Whenever I am on the site, it will just randomly go down. This happened to
me twice today. It hasn't happened before. Why is this happening?

at this point, we're not completely sure whether it's a zone problem, or a problem with the server on which the zone is hosted. We're working on doing a traceroute during the few seconds that the zone goes down. Perhaps with this information, we'll have a better idea of what's causeing it and what needs to be done to correct the problem.

Yes, this has been happening a lot lately. Usually it only lasts for a few seconds, but occasionally it has lasted for a few minutes. The site also lags quite a bit at times where you click on a link or refresh the page, and nothing happens. Glad to see you are looking into the problem.

Yeah, it's annoying. At first I thought it was my Internet connection, but I'm
glad it's not me.
