Error message again

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Sat there are 9.06am, typed a message clicked send and poof, error message, came back, clicked another message, SERVICE UNAVAILABLE

so went and run Spybot, went to the shop and bought a paper then made some toast

The thing i dont understand, as i couldnt get back online to log off, why did i have to log back on
