I will let my tweets from yesterday do the explaining :)

Thanks to Hostforweb for working to fix the DNS problem, which strangely only affected forums.cricketmx.com :?
@garmabeaneth @Szczur001 @Tunebud There appears to be a DNS problem with forums.cricketmx.com - I'll tweet again when I find out more #cmx
The webhost has escalated the issue to the level 3 support technicians. Will tweet more when I hear anything... #cmxdowntimecrisis
HFW have recreated the forums subdomain, CMX should hopefully be up soon. #cmxdowntimecrisis
A blast from the past, forums.cricketmx.com looked very 2007 for a minute there! It's restored now, just waiting on DNS #cmxdowntimecrisis
The DNS for forums.cricketmx.com appears to be working now. Thanks HFW tech support for working to fix that. #iSurvivedTheCmxDowntime

Battye - All day today I've been having trouble with the forum. I can click around the site as much as I like as long as I start from www.cricketmx.com rather than forums.cricketmx.com. I can't directly load forums.cricketmx.com at all and if I go indirectly thru the www pages, everything loads much slower than usual. Is this another DNS issue?

Everything is loading fine for me, forums.cricketmx.com included :?
Is it still not loading for you?

It seems to be sorted now. Took a long time though. I wonder what it was.
