Post Abrupt Downtime
Sorry Guys

We have been down for the past 12 hours due partially to negligence from my part. I had not realised that the credit card I was using for the server had expired and due to this nature the server was not able to be renewed. This resulted in the server which SaphiraForums is hosted on to be suspended.

It took longer then anticipated due to complication with our providers payment methods and the inability to for solutions to work. Eventually one was found and we should not have similar issues again.

Please excuse the downtime

Lol. I thought my computer was acting up. SO I was SO addicted I tried 4 different computers in 4 different locations and, nothing. This explains it. I am now on a labtop so at first I thought "Maybe labtops ARE better than desktops =D

I saw louis' status on msn and said "Meh, I'll see if it's going again tonight." :P
Desktops own.
Don't worry about it louis, everyone becomes an absent minded professor sometimes. :)

@Fanghur: It was so annoying to play World of Warcraft whiel I waited for this to come back up. Like you guys I would check every 5-10 minutes. My desktop tells me how many times I visit a site, and apparently I tried 104 times -_-. Oh and while I was waiting i went on www.youtube.com and found this really talented guy. He mixed Viva la Vida with Love Story (You know how I love my coldplay!) If u wanna hear it type in the search box: Love Story meets Viva la Vida

Dang. I didn't even know the site was down due to my restrictions. This is what I get for getting into trouble. I miss out on all the exciting stuff.lol And believe me, if you think one DAY without SF *****, try 5, 6, or 7 WEEKS. That's how long I've been gone. And I'm still on restriction. My dad let me pop on to check things out so I don't have to read 10 something pages to catch up on the latest gossip. Speaking of which, I should probably log off and eat.

Dude and you know you are not to override the word censors!!!!
