What Is Up With the Forums?

Anybody else having this problem?

Every time I try to get the the forums from a link to the main page I get a screen that says "The Stardock Forums are currently down for maintenance.
They will return shortly." Along with the Stardock logo. I have to link in from a link that points at a page other than the homepage (I've been using the one about the new screenshot on the sinsofasolarempire.com homepage. They seem to be working fine but the mainpage just gives me trouble. This has been going on for several days now. Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?

I'm not getting that either, though the guys have been applying updates to them in the mornings the past few days. You may want to try clearing your browser's cache and clicking on the Delete cookies link at the bottom of the forum pages to see if that helps.

That particular issue should be addressed with the new forum builds over the past few days--if you still have problems editing, please send the details to support@stardock.com.

FYI, you should only be able to edit your own posts until someone else replies to them. After that, the link to edit should disappear.
