Well, the bulletin board is back again. We have lost posts and topics, but everything should be stable again. We will know more in a few hours after people have some time to come back to the board.
It is possible that your avatar could be missing, as well as some file attachments. Hopefully any oddities will be minimal.
I have noticed some of the errant threads cannot be marked as read. Not serious, but we will continue to look into it.
