There was a power failure at our hosting facility last night that took out all four of our server cabinets. This caused some downtime and some side effects that lasted into the day.
We'll be working with the ISP to find a way to ensure this doesn't happen again.
I'm not sure exactly what happened, but it seems they were doing installations for another customer and blew out a power distribution panel.
Unfortunately all eight of our 20 amp circuits were on that panel.
It took an hour or two for them to repair the problem.
Most everything was working soon after, but there were some lingering problems with stylesheets and the forums which should all be good now.
Again, sorry for the trouble. I'll try to recommunicate to the guys at the ISP that what seems like a small power outage to them affects tens of thousands of people trying to use PBase.

Doesn't your ISP have a UPS systems installed?
