Yep - I was just about to post exactly the same message.  Their hosting company seems pretty unreliable.

Yep. we closed up shop, sold the servers and notified the ISP that we no longer need their services.

:flame: :destroy:

Unfortunately, for the dreamers with delusions of grandeur and other mind numbing effects, Amiga is alive and breathing.  Just a minor hiccup while the ISP's new owners get their sh...sugar in order. :hammer:

Every website goes down once in a while, and it's not always the ISP's fault.  Sometimes the TTL settings on Internet routers get messed up and can't attach IP's to a DNS.  It happens, and usually fixes itself in a few hours to a few days.
