They were having database problems, but I'm curious too...

I hope we weren't attacked again... I get depressed when I can't get on!

Yeah!! What the hell happened?! I was excited as hell to finally be able to get on here after it being unavailable all day, but very surprised to see no e-mail or post on the boards filling us in on what went down.....

Hopefully we hear something soon... and hopefully, as you said, it wasn't another hacking!

Hopefully it was just a technical issue but I know that there are a lot of blackhatworld haters out there.

Yeah, I was wondering what happened. I've been checking in all day.

Thanks as always Troph. You're an invaluable asset to this site.

I was just browsing the forum with IE, and I was getting just a couple db errors. After a bit IE crashed and I had to end process to close it. When I opened IE again, my BHW favorite/bookmark had disappeared. All my other favs are fine. I don't know how/why that would have happened...I just thought it was weird.

*EDIT*
Well, that was kind of a janky post to be #100 for me...but oh well, JRVIP here I come!
