Good news people!
It turned out that the site problems were actually down to the server host. It was difficult to tell at first, but once we had checked everything and found nothing broken, then it became quite obvious that it was not us!
After many hours hassling them, the site is now functioning well and things will get back to normal shortly.To those who have been waiting patiently for an email from me....the wait is almost over. I hope to have you all sorted out by the end of the week.Thanks for your patience everyone!

All's well that ends well!

Good news today!

As you may have noticed, everything is getting back to normal!
It turned out that the problem was actually with our hosts, and not with us. Something that was not immediately obvious, but that became clear the more that we tried to fix things (that were not actually broken).
There may still be a few gremlins to winkle out of the system, but in general things should now run smoothly.

A great many of you have signed up to the Discord server, and then logged out, without having your accounts verified. Without that step you cannot be put through to the actual chat, so if you have signed up, but did not message LL, please go back to Discord now and answer the PM that is waiting in your inbox.

Thank you all for your patience and understanding whilst we were sorting things out.
