As most of you probably already know, the site was experiencing some downtown this past couple of days. You'd try to access the forums, and wouldn't be able to. The reason for this is because the center that has the serves electricity went out and knocked down the DNS servers. These servers are what helps manage internet traffic flow and allow us to type on url addresses like wwww.invisionfree.com and acess the site. Withoutt that we'd have to type out very long ISP numbers to access these forums.
So that was knocked out, meaning that you couldn't access the site. This is a lot of background info, but I thought you all should know what was up. Thankfully, the servers have been restored. :)
thanx for the explanation professor
Yes, thank you professor. it's always good to know you are not just stupid when you can't access the site.
I didn't have any problems. Oh well.
Thanks professor, I was wondering why it wouldn't work. Now I know.
