Is it just me or have people been having problems with the server and finding the site... randomly I'll get a "cannot find site" message, and have to refresh to get the forum...

is it just bugs in the move? or is the server hiccuping?

Could be either. I've switched the forums back to http://forums.yellowworld.org so people might get logged out for a second.

It was doing that to me as well, but I logged in using a different ISP and it was OK again.

I still get it about half the time, but once I'm in, I stay in. If I ever leave, its hard to get back in.

The google search comes up with the forums page from 11/12/02.

I'll PM you about my ISPs.

All apologies for the technical difficulties. Apparently DV2, our host's remote server site, is having major networking problems. I'll keep y'all updated.

Take angel_nympho's approach:)

I also found out tonight that there was a small error with our nameserver but it's been corrected.

I apologize for everyone's difficulties. There are two separate issues and causes to this: 1) the nameserver thang, which could have potentially confused ISPs and their DNS's, and 2) our host has had some problems with the company where our server is located. Apparently the company is causing some problems for other websites too.
