Test after forums rebuild

The main site server crashed yesterday - which required a reboot.

Unfortunately, despite very specific instructions about which server to reboot, the tech guy rebooted the wrong one,  this one, 1st. Normally this would not be much of a problem but on restart the server showed a message about moving servers, which I had to investigate and fix. The once the forums could be seen it was evident that they needed a complete rebuild, as all counts were at zero.

So for the past few hours the forums have been being rebuilt and recounted - and is finally complete. It took about 8 hours.

Apologies for the out time.

Now let's see if this post works .....  ;)

Looks like the I.T. elves had decided that you didn't have enough stuff to do without giving you all that extra work.

Thanks for all the work you do here.

Now that the forums are back up, my sweats and shakes are starting to calm down.
