Thanks to all who emailed me to let me know that something was wacky about the site (not letting you login, not giving access to password resets, not letting you post comments or new threads ...)
The website definitely had a problem that lasted for at least 5 hours. After a bit of head scratchin, followed by error log digging, I found the cause. Apparently when you squeeze 135MB of awesome discussions into a 100MB database, eventually it starts refusing additional data of any kind. (Just one more wafer thin mint ?)
We are now in a new bigger "building", so try to ignore the echoes.
Sorry for the disruption. Carry on.
