Ok, so basically the biggest table in the entire MF database has crashed. It's going to take some considerable time to repair itself now.

Taken the server offline while the latest repair is attempted. People F5ing the page and trying it has been possibly hampering efforts.

We rebooted the server this morning after a hung process hosed it but it appears to have reverted again. Looking into it.

The drives are back on Island and there's a data recovery being done tonight. Fingers crossed it can be restored. Worst case we lose Feb :(

If you're having problems accessing MF (and maybe other sites?) and you're using Wimanx DNS servers, try changing them to Google DNS.

Just to say, the DNS issues with MF should be fixed in the next day or so. In the meantime, switching your DNS to Google does the trick.

Forum will be offline for periods over next few hours for essential maintenance. Hopefully this will resolve all the speed issues for good.
