Oops I completely misunderstood what you meant there geezer. Didn't notice that quote was from three years ago.

Any idea what's up? And is anybody working on it?

I'm guessing whoever "owns" the site fucked up and forgot to pay a recurring bill. I've done it on my own photography website. It was a recurring credit card payment which arrived at my card within the three days between the time it maxxed out and got paid. A friggin' nightmare to fix.

What I can tell you is there was no discussion among the mods and admins that something was coming down the pike, at least none I was privvy to. Which is the primary reason I suspect a brainfart as opposed to a cold killing of the website.

Time will tell.

But what a fuggin' waste of decades of good input from a lot of smart people.

I guess its time to break out the trumpet and raise the flag. 

Sad, indeed.

Maybe not

Good ole' LouCipher did some digging and found this

I just went to the main site address and this was posted there:
Actually, I went to the nook just a day or two ago and it showed it was offline, which made me wonder wtf was going on.


"Remain Calm.... We are being held hostage by hostgator who will simply not address a support ticket to reinstate our site.... They shut it down because there were old backups stored on the site that they say violated the TOS.. and sure enough we didn't get their notice in a timely fashion because we dont check that email enough...
 
I will post updates here... we are also considering moving because of the slow tech support, and will let everyone know as soon as we know..."


Hmmm, interesting

Appears to be up and running again.
Maybe it had something to do with the country of visiting the page.
As they stated they would have some test going on on their site which could cause problems
