Regarding the Downtime
I would just like to take this time to make a basic announcement on the recent downtime (Ai may expand it later possibly)
Anywho, while l dont have all the details from what l know there was some network issues affecting the server which were beyond our control meaning the whole server and sister sites were inaccessable over the weekend til today, tho l am not 100% on the particlars of the network issues the server is now back online, so thankyou for baring with us.

Now I can get back to reading some stories  . |

Considering that according to the windows error thing; it appeared to be a DNS error (Domain Name Server)
Glad to see the site wasn't shut down |

l have a little more idea of what was up now, it seems there was an IP assigned to the server that wasnt supposed to be which was being null routed meaning all requests were in essence all requests were going nowhere, sadly it took much longer to fix than it should have done since id have expected minimal file editing (problem was the server had to be accessible for that meaning only someone data centre side could fix it)

lm a mister 
and is much easier to understand words, there was a unique identifier (known as an IP) which was assigned to the server which wasnt supposed to be assigned which was set as a black hole which gobbled up all the requests  hosts and other types of providers do this sometimes when denial of service attacks happen, in this case the IP was assigned to our server when it shouldnt have been so that spesific IP had to be removed before the site could come back up.

This isnt the first time this has happened...
I hope someone's head rolls for this on the host end because that is just crap.
