I apologize for the problems, we do not have an easy solution at the moment. The site will have to be shut down for about 3 hours for some serious maintenance. We are planning to do this at around 1-2 AM sometime this weekend.
Again, sorry for the inconvenience.
Josh, just to let you know. I for one appreciate the fact that you have taken time to respond to our concerns. By the way, this may sound stupid, but my knowledge of computers is miniscule. Is it possible that MR is being sabotaged?

Might be a corrupt database after the power outage that Josh mentioned in an earlier post. Probably need to do some database maintenance to clean up any corrupt records.
It happened again!!!! I think I might have found the problem. Is this what's running the server? If it is it might explain whats going on. LOL

That's unlikely. The service that is failiing is not exposed externally so it would be very difficult to force that type of failure.
I believe that the database metadata is corrupted after the power outage. We will have to reinstall MySQL and that requires taking the site down for about 3 hours to perform full system backups.

Better to go ahead and take it down to get it fixed....
take all the time you need,(just please give us a little heads up first-
so we can get everything ready for the withdrawal symptoms)!
