The recent downtime you experienced was because of two reasons. First it was because we were moving to another server, a much faster server. It's the vps in which TU was hosted on. Secondly, it was because our www.pokestation.net domain expired, reason being that on October 28th was the day the domain was registered and we forgot about it. In addition to that, after paying for the domain, something weird and unexpected happen'd. The domain didn't activate! Usually it takes about a few hours for it to do so but this was not the case. After sending in various support tickets, we finally found out that the domain didn't automatically go through their domain registration panel. Which is why it didn't activate yet. After finding out, we immediately sent it through and now here we are. All safe!

I apologize on behalf of the PokeStation staff for this unfortunate downtime caused. We hope you understand.

Ok, I found this again. I wasn't able to type in 'www.pokestation.net' or 'http://pokecheats.net' though, it said that the domain name had expired (still). Do I just have to type in something else entirely?

Also, I had to go through the pokesav pokestation place, then click 'forums' there to get to this.

It was the first page that covered up our domain when it expired.

Then something about childhood development

I wonder if it's code for something? :P

Because my other computer broke, and now I'm using the computers of other people.

You guys won't be seeing any random 403 errors like you used to before and there won't be any downtime like this ever again.

We used to randomly get 403 errors a few months ago, it was rather annoying.

With the new sites release coming up, things are going to go upwards from here.

The 403 errors used to happen a lot before the merge, it just doesn't happen on the forums anymore because we changed hosts. Now it won't ever happen again!
