I beleive porka is down due to getting too much cpu usage on the server thats hosting it, so the company that hosts it are moving it to a different server.

Also as far as I know there isnt any fee to join porka, thats the online part of the porka/club polo merger, and the clubpolo charges a fee because you are supposed to get newsletters etc. I'm not a member of clubpolo though.

yo guys

porka is down

the reason behind this is because the forum is too busy, it is too active and has exceeded the servers cpu.

although this might be a bummer as life is boring with no porka but i guess its gone down for the best reason which is that we are just too busy for the server to cope

anyway porka is having a server package upgrade as we speak so it should be up and running soon, hopefuly monday.

sit tight, porka will be back better and bigger than before.
