Well I went hiking today but before I left I checked the forums and discovered they were missing… I called Garwal and told him the forums were offline just before I left.

Well the Experts spent all day picking their noses, our server admin (Bob) spent the day trying to get the experts to stop picking their noses and when I got home tonight Bob and I spent about a half hour brainstorming and got it fixed… I hope the experts aren’t getting paid for picking their noses.

It appears the problem was a simple small config file problem with the forums! (this is me rolling my eyes)
