If you have not read the announcement at the top of the page....

You need to know this is what it says:

 

1. The forums will be down for a scheduled update at 2am on Saturday 12/15.  The update should last approximately 3 hours and will be inaccessible during that timeframe. 

 

2.  In addition, there may be times when some content may not be displayed on your Activity Streams (Unread Content, All Activity etc) over the weekend (starting on Friday at 12:30 AM ET).  This is not permanent and will resolve itself over the weekend.

 

Thank you for your patience over the upcoming weekend.

Thanks for letting us know, Venn. I'm sure I'm not the only one who scrolls straight down to the beginning of the threads, and would have missed this.

Thanks!

 

I did see the announcement before they said just "read here".

 

I'm just hoping it will really be 3 hours and not 3 days.

 

I'll probably be doing tomorrow's Bon Voyage later today to be safe 😉

Thank you, Venn. I confess that I scroll right down to the posts.

Let's start a pool on how soon the complaining posts will start after the update about the lack of notification of the shut down.

Thanks, Cruise Critic, for giving us this information in advance!

I saw the announcement a day or so ago.  I am starting to look for these announcements.

Good idea kazu about doing the Bon Voyage today.

Me too.  But it's good to have a reminder, as I forgot.  Call it a senior moment of which I have more and more!  LOL.

There is a gap of several hours where there were no posts made on this board and the Ask a Cruise Question board.  That seems to indicate the outage did occur, but I can't say with 100% certainty.
