Why is the forum closed on Mondays?
The forum is closed on Mondays, you will be unable to access the forum on that day! This is partly to give everyone a break (especially moderators), but also to act as a reminder that it's not good to always be online and connected - it's good to step back and appreciate the time we have. If you send a message or make a post as the forum is closing the post won't be lost, it will be there when the forum reopens!
The forum closes at Midnight UTC (@000) on Monday and opens again 24 hours later at @000 Tuesday!
