We had a DOS error...big time...Next week, the server dudes will be taking AO totally off-line, and rebuild the database. All features will return, and hopefully no personal data will be lost.

Please be patient, and bear with us as we get AO fully repaired and back to normal.

Thanks!

No data should be lost from what's running now. You'll just be unable to access anything forum related for the time it takes to re-import the data on the re-built server. It should go a lot faster than the previous outage.

I spoke with Rich today and we are waiting for word from AGD that this forum install has all of the content. Once this is confirmed, we will reinstall the OS on the AGD server and move the forums back. I am sure that the important allowed forum features will be reinstated at that time.

Just waiting for the word from Marcia.
