    You sure you don't have a cached version? I can't get it to load either.

    his is a cached copy of the requested page, and may not be up to date.
    Sorry! This site is experiencing technical difficulties.

    Down for me too. Kinda caused a little confusion, because the error message I got said "This is a cached copy of the requested page, and may not be up to date."

    So I cleared my browser cache, tried to load wiki again. Nope. I dont know if one "cache" has anything to do with the other though.

    Been trying on and off for about 4 hours, still down.

    I did find a workaround though. If you Google ddowiki, and then click on any of the links other than the link to the home page (the link to the "Classes" page, for example), it will take you to that wiki page and you can navigate around the site from there. But it does look kinda...different. Just slightly. Cant really explain it, just see for yourself.

I know this because Fred told me so, and Mind Flayers are smart.

    it seems to just be the main page. My google searches seem to be coming up just fine. but I can't navigate to the main page at all.

    Contrary to popular belief, the DDO Wiki did not spring fully-formed from the forehead of Zeus.

    Players already DID actually figure things out, and then put them on the Wiki.

    It didn't spring from his head, he had to come down to earth, shaped as a computer and ravish a server for it to be born.

    As a workaround, you can go to http://ddowiki.com/page/home and navigate from there. The frames aren't working right, but the content is there and the links work. It's just ugly. Hopefully someone who knows what they are doing with that thing can poke at it.

    Default Temp workaround solution

    I am using this right now:

    http://web.archive.org/web/201306030...//ddowiki.com/

    Pros: Doesn't look ugly

    Cons: "Caption" of the website as of June 3, 2013 (read: not up-to-date)

    Was brought to my attention a few hours ago.
    The wiki is still up.
    The wiki Host has been notified of the problem.

    Some have been experiencing issues, while others have not.
    HEY, I'M TRYING TO SOLVE THAT!
    STOP TOUCHING MY PUZZLE!
    TOUCH MY PUZZLE ONE MORE TIME AND YOU'LL BE SORRY!
    PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS GAME -- I QUIT! AND YOU SHALL DIE!

    LOL really?

    I mean....wow. Really?

    Not "really" as in "players really figured things out?"

    But "really" as in Really? Your "humor/sarcasm/poking fun at players that do always use the wiki during quests so they don't have to think" radar is THAT bad, that you thought that post was serious?

    I can't believe that...wait...

    REALLY?
