This time it was down because the forum has been spiking the CPU on the shared host. In other words, the site is growing too big for the hosting product we're using, and we'll have to upgrade in the near future. I'll post more details about that soon.
So, for the meantime, to reduce load I got rid of the RSS feed on the main webpage (that was pulling information from the forum) and banned some spambots from the server completely. They were banned from the forum, but they were still flooding the site trying to get in and that didn't help.
We'll see what happens over the next few hours / days. If the site goes down again, it will mean the load is still too high, and I'll have to be more creative in reducing load.
Sigh.

Too big as in too many members? This might be a good thing? Lol. Either way, keep us updated.  I think I speak for most folks when I say we like FE a lot. I won't miss the RSS feed on the main webpage, mainly because I always came straight here. |

Yep, at time the comments are infuriating to me, so I'm hooked. I find this place kind of like the town in the movie "Purgatory", every one is a deadly sinner, trying to get on and stay on the straight and narrow, to get on the stage coach to heaven , with help from all the former desperadoes. Quis is Wyatt Earp, and DK is Doc Holliday.

I ground my faith upon Jesus Christ, and by Him I steadfastly believe to be saved, as is taught in the Catholic Church through all Christendom, and promised to remain with Her unto the world's end, and hell gates shall not prevail against it: and by God's assistance I mean to live and die in the same faith; for if an angel come from heaven, and preach any other doctrine than we have received, the Apostle biddeth us not to believe him. Therefore, if I should follow your doctrine, I should disobey the Apostle's commandment.
-St. Margaret Clitherow, while in prison

Thanks for all your hard work, Quis and Vox. You have a real treasure here and I'd hate to lose it. |

"Tenthly, one should pour tea into the cup first. This is one of the most controversial points of all; indeed in every family in Britain there are probably two schools of thought on the subject. The milk-first school can bring forward some fairly strong arguments, but I maintain that my own argument is unanswerable. This is that, by putting the tea in first and stirring as one pours, one can exactly regulate the amount of milk, whereas one is liable to put in too much milk if one does it the other way round."

I also actually got work done yesterday as well!
I sure missed this place!
I went to Cathinfo for a little while, but it just isn't the same. I am more comfortable here.
