I've seen speculation on other fora as to what's going on at BT. Most likely answer seems to be: that the server can't handle the bandwidth and Matt can't find an acceptable alternative.

I remember when IBC went down they were off for too long no longer bother although I have been told there back up under a different name.
BT has been down again for too long to bother. As I am not a surfer. I will stick to the two sites I am with now. That is Bonsai Chat and the Australian one. AusBonsai.com have a look it is a friendly site and exotics are welcome. Pup

This may sound like rhetorical question, but it's not: what are considered "exotics," in an Australian setting?

I emailed Joanie (a moderator of BT) who is also a member here and one of the nicest people one could have the fortune to meet and asked her about the problems at BT.
It seems that the shared server could no longer handle it and Matt (the administrator) is in the process of changing it over to a semi-dedicated server. Seeing that they have a lot of extra bells and whistles such as the Treebay sales site, chat site, etc. it's a touchy process and he does not wish to loose anything. It will take a bit of work but it will indeed be back up and running when these issues are sorted out. I consider BT a friend with a common interest and in the past they have been kind enough for us to post some little probelms here and there with this site also. So, let us all wish them the best of luck as I'd certainly would not wish to be in the same boat with such an issue as Matt is in the midst of undertaking right now. ~Phil
