It was down for a couple of hours for me. So I went and did something else knowing it would eventually come back. Forums do this.

Maybe we should come up with a contingency plan if something like that happens and we all lose contact with one another.

Maybe we could give one member the assignment of sending out a mass e-mail, should the site crash, to all members letting them know of the forum we'd reconvene on.

We should also synchronize our watches...

Yeah, you're right about this one. You could make some sort of active RSS frontpage, but that isn't the same.
Well it's a pity...

Same here. Altought I must admit that I thought it would have been nice had I been able to contact some other forum member to ask him or her if he or she knew anything about the forum being down.
Addict of communication :)

But I mean members here who know a way of blocking IP adresses just for the fun of it.

I use Google for spell check and I get blocked all the time. The irony is when I'm blocked I have to retype misspelled words to be redirected to Google.
