Are these forums shutting down over night?

[Jodie O]

Might seem like a silly question, but for the past few days at around 9pm AEST, I haven't been able to access these forums.
Is it a planned maintenance or am I just a little dense?

Could be the latter, but who someone mind humouring me.

Thanks.

Jodie, there is a script that's running at 3am PST right now that is bringing down the site. It stays that way until myself wakes up and I have to poke someone. I've sent off a number of emails now to the server admin to resolve this and it hasn't been done yet. I'll continue to pester him and hopefully this will be resolved soon.

that must be the reason i cant log on from 11am onwards (GMT)

[extra bacon]

what's the script for and what does it do (apart from preventing us from logging on)?

[Jodie O]

Thank you for the response Inde, much appreciated. I'll make a mental note to read everything that I need by 9pm for the next couple of weeks.

LOL, I've just received word that script will now be running at 9pm PST. Doh! This is so the server admin can observe it as it is running so hopefully it won't result in any more downtime.
