When I read the title, I thought it said "Website/ Forum Outrage - 12/21" and I was thinking "Hehe, Branflakes is smackin' down!". But it was just this.

BranFlakes has no offensive capability, his only ability is "Placate".

It is however.... Super Effective.

I kinda wondered what happened. Personally I blamed hamsters. I was starting to go through forum withdrawal, but then I got called into work. When I came home it was back up.

why is the forum forcing me to login just to read them ? , it has never before this downtime so bran is not telling us everything !

Don't know what you mean. I've been getting into the forums fine. Sometimes it loads slow, but that's probably because of my connection.

It's been doing that since the forums were redesigned months ago.

did not happen to me unless i want to reply to something before this downtime , but know i have to log in just to read this forum

I changed no settings in regards to being logged in or out to view forums. If its asking you to log in, try clearing your cache. I just tried viewing this forum from IE, FF, Chrome and Safari and was able to view it while signed out. Actually, I don't think any "unregistered users" settings have been changed since the new forums rolled out and are the default.

/end_conspiracy

EDIT: Also, as the outage has been resolved for a while, /thread

Cheers,
