You are due a full refund of the salaries paid for administering PerlMonks. If it were censorship, then theorbtwo wouldn't have gone to some effort to make a periodically updated "static" copy.

Hey tye, your explanation is very helpful. Thank you for posting it.

I would bear in mind that myself and two others did ask for more information on the outage in a frontpaged thread before Anonymous Monk came to a conclusion about what he thought was going on. His followup, make of it what you will, came after four days of silence in response to the questions.

I'm not saying anyone was "owed" a response, or even that AnonyMonk's ultimate conclusion about censorship was fully nailed down (it wasn't my conclusion), just that I can conceive how he came to his conclusion after his question met with silence for so long.

++++tye and everyone else who tried to fix the server issue, ++ those who brought up an issue I was wondering about myself, somewhere near the back of my head.

UPDATE: Removed a username, which was only in here because I misread what the Anonymous Monk wrote and thought he was saying he was the person who started *this* thread, not the "Perl is dying" thread.
