Right now, when I go to https://wrongplanet.net/, I get a blank page. But when I go to https://wrongplanet.net/forums, it's fine.

The same thing happened to me yesterday, and then it fixed itself. It never happened to me before yesterday.

Same thing happening to anyone else?

Yes, I've had this a couple of times too. Refreshing the page worked one one occasion, but on another I couldn't get the site at all.

Also been getting a strange redirection at times (see separate thread below), plus a Google offer to 'Translate This Page?', which seems odd given that WP is an English Language site.

Same here. Multiple platforms, multiple browsers, and multiple operating systems.

The problem is not with the users, but with the WP server and/or software.

I've been getting it, too. Is there some kind of maintenance going on with the site?

Sometimes in the last couple days when I go to the main site, my Norton antivirus gives me a warning message & I get a page that says The Connection Has Been Reset & the site address isn't WP. I think this site has a virus or something.

Looks like Google's encountering this problem now too.

There's a blank description for wrongplanet in the search results, which would suggest that google is getting a blank page too when it spiders the site.
