There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The only good reaction to those who think this is a disaster is limited to three words: "get a life"...
IT is my job and I'm not on any social network. BTW, the word social in that term is just plain wrong. There's nothing social about FB, twitter, instagram, LinkedIn or WhatsApp. It's commerce. And the damage that those networks/communities/apps incur to a lot of people is just plain destructive.
I'll get off me soapbox again... That thing is getting some serious mileage lately!

Nono, it was indeed changes to their Border Gateway Protocols which caused massive DNS problems. No account information was leaked. It was just human error.
