Yesterday, http://arqade.com gave a "We're offline" message while http://gaming.stackexchange.com was up. Today, the DNS entry is gone entirely: Chrome says ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

Now http://arqade.com was fixed but the following issues remain:

This breaks our close reasons due to the character limit.

  • If I click the arqade.com link I get redirected to gaming.stackexchange.com, so it's working for me.

    Apparently arqade.com doesn't work but www.arqade.com does. (I hate domains that do that.)

  • If I type the address in or open the link in a new tab, it works fine, but if I open the link regularly, it doesn't. Using FF 29 on Win8.1

    @badp www should just go away already. It is, and has always been a terrible terrible thing.

Not sure exactly how it happened, but something must have gone a little sideways during our datacenter move - sorry about that!

Should now be fixed, let us know if not.
