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 “error page” because we never know where the problem come from 😉 ---

It was down for around 18hrs in total. Couldn’t get on it last night either. Must have had tech issues or surely there would have been a splash page or announcement? ---

A redirect to a “Temporarily Down” message would have been helpful. I did have the passing thought that something may have been going on with the ARG. 😀 …and 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). ---

I actually had the same issue with ‘too many re-directs’ 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 😖 ---
