it is working again.

thelondonzoo 08-16-2011 04:22 PM

I couldn't log on either. So glad you're all back! :D

scraphq 08-16-2011 04:33 PM

For free, I won't complain, but I certainly am happy to find we are still here!

annyroony2 08-16-2011 04:35 PM

I had trouble getting on also. Took me several hours, but finally here.

katier825 08-16-2011 04:35 PM

I think it's good for the server to go down sometimes. It forces us to step away from the computer and actually quilt, rather than just read and talk about it! :)

amyjo 08-16-2011 04:37 PM

couldn't get on all day either

Same here and remains so on some of my posts. Odd that this does not happen to everything, just this Board. Also, I now get about_blank.com trying to load before browser even starts with Board so something got through when site started coming back on-line. Sure wish I knew what has been transferred to my connections and how I can get rid of it. Hope the moderatores can get this stopped. The Board is so helpful and so friendly that I am now addicted to it and do not want to give it up.

All Thumbs 08-16-2011 04:40 PM

I had to try two times before this comment of mine loaded. What is up?

Try clearing out your temporary internet files.

MTS You are AMAZING!! You always have an answer or a link to let us know what's what! You are a valuable asset to our little corner of the internet! Just figured I'd let you know that you are appreciated!

OraLee 08-16-2011 04:44 PM

yep..the site was down for hours...made me actually clean and get some much needed cutting done!

Jingle 08-16-2011 04:58 PM

I got on here earlier at work, guess I was lucky, no outage then. I guess I just picked a lucky time.

jean1941 08-16-2011 04:59 PM

I felt out of touch with the world

LindaM49 08-16-2011 05:02 PM

So glad "we" are back. I was going through withdrawls. lol

alikat110 08-16-2011 06:55 PM

Withdrawals were painful!!!

oldcottontop 08-17-2011 02:05 PM

It's called maintenance....but they could have at least had the decency to do it when we were all sleeping :hunf:

Oh!!!! time zones you say.....Well... I guess, if you must. But could we have a little for warning next time?? :x

Withdrawal was terrible :twisted:

Know what you mean. I often berate myself to get off the computer and on the machine. Was busy sorting files & sewing yesterday so hadn't noticed the board was down. Got on in the AM and again last night.
Glad you are all back

PieceandLuv 08-17-2011 04:01 PM

yesterday and today have been a bear to get on here............

madamekelly 08-17-2011 09:43 PM

I had that problem too. I was afraid of withdrawal symptoms! :lol:
