If you were supposed to get an email from the forum but didn't (e.g. to verify your account for registration), email Wes at stararmy@gmail.com or talk to me on Discord for help. Sometimes the server hits our limit of emails we can send per hour.
Just after you went to bed and that Andrew had just hopped on... the whole site 'crashed' - as in, was no longer accessible. It looked like it was a database problem.
For some reason, some folks made it look as more than a random outage and started worrying about it. *shrugs*
Sorry, I was unaware. Maybe server maintenance. Things seem to be working fine now, though, so I'm not sure what the problem was. I will try to increase the frequency of my backups just in case.
