Glad the site is back up, but if you are still using the same hard drive it might be better to replace it now. I have no idea who is funding the hardware but there must some income from advertising to cover a new drive. This reminds me of the time when I had a worn out drive back in the days of the XT and I found that if I wedged a pack of matches under one side of the drive and only fastened the screw on the other side, the tilt angle would allow the drive to run on a part of the bearing that was not worn and I got another year out of that drive, but you can't do that sort of half-baked thing with a public board so get a new drive and install it at some light duty time. This site is the best thing since the 1953 Hot Rod issue that hooked me so I hope you can keep it going.
