Somehow, our MySQL database (the service that holds all our vBulletin information, such as forums, threads, and users) stopped functioning. I saw the database error at 7 a.m. this morning. I quickly tried the usual stuff to fix it, but it didn't work. During my lunch break today at noon, I logged in remotely and rebooted the server, which seemed to take care of it.
Not sure why it happened in the first place. BTW, I forgot the password to the Twitter account, so that's that.
