Why is 'threads I'm on' still not working?

[EricNorthmansMistressOfPotions]

please?

Had it not occurred to anybody to post this in site stuff before I did??? Doh silly MNers

I just presumed someone had

I thought MNHQ knew ..because the message says its down for maintenance

Rebecca, not being funny or owt, but if

We are currently running maintenance on this area of the site and so it has been temporarily disabled. Please bear with us until the work is complete.

message is being displayed - surely MNHQ would know about it and not have to alert Tech/s about it and you would be able to give an answer without speaking to them...?

Seriously...is there a 'problem'? Have we been hacked?

Happy mole that just made me laugh out loud, DH asked why I was laughing.

I'm beginning to think something odd is going on

But it is dragging on a bit now.

My inbox is YELLOW, I haven't been on MN for DAYS and now I am not allowed to see what is in it.

Humph

Oh I get a different message mine reads..
We are currently down the pub and away from the site and forgot that this area has been temporarily disabled. Please bear with us until the pub closes.

No, we ARE here and we're NOT ignoring you. We're just trying to establish what's, er, occurring...
