Default Why is this board down so much?

Not trying to be confrontational or anything, but down for 4 whole days after being down for a few days just the week before? Are you putting in new equipment or something, I hope?

I think you'll find that if you're down this often people will eventually migrate elsewhere to discuss Dom II, which may or may not be what you want...

I don't exactly care that the Boards are down, I just want to know why the forums need to be brought down for this so called "maintanance".

It's easier that way... much like it's easier to fix a car engine while it is not running, or re-roof a house when it's not raining.

I don't know all the details, but I know the Boards have been moved recently from one server to another and they've also been upgraded to a much newer Version of UBB. I think fixing the kinks involved with those two procedures is what has caused the downtime.

We are attempting to move to another peice of board software to help with complaints about this Version and to again have download capability. The upgrade has been put on hold, though, for the indefinite future.
