Many, many posts and huge threads can result in data becoming corrupted in the database. Mini crashes can be reset, but eventually it can crash BIG. The old site went down at the end of January 2008, and the new one wasn't up until the end of the first week in March, so almost six weeks total.
We didn't miss a beat, though. We all chatted over at The Beauty Bottle or at the old, old Net54 board. The link for that is in the database error sticky on Site Support.
