I guess the problem is fixed and it wasn't us.

* AusNick goes THERMONUCLEAR! *
(a few millennia later)
I kept all the old links, and they're still timing out for me. Probably DNS changes having to propagate through the network or something.
What are we going to do with two forums?
I wouldn't mind keeping both, but I dunno…
Then again, there's no reason why we can't have both. The Voy forum as our Primary, and have this as our secondary. At least that way if Voy goes down again (which it probably will), we can just lob in here. I might make this one members-only again, confine the sh*tlords and trolls to the one forum.

I finally got this via a google cache…
Network Downtime Notice VoyForums(tm)/www.voy.com has been experiencing a severe upstream network downage, as a result of an upstream network misconfiguration not under Voyager's control. The network block has affected We are actively working on migrating to get the site accessible while the network problems are resolved. (This page is a part of that process, and if you see it, it means our attempts are experiencing success.)
We've never experienced such downtime in over 22 years of operation, and are dreadfully sorry for the problem, the issues it has caused, and the prolonged issue with resolving it. Be assured, our computers, your forums, and your message data, are all in-tact -- it is just a network issue.

There you go. Now we know.
Two forums wouldn't be bad. It's just that we've got to find a way to get people interested again. Not as easy as it used to be.

Nick Nick, going thermonuclear isn't authorized. You didn't get the proper go codes or authentication! Back in my Air Force days, I maintained a computer system called 465L SACCS. That was one of several systems Strategic Air Command had to pass the Presidential Emergency War Order. That was the message authorizing the launch of the Alert Tanker Force, the nuclear armed Bomber Force and final go codes for the ICBMs. I just called it the "OH CRAP!" message. That was because if it had ever come, I knew in minutes I was going to have a very crappy day.

Bill, I think if that message came over the wire or the wave, EVERYONE was going to have a crappy day. If I can't go thermonuclear, can I at least go Super Saiyan? www.youtube.com/watch?v=rowQ55O4UFo

I wonder what will happen next.

I guess they are still busy emptying the "Bit Buckets". A very old computer joke!
