Yeah I've also had it a couple of times, I think unfortunately it's a gauge of importance to the forum

No further update Im afraid. MYU is aware of the issue and when a new hosting service has been selected Admin will do the data transfer. The current hosting is no longer supported and the site is being constantly attacked by bots hence the server capacity issues. That's the best way I can explain it with very limited IT knowledge.
I will ask for an update early next week.
Please just hang in there for a little bit longer until it gets sorted

The site has been buried with LLM related crawlers basically trying to grab the entire site (millions of pages), repeatedly. You can see evidence of this in the inflated 'visitor online' count.
I've made a concerted effort to block the worst offenders today which is shedding a good 20 requests per second. Sadly the last version of Vbulletin 5 that we're on isnt scaling horizontally very well, which means the forum cant make use of the compute power I am providing.
