February 3rd, 2009 
AstroNerdBoy NOTE: This was from February 3, 2009, when I was the admin of FUNimation’s forums. Ah, those were the days.
FUNimation forums are down. FUNimation is looking into the issue even as I write. I’ll make updates as I hear them.
Update 1 (6pm MT): A technician has been dispatched to work the issue. Site may be down for a few more hours. More updates as I know them.

Uguu…I just hope we don’t lose two weeks worth of posts again.
Or all those awesome avatars you uploaded.
I rarely go to FUNimation’s other sites, but everything is down at the moment.
Weird that your post didn’t show up until WAY after I made my main comment, Gyt. Oh well.
Anyway, that would be VERY bad if all those avatars were wiped. ^_^; I think we’ll be OK unless they’ve lost disk storage and filesystems were messed up. Unlike the messages in the forum, which are inserted into a database, the avatars are located in a filesystem as regular files.
Knock on wood, everything comes up as normal but they’ve got much bigger problems that I realized initially since I didn’t check FUNimation’s main page or sub-pages. They’ve been down at nearly 13-hours at this point, which isn’t a good sign, assuming someone’s working the issue.
But as I’ve seen, having supported larger websites than FUNimation’s in my career, an outage doesn’t automatically equate to lost data. ^_^
Geez, hopefully nothing too bad happened.
The forum itself is back up, I dunno if anything was lost though.
Weird I thought this was a new post… it seems its down again now huh? Or is it just me?
No, they are down.
