The password reset thing that would allegedly FIX the temporarily unavailable error has STILL not been implemented...
What are the admins doing...?

But if you know of any, please feel free to report them. I asked the staff if they'd promote some people to section Mods. FYI.

Oh, just an FYI... I've been getting the "Forum Unavailable" message every 4th or 5th page load pretty consistently today...

You guys are destined to do this over and over again....    EDIT: As I posted this, I got the "Forums Unavailable" message again. If you'll excuse me gentlemen, I'll go bang my head against the wall for a few minutes.

I've dealt with several spam bots here recently, evidently they are getting through the 'enter confirmation code' bit. Another bot protection method might be needed like a simple sum or something. If any of you see a spam bot post, please report it by clicking the little ! button on the post. It points it out to us staff.

The text images are completely useless, just a fyi. Q&A fed with clever questions will prevent all bot spamming, only human spammers will stand a chance.
