The Digital Point Webmaster Forum, one the the most popular webmasters forums there is, has been down for over twelve hours now. It crashed a little after 6:30 pm, Pacific Time. I have seen this happen a few times before at DP, and I have found they usually have it up in running by the morning, my time. I am guessing the typical condition is, server crashes while the boss man is enjoys the evening away from the internet, goes to bed, and then wakes up to nightmare. Couple of hours of scrambling, and tada, the site is back up. Let’s just hope this is the case.

Digital Point is a great forum for webmasters new and old. You may have read, I have at least a thousand times anyhow, that DP sucks and so do their members. Well, I can only guess these comments are made by people who have been banned, or people who got burned doing transactions with other members. I’ve been building sites for over twelve years now, and have been a member of DP for three. I think it’s a great forum. Though I have been burned once, I have 100+ other transactions that went great. DP has a great marketplace, a great place to learn about building websites, and a great place to get quick help. Members very in experience from: shouldn’t be building websites to hardcore vetrans making six figures from their sites.

    • A lot of people don’t just see DP as a forum. It’s a revenue stream, so unhappy might not be the right word. I think it makes many user angry.

      It seems like they have been working pretty good lately, but what bugs me about them now is their ads pushed into the middle of the threads.
