There was too much criticism about Google so Googleguy shut it down.

No, but after Sept22 and Oct17 changes I wouldn't be surprised if they did. You just have to be prepared for everything when it comes to G.

Besides, they have to maintain a good image for the stock holders. Unhappy webmasters making a noise on web forums is the last thing they need.

Brett is probably in San Jose trying to figure out how to fix his website from there.

Of course considering it is down in the middle of this update and that the demand must be huge as webmaster's are trying to figure out what is going on went on and how to fix their sites, it not going to be easy to get it back up.

Yep, and not just SEOChat, but all our sites! You see G has this secret file of the webmasters who post in forums, no matter what screen name they use, and maintains a list of WR's (Webmaster Rank).
When your WR hits 10; Baaam! you're gone...

I'm guessing the entire webhost got hacked. Lemme guess.. running Windows?

It must of been because they didn't install the new Junk Mail Update that came out yesterday! That must be it!

WMW is down. Threadwatch is down too for a server move. A bunch of good sites bit the dust with this fubar update or glitch or whatever it is, including mine.

I think we should all just give up and go take a
JAGGER Meister break!

TW is back up (simple mySQL mess-up), dunno about WMW (but was/is it a power failure?)

Alas, not as juicy as the OP's speculation

Just got a stressfull call from Eric Schmidt. Apparently the WMW crew wasn't too happy about the last Google update. According to Schmidt they have taken over the premises in Mountain View and taken the whole Google crew hostage.

Demands are that the last update will be completely reversed. WMW is probably down because their's noone left there to keep an eye on the server.

Eric says we don't have to worry about them too much. He said something about an inhouse chef who's currently cooking them a 4-star dinner while Google engineers are working on reversing the update.

Just to let you guys know...
