What's the rage? BGG is a free service, and it's absolutely amazing that 
they are working on it like they do. i know it suck to have it down, i 
havnt get the chance to check some rules issues because of it today, but 
blaming them the way you do is just sounding very ungrateful.

if you have a paid service like World of Warcraft, then i would say u are 
justified. but free site? come on!
