I've been trying to access the forum for the last few days now and keep receiving the error message

"Connection Problems

Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later."

Anyone know what's up?

I don't see any information regarding the matter on the main page of the site which is still accesible and I've tried it on several different computers in several different places so it aint just me!

Any ISDC members here able to shed some light on this? I miss the forum!

Thanks,

Adam

Hi,

They are moving the forum to a new server since friday, looks like they might have ran into problems. It shouldn't take more than a few hours.
