Hi All,
No, really, we're not dead!
After I made the previous post yesterday, our hosting provider had a further issue which knocked our site offline for another 24+ hours.
We will very likely be switching away from our current hosting provider. Every provider is going to have downtime, but an outage of this length tells me they did not have an adequate plan for a major event like this. I have backups of our forums that aren't terribly old, and I could have switched already, but I was giving them the benefit of the doubt. I'm not any more. If the site stays up, I will begin making backups in preparation for moving hosts.
