The "check back soon" part did bother me a bit (as a severe forumoholic), but geez, this is a bit of a severe reaction, you might want to put some lotion on it.
The worst part was, the second day, when it was the same relentless "check back soon" message, hope started to dwindle. And on sunday, when they did it AGAIN, I didn't even bother checking back soon at all. To me, "soon" in computer time has a sort of Attention Deficit imminence. Like, really, if you refresh the page right now it might work. No? How about now? I like unknown a lot. I can deal with unknown, it tells me not to concern myself with it, because I don't have enough information to understand, and no one who DOES have that info is going to take the time to explain it, rather than working on the issue.
BUT, on the third hand (yes I have three hands, AND??), I am extremely disappointed that after this 3 day goose chase of promised upgrades - there seems to be absolutely nothing changed whatsoever in the forums. However as Gandalf has pointed out, I am quite pleased and relieved to note that we seem to have all our data here still, so someone is doing a good job regardless of their erroneous and probably canned downtime message. <3
