Turin Brakes official forum down?

[Andrew Fisher]

Having problems this morning (20th April) getting onto the forum.

Used my usual bookmark and got a "Could not connect to database error" Going through turinbrakes.com I got the forum index page but could not read posts.

Since the same thing is happening on the Athlete forum, run through the same servers, it looks like a serious problem.

Hmm... I think I couldn't log on last night either... Not sure though... Fact is that the whole of EMI's forumservers appear to be down... It's the same with koc and erlend oye, two forums which i also visit.

At first I thought they were doing maintenance, but it's a Sunday so that doesn't seem to likely....

Hopefully this doesn't mean everything's lost :(.

It seems unlikely that stuff is lost, since I got the index page. More likely it's just the typical server problem with php boards when the search table gets full.

Yes it seems to work sometimes, but not often enough to post or anything...

Hopefully things get back in action soon enough...

Seems to be back up now (and so is the Athlete board)

Only problem I noticed so far is that my Profile was set to GMT rather than GMT+1...
