it means that the server's very slow/down.

occasionally the admins will shut the forums down for maintenance, but you'd see the normal layout with a message, instead of the "cannot find server" page.

don't hammer (try to connect to the server repeatedly over a short period of time) either. it won't do you any good. just wait for a few minutes, and then try again.

When will the mods make a stickied topic on this? A new topic is made at least once a fortnight by someone talking about the bos server dieing. WE KNOW THAT THE SERVER GOES DOWN, STOP TELLING US.

It should be in bold red letters under the bored banner...or a pop up on everypage
There needs to be popups in the relationships section with answers to the questions people ask over and over again. Well actually, then there would be no need for that section at all.

Yes, but you never know. You could make it something of a white lie, for example "If bos is not loading, you have a virus, read this to find out how to fix it"

Then in the thread tell them to stfu.
