Still working on root cause, needed a full reboot.

Tapatalk has been upgraded and banning by thread ability is back.

We will be upgrading the forum software soon.

:2wave:
 
I wondered why I couldn't access the forum earlier today.

Sounds like some interesting upates.
 
Ok, hopefully we are back to norm. They fixed the issue and rebooted the server again.
We are monitoring.
 
I was in withdrawal ALL DAY!!!!!

I was freaking out!!!!!!!
Thank god its back.
I needed my forum fix.. Phew!
 
Honestly; I didn't know what to do with myself. I mean I was at work, but I'm used to being here between calls. I'd find great articles, and have nowhere to take them. It was excruciating. :(
 
btw, thanks vauge for your quick response. I did get this message about 30 minutes ago:

We are down for the moment, we will be back asap. Host found an exploit it is being addressed.
