I could not access the forum for a whole day. I was surprised how it made me feel. Suddenly, I felt vulnerable. What if something goes wrong? Who will I turn to for help? Who was I going to share my experiences with? I missed the banter and discussion. The universe seemed to swallow me whole and I became just one lone traveller once again. I am so glad to be back!

I asked the question in our ETARC group on steam, hopefully someone answered so I felt less lonesome 
@Oldgods, If you work on the new CSD forum, could you at least let us an informitve âerror pageâ because we never know where the problem come from

I even googled âETARC Forums Downâ to see if anyone else was having the same problemâŚ

It was down for around 18hrs in total. Couldnât get on it last night either.
Must have had tech issues or surely there would have been a splash page or announcement?

Chrome was giving me the error âtoo many redirectsâ so I think was some kind of DNS issue. and yeah, started sometime before 11pm (UK) last night

I know, felt totally cut off from the Mother-ship!
I checked it around 18:00 GMT and it was down then, so yeah around 18 hrs but it definitely felt longer!

Was a lonesome time with âEtarc Comsâ out of contact. Was worried the pending server transfer had wiped me and Iâd never find my fellow Etarcians again.

Scared me at first, âwhere has ETARC gone?â But the error message said âredirect errorâ so I thought the site was finally updating. nope, just down. Glad to be back

A redirect to a âTemporarily Downâ message would have been helpful.
I did have the passing thought that something may have been going on with the ARG. 
âŚand also the thought that my IT dept. blocked me⌠so many thoughts going through my head and things I tried to bring the forums back up (in case the issue was on my end).

When I saw that ETARC was down, I assumed it was part of the âtransformation to the CSD forumâ, wish it wasâŚ

I actually had the same issue with âtoo many re-directsâ the day before, which I could fix. Not the day after when it happened again though ⌠The forum was stuck in a loop, felt totally lost
