Yes, we are back online, I was wanting to ask more questions on ubuntu.

What's going on with the Forums?

They were down again, this time for the better part of a day...

You don't realize how much of the information you might be looking for is on these forums until you can't access them for several hours. You don't even have to be searching for information on these forums in particular. You might be doing a web search on how to fix a problem and a thread from these forums with the relevant information shows up near the top of the list of results.

Ubuntu Geek and the guys from Canonical have put in many hours work. U-G has had very little sleep over the last few days due to this .

He will post when he is rested .

An enormous debt of gratitude is due for the work and dedication .

I think they are still having some problems...took me 8 or 9 times just to log in (more precisely, to 'stay' logged in...it kept saying "Thank you for logging in" then went back to not being logged in).

I agree with the withdrawal sentiment...kinda like jonesing for a smoke...(yes I am quitting)...

If I had any spare change to donate to UF, I would donate it straight away. That is how happy I am to them for all this work, with no benefits for them.

These forums still helped me figure out a problem today, even though they were down... yay for Google's "cached" pages!

Ha. I know what you mean. At least 2 google searches of mine today while it was down came up as here as the first result.

And yeah, also glad it's back up.

Ubuntuforums is my brain, when my biological one is asleep.
