Digital Forum Was Down - Database Error Message

I noticed Digital Point forum (also known as DP forum) was down since more than 12 hours ago. When I tried to access the forums this morning (GMT+7) all I get was an error message saying that there was a database error on the forum.

I still not quite sure what happened with the forum, FYI, Digital Point forums used vBulletin forum software, which is the most popular and reliable commercial forum software.

Any one knows what exactly happen to the forum? I hope the problem was not caused by some stupid crackers trying to DDos the forum.

I learned a lot from this forum, I hope there's nothing serious happened to it.

Update: The forum seems to be up again now, no explanation from Shawn yet but it might be caused by the fire that hit The Planet data center.
