Well, I went to correct a misspelling in one of my posts around 10 PM (EST), I fixed it, then when I went to write a new post nothing would load, I remember trying to hit the forums a bit before that and they didn't load, but I didn't think much about it then. I checked peridocially and nothing was loading, then my site started loading again around, oh. 2:15 AM or so. I made that post soon as I could access the forums again.
Oh man, I feel your pain. I'll try to check on the forums a little more often, but currently it seems to be running okay. With any luck, it was just a hiccup on Dreamhost's part.
I noticed nothing. This was eiter because I wasn't on during the down time, or my computer is just too awesome to be bothered by such trivial things such as server hiccups.
As far as I can tell, Dreamhost intermittently craps out on some service or another. However, it is very intermittent. It's frustrating when it happens, but for some perspective, a hosting service with 99% guaranteed uptime would be down for 3.65 days combined every year, and as far as I can tell, we're down for much less total time. I report these problems to Dreamhost whenever I catch it in the act, but they usually get it resolved before they even have time to reply to my message.
Rest assured that if we ever had more than a few hours' downtime, then yeah, I'd raise a stink.
