Yes you have to expect this when its hosted in a cloud so no big deal, a little annoying but we will just have to get used to it.
Other forums would probably be hosted on a local server with a tech that has full access to the whole shooting match and the fault will lie somewhere in the same room. When a fault occurs in the cloud based service there are too many links in the chain and the problem could be anywhere between Mexico and Canada. Not to mention service restrictions if cash flow is a problem.

Thanks for the update anyway Admin.

Cheers,
