Quick update to let you know what happened regarding the downtime last night.
Hosting company shut off our service due to non payment. However, we are paid up till next month. When they turned the service back on, somehow, the database table with the current sessions got corrupted. This totally borked the forum. Then, the hosting company rolls the forum back 24 hours to get it working again and in the process losing all the data/posts/etc for those 24 hours.
After hitting a brick wall with support and them telling me everything is fine, I went ahead and restored the database myself. It appears everything is smoothed out now. Many sincere apologies for any inconvenience this might have caused you.
